TPMS from C6 to C5
Wondering if TPMS sensors from a C6 car (09) will work in an 02 C5 car? I know they are the same frequency sensors (315Mhz) but listings seem to show 2 different sensors and they do look different.
Afkt seems to say they will work but I would like a more concrete answer.

They will not work-the C5 computer will not detect the later sensors. If you are on the original C5 TPMS, do not would not bother to move them over to the C6 wheels as the battery life is approx. 10-12 yrs. Ask me how I know!

No, the C6 sensors will not work with the C5.
And moving to C5 Tech.

Anyone know if the C5 TPMS will fit properly on the C6 rims?

Yes. I ordered new C5 TPMS and put on a set of wheels from a 2012 C6. No issues.
