    Your tyre pressure sensors have batteries in them. They are at the end of the useful life.
    You'll need to replace the sensors, the batteries are embedded in them.
    Passat has direct TPMS using sensors in the tyre stems, with the receiver integrated in the CCM behind the glovebox.
    HECK! Does my Golf R build August 2018 have batteries in the sensors? No mention in my Owner manual but omission of that sort of advanced info. wouldn't surprise. Please let me know & if so it will be duly noted in my manual.

      No you don't have tpms direct.
      It's indirect via the wheel speed sensors being monitored by the abs.
