And breath and calm.

spoke to the garage this morning and they're mortified. Have been given 2 options a refund in full or they will replace the front offside tyre and fit new valves all round. Which option would you take. My initial thought is to have nothing whatsoever to do with them again, but I suppose mistakes happen (mainly to me it seems)

Get your money back and have them fit rubber valves and a new tyre and use the money to get a IID tool to switch the TPMS off....simples Thumbs Up GONE 2010 Facelifted 3.6 TDV8 - Stornoway Grey + 22" Overfinch Olympus

I get that occasionally since I replaced my TPMS valves. If I disconnect the TPMS ECU in the right hand side cubby at the back, it clears after a few miles, then the cycle repeats. Planning on getting IID tool to check if code needs cleared. 2007 TDV8 Vogue SE Java Black

I just want the fecking thing sorted Crying or Very sad

I'm beginning to think the car's jinxed. I'm worrying now that the recovery mechanic has damaged something by tightening the valves using a pair of pliers rather than a torque wrench. I hold the original garage solely responsible though.

This really hasn't been a great start to Range Rover ownership, much more and it'll be going up for sale Sad

Sorry Ash, only just noticed your post. Many thanks for the offer of help. I got it sorted only for the garage replacing the valves to cock up Rolling Eyes

Most of my comments are half in jest, but to be honest I didn't find it particularly funny when the tyre deflated at 50 with my daughter in the back

Hopefully sorted now Smile the garage replaced the damaged tire as well as a faulty sensor. The tyre pressure warning light did flash up a few times on a drive out tonight, but only for a couple of seconds each time and with no warning text. Is this usual?
