Tyre Pilot STP 116 Tyre Pressure Monitoring System with 8 Sensors

good price all set to go not used yet .

Three of the four sensors would not work correctly. The defective three sensors registered with the monitor OK but when I screwed the sensors onto the tyre valve I could not screw them in sufficiently far to get a PSI reading on the monitor. The sensors are supposed to push down the tyre valve as they are screwed on but the defective three were not making a good contact with the valve. One of the sensors did fit as intended and I got a good PSI reading on the monitor for just one. The vehicle I tried to fit them on is a motorhome which of course has the same tyre valve in each of the wheels. Why one of the sensors would fit correctly but the other three would not fit is a puzzle. Clearly the fit tolerances in the sensor design needs addressing.

In spite of a lifetime in Engineering etc. I found this a little swine to set-up. Instructions sadly lacking in some procedures e.g. how to programme your trailer/caravan for only 2 tyres on one axle instead of all 12 tyres shown. I did eventually get it working ok only to find the following day that all the individual tyre settings had disappeared---brilliant !! It was start again time. I will persevere yet but it could be on its way back for a refund. The instructions seem to presume that you know as much as the person who wrote the instructions ! Watch this space. I will give it a fair try.Since writing the above review I have now had to re-pair the sensors to the Monitor 3 times. It seems that by switching off at the side switch (not mentioned in the instructions) it lost the settings---so, never switch off at that switch !!The device will go into sleep mode itself if there is no movement for 10 minutes---and will restart when it senses movement. The big test will be tomorrow on the Motorway and the following weekend I hope to test all 6 sensors with the caravan attached Watch this space. Tried it out on the Motorway this morning at sustained speeds of 60-70 mph. After a few minutes one tyre pressure display went blank, followed shortly after by a second one going blank---then a third one, leaving me with only one pressure display working until leaving the Motorway. It has failed its major test---the most important one---Motorway speeds. There is no point trying all 6 sensors next week with the caravan in tow. Altogether an unreliable purchase. I had hoped for better things from Snooper. Or, have I just been unlucky and been landed with a faulty one?? Afraid it will have to be returned. I have no confidence in the device. As a pensioner I cannot afford to hang on to an expensive failureAbout 3 weeks have passed now since writing the above review.I have been advised today that the device was faulty---it was returned to Snooper to be checked.Hopefully other purchasers will have better luck !!

Very easy to fit. Works as it says it will

good safety product

It worked for 13 months ok. Then a sender refused to work and they did sent me a replacement. Now 2 months later another sender has packed up and they do not want to know me. Save your money its rubbish.

Purchased 18 months ago and used for a handful of journeys.Worked ok although display not very bright and impossible to read In sunlight trying to add some air to tyres but one sensor seems to be seized to the valve and cannot get it offLooks like a new sensor and valve requiredAnother £20Would not buy this system again

Écran déjà rayé à la réception du colis. Impossible de programmer 2roues sur 4. Manque de sérieux flagrant. Je déconseille vivement ce produit . Je vais faire une bonne remarque à SNOOPER France.
