Hello buzzers. I've got a new buzz on order and I'm trying to establish if they have tyre pressure sensors in the wheels? You can't see the sensors - they're inside the wheel - but you can tell by the information available on the screen. If you get a screen that shows the specific pressure in each wheel, then it does have sensors. If, however, the screen only shows a basic warning of low pressure - probably a tyre symbol and a warning light - then there are no sensors in the wheels. Can anyone help? Many thanks 🙂

Hope this helps but not sure if I fully understand….
We have a buzz and got new to us VW wheels from a company that converts the Buzz Cargo into cool vans.. I asked them about wheel sensing and they explained the sensor isn’t on the wheel with the Buzz but on the chassis of the car. Just swap the wheels (they were a different size) and drive off and the car will recognise them which it did…. We had a tyre discrepancy yesterday and so they do work fine.
