Hey Guys! Just picked up my new B7 last night. It is such an awesome car, and I am so happy to be back in a A4.
I went and got the windows tinted today(20%) And ever since then the TPMS malfunction light keeps on coming on and going off and back on. Has anyone heard if the tint is what is causing this??? Can Audi just disconnect the system? I Plan on putting 19's on her in a few months and heard the TPMS can be a pain when changing wheels as well.

 

i don't see how window tinting could ever have an effect on the tpms....take it to the dealership, it'll be free to fix...

 

I highly doubt there is any connection between the tire monitor system and the tint. Take it back for service. Congrats by the way!

 

THANX!
The only reason I thought they might be related is because it is my understanding that the tpms uses a radio frequency on the a4.
And since the tint is titanium, I thought it could interfere with it.
My old car had a warning about using such tint with navigation because it could block the signal.

I will def bring her in to Audi.

 

One quick question....can we see some pics ppppllleeeaaasseee!

 

pics of her or of the car? and what do you plan to do with them. HAHA.

 

yes please pics of your beatiful car

 

Congrats and welcome!

 

HAHA...nah I meant the car.

 

Here are a couple pics with the 20% tint.
By the way I haven't seen the tpms malfunction light in the last couple days. So everything is great
