My goodness, I get it now. Thank you for clarifying and explaining it; I had trouble understanding that at first. Please accept my apologies if I led you astray

Unexpectedly, the CX-90 lacks TPMS in certain regions such as the Philippines and Latin America. For whatever reason, Sancocho2001's account used to have the Dominican flag next to it when he created this discussion. His CX-90 might not have TPMS if that's his location.

None of the lights were visible to me. I appreciate your help.

Was there a flashing or steady light from the TPMS? It might be a sign of a problem if it happened. Remember that there are some scenarios in which the TPMS system might miss the signs of low tyre pressure.

I don't require them, so you can have them.

In my opinion, the simplest option would be to install an aftermarket TPMS system. It definitely wouldn't be that easy to equip a Latin American CX-90 with TPMS sensors in the tires. The capability would also typically have to be enabled on the car, possibly using Mazda Diagnostic and Repair Software (MDARS) or a comparable program. That will only function if the device is not locked to a specific region and if it is compatible with the software and hardware of the car. Adding or replacing parts generally won't help if the vehicle's software or hardware doesn't support TPMS. If my memory serves me well, the TPMS and keyless entry wireless receivers are housed in the same module. Whether or not your keys function, among other things, may depend on whether or not the Latin American module supports TPMS. If it doesn't, then you may need to replace it with one that does. While researching this topic, I came across some online discussions pertaining to the Philippine market, where Mazda also chose not to include TPMS. No one in those discussions managed to activate TPMS on their Mazda. You might have to locate a helpful Mazda technician who is willing to fiddle with the MDARS settings if you want an authoritative response, though. Unlike the Volkswagens sold in the US, which used indirect TPMS, I don't think this is very likely. These could be configured to use TPMS sensors through ODIS, which is VW's version of MDARS.

Complete aftermarket TPM systems are something to consider, along with the possibility of obtaining OEM sensors and adapting them to fit your car.

Greetings everyone: I was hoping someone could tell me how to install or activate the TPMS sensor in my 2026 Mazda Cx-90. I had a flat tyre this morning and the system didn't give me any warning because the TPMS sensor isn't mounted on the tires in this version. The TPMS system is crucial, and I would like to have it installed. Warm regards

Since I have just utilised Castrol Edge, there is no necessity to add it subsequently.Thank you.

I am pleased to incorporate petrol additives every few months, but I have never been inclined to use oil additives. I prefer to buy a quality oil, specifically Castrol Edge, and replace it every six months rather than invest in that additive. However, if you have already filled to the maximum oil capacity, you will exceed the limit by 0.3 litres.

Not necessary with contemporary oils, albeit that is merely my perspective.

Hello, I recently serviced my 2012 320d F30 and I am enquiring whether it is permissible to add 300ml of Liqui Moly Ceratec, despite having already added 5.2 litres of oil. Thank you.

While there are no known problems with this model, the vehicle as a whole may have the typical generic Mercedes-Benz problems: Back subframe with corrosion Seat belt buckle, clock spring, and SRS problems ESL failure (as mentioned earlier) Rear wheel speed sensors that have failed Problems with Start/Stop due to a weak battery (Some may chime in with questions rooted in their personal experiences.)

Could you see how some specifics could be useful? Thought for the day!

Problems with the ESL and corroded brake pipes

now, get your popcorn...

There isn't much, but it's a decent, dependable (albeit somewhat noisy) engine 🤐

Please wait a moment while I recharge my crystal ball; I will return immediately.

Mercedes-Benz 220 CDI from 2012 Seeking advice on what might be a problem

Yes, I did purchase the jack and tools (I had a compatible wheel beforehand), and yes, I have used them. There was a holdup in getting the puncture fixed because it happened on Christmas Eve.

My 212 snapped in half the second I tried to use my jack on it. I wouldn't recommend it because of the price of the wrong jack.

A jack and wheel brace are standard equipment in neither my A Class nor the other person's. The air pump and the bottle of worthless stuff are all you get. A spare doughnut wheel, jack, and wheel brace were all things I bought for both of them. It is not in my interest to be stranded, retrieved, or held to ransom by a tyre manufacturer that does not even carry my tyre size. After a puncture, I did in fact use the spare doughnut wheel that I had bought for the A class. I'm really grateful that I had it on hand because getting a matching tyre was a two-day ordeal.

Awful, awful s****. 🤬. Should I invest in the right jack? I find that wheel brace to be quite useful. Superior quality.
