Tyre pressure sensors issue

[Bricktop X PWR]

Tyre pressure sensor should not be MOT failure to start with - as far as I know. £300 for it - who quoted this??? Please name and shame them.

Again from memory, they last certain amount of time and then need to be replaced, seen it somewhere in the instruction manual.

More to do with the warning light on the dash?

MOT for tyre sensor, I would love to c that rule , anyway just adjust pressure a bit and problem fixed for a couple of days.

I was thinking the same but it turns out in the UK it fails if the warning light is on ... !

Use the dealer who sold the car for MOT and warranty for sender?

wouldn't work with my local MG garage, only some small garages would tend to "fix" the dashboard light, pass MOT and the light would be back on next week ...
warranty should cover sensors but I think they might be consumables so no 7 years cover ...

Has to be warranty no question about it.
