TPMS Lifespan - 2018 Tundra

My Tundra is about 7 1/2 years old (bought new) and I will be needing a new set of tires in about 10,000 miles.

I wonder what the life expectancy of the TPMS sensors are. I'm thinking it might be wise to pre-emptively replace these when I get the new tires mounted.

Any thoughts?

I'm on my 15th year with originals. They're acting up during winter. No, not from lower pressure. Voltage probably drops below threshold because batteries are cold in them.

 

Wow, that's a good long life. Maybe I'll skip replacing them at the next tire mounting.

Thanks for posting!

Any others with thoughts?

I just replaced them on my 2015 because I wanted to do it when tires were swapped and not when the batteries die.

 

1 went out on my 2016 last winter & am replacing them all. 9 years ain’t bad.

 

10 years is the average life expectancy.

 

My current tires on my 2019 will probably bring me to 100K miles. I will just have them done at that next replacement to avoid having them die one at a time.
A Jeep I had, they lasted 8 years. Maybe the cold winters shorten life.

 

At 9 years mine started doing the same thing when it got cold - also not from low pressure but the sensor quits reading for a bit then works again when warmed up a bit.

I may actually still have one original sensor left at 11.5 years but I thought we swapped the last one out with the latest set of tires around Christmas.
