Cant review the product, sill waiting for it after several weeks since order. Whilst iCheck use a contractor, they have shown limited interest in chasing the contractor up. This is a small package and have received many other items from the same contractor from other suppliers in substantially less time Show details

Adam got Dean at iCheck to contact me about installing the booster for the TPMS. His info was very useful Show details

It is disappointing to read battery failure issues that some buyers have experienced. Hopefully for the rest of us, that was just a bad batch of batteries. Warranty or not, a product has to be fit for purpose, right?!? This is my third TPMS in the past few years. What attracted me to iCheck were the wheel hub temperature sensors - a simply… Read more

brilliant idea that will hopefully protect us from ever losing another wheel off-road on our camper due to an overheating wheel bearing.

I also like the idea of being able to quickly and easily swap the display between different vehicles that might tow the same trailer, with not wiring required.

The system was quick and easy to install - we didn't bother with the seemingly superfluous dust covers and anti-theft nuts. Who wants to remove an anti theft nut every time you air up or down.

The display is a tad small but the sticky pad used to keep it on the dash is great. It leaves no residue and the display did not move at all on during our recent off-road adventures.

The pressure sensors also provide temperature. It seems to be reasonably accurate in so far as that we have only seen 1 degree difference between cold temperature readings.

The hub temp sensors hold on well so far considering its just adhesive tape holding them to a very hot metal surface rotating at 100kph on road and bouncing around off road.

We had one of the hub sensors drop out for 10 minutes or so and then come back online when we were on the road heading home. This is apparently usually due to a known range issue so I have ordered the range extender and will see how that goes.

The solar panel seems to keep the display battery at 100% despite my vehicle not seeing much sun during the week most of the time.

All in all, I think this is the best TPMS I have seen in terms of simplicity. The hub temp sensors are a fantastic innovation that is to my knowledge, not available elsewhere.

The only negatives I would mention are the range issue (my hub temp sensors are well within the recommended max distance) and availability of stock of additional sensors and accessories. I am still waiting for more sensors and a range extender.

Works ok on the car , but caravan drops out regularly which is really why I bought them........Alarm goes off now and then too, and there was nothing wrong with the tyre pressures when I stopped again, so you end up not really taking much notice of them .....weren't cheap either! Show details

Icheck TPMS – Very easy to install. Virtually no set up unless you wish to change the location of 1 or more sensors and then that is very easy also. Show details

TPMS 8 sensor kit gives peace of mind – Wow, this unit is a game changer. When towing a single axle van the peace of mind knowing the tyres are as they should be is fantastic.. We’ve been using the unit for 16 months and cannot be without it. Best service ever from Sam who actually replaced our unit immediately when a button collapsed recently on the unit. We have them on the car and… Read more

caravan and can see at a glance with the solar/12volt unit sitting on the dash where our tyre pressures are at. On road and off road setting - love love love !

Battery failed – This tpms has a 2 year warranty which does not cover batteries. The internal battery on my tpms failed after 18 months. I contacted Icheck and was told that for the battery in this display unit to last 18 months is "not bad" and "acceptable". They offered me another display unit for $99... They also sell extended warranty which gives you a total… Read more

of 3 years! Well, isn't it convenient the battery won't even last the original warranty and isn't covered. After being told my icheck tpms isn't covered under warranty, I decided to open it up which is when I discovered a swelled up cheap Chinese lithium polymer battery which can be found online for $3 to $4. Sam from icheck also said that I could keep using it while plugged in. Please the photo of the old and new battery I purchased. Its a very bad idea to continue using this product whilst the battery is in this horrible condition. I'm sure his warranty isn't going to cover my car burning to the ground! Disgraceful advice from icheck!

For the price of these things, this is ridiculous. Don't waste your time, just buy the cheapo ones. They probably last longer.

Edit- I left a review on one their Facebook posts. I'm now blocked. Obviously sensoring and blocking bad reviews. Another red flag.
