You can get em aftermarket for around $100. Do NOT pay the stealership..

I agree. I purchased aftermarket TPMS sensors for my winter tires and rims on my 2016 340i, and have not had any issues. Going on 4 yrs now. i think you just need to make sure you get the ones mated for your year and model. I believe the F30 2012 - 2015 used a different frequency than the F30 for 2016 +.

Look up when your car was manufactured using mdecoder.com. The sensors changed in early 2014. I needed part number RDE047V21 for my 1/29/14 build.

FWIW, there's a lot of the BMW OEM ones on ebay for less than $100 for a set.
The aftermarket ones are OK, but some don't always work.

I have a spare set here, they are a bit unusual with longer grey valve stems. I got them from apex wheels. 50 shipped, dm me.
