Tire pressure sensor error in Mercedes C-Class 2020: experiences and solutions

Tire pressure to low

Hi guys, has anyone here ever had problems with the tire pressure sensor on a 2020 petrol Mercedes C-Class (mileage: approx. 59915 km)? My car is constantly showing low tire pressure and I suspect that this is where the problem lies. Since my last experience with my garage was pretty poor, I'd like to hear your stories. So, how did you solve something like this and how were you treated at your garage? I'm grateful for any tips! Many thanks in advance!

Hello, I had a similar problem with my 2017 diesel Mercedes E-Class. The car kept telling me that the tire pressure was too low. And after a few headaches, the rabbit was actually in the hole - the control unit of the tire pressure monitoring system was defective. So I had to go to the garage to replace the control unit. It was a serious matter, because without a properly functioning control unit, the tire pressure monitoring system is practically useless. So yes, compared to a flat tire or something, I would say it's a more serious problem. Fortunately, the guys at the garage were quite correct. They explained everything that needed to be done and were quite quick with the repair. So I can only advise you to have it checked if you haven't found a solution yet. Take care and good luck!

Hey, that doesn't sound so rosy, but it's good to know that you've finally found a solution. Let me guess, it certainly wasn't a bargain to have the whole thing fixed, was it? Can you remember what you ended up paying and have there been any other incidents since? Thanks for your help! Take care!

Hey, you're quite right, it certainly wasn't a bargain. I had to fork out €355 to get the control unit of the tire pressure monitoring system working again. But since the visit to the mechanic, everything has been running like clockwork and the signal error from the tire pressure sensor has been rectified. To be honest, the cost is worth it to me when I know that my car is safe again. And fortunately I haven't had any further incidents since then. Take care and good luck with your Mercedes, hopefully it will stay with you for a long time!

Hey, it's no surprise that such a small part can be an expensive story. 355 is not a small amount, but your view makes sense to me. You can't cut corners when it comes to safety. Well, if there's no other alternative, I'll have to bite the bullet and do the same. Thanks for your support, that was really helpful! See you then and keep rollin'!

Hi! Sorry to hear about your tire pressure sensor issues. I haven't had that problem, but a friend had a similar experience. They fixed it by resetting the sensor. How was your experience with the sensor reset? Did you try contacting a different garage for a second opinion?

Before you decide to replace the control unit, you might want to try resetting the tire pressure sensor. This can sometimes solve the problem. If the issue persists, then it's best to have it checked by a professional. Remember, safety should always be your priority.
