Aftermarket tire pressure sensors for 2018 340i

Can anyone link me to a good set (4 pieces) of aftermarket tire pressure sensors that will work with my 2018 340i?

Will these work?:

You need to check for part # first.

Go to realoem.com

You can pay a little more buying from tirerack.com , plug in your car then call them to verify. The tpms tirerack sell works properly.

I purchased mine from here:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000...287e76bbW7cNON

I just added on my summer set of wheels and all is working perfect and the price is on the half...
My car is an F30 from 2014 but I don't think that it matters, just to be sure if you are on 433Mhz

I like OEM, you can find them at Ebay unbranded straight from Germany. Exact BMW OEM without the BMW price tag.

Based on recommendation, I bought the Autel MX-sensor 433 MHz for my aftermarket wheels. EAN code of the black version is 6937357202402. They need to be programmed for your car, possibly as any other. Not the cheapest option, but works exactly as the OEM ones (Continental//VDO).

I've been told the cheap sensors can work well, too. While you can find they are not as accurate, the difference is often also in the cheap/low capacity batteries being used. These sensors should use the 350 mAh made by reputable brand (Panasonic/Maxell/Sanyo/...).

That's why I recommend Tirerack tpms... they are built by continental but it's about $156 for a set of 4 for my F36. Pretty good price. It should be the same with the OP 340i

OEM cost around $300 for a set of 4.

hi, i'm going to order the aftermarket tpms
previously, i had a universal tpms i use on my golf gti which work with android head unit (download the apps from play store), and remove it before the car was sold

question is, can i use those tpms on my bmw 330i?
or do i have to order from the link you guys shared above because it has to be pre-programmed for bmw?

TIA

according to realoem. your part # is same as mine.

just go to tirerack... there tpms works ... just submit your car info... yr, model, etc... they recommend a tpms... call them to verify.

I bought this one with this markings.

Check image... verify with the seller if your ebay route.
