Understanding SUPRA TPMS Compatibility
The Toyota SUPRA (A90/A91, 2020–present) is built on the BMW CLAR platform, sharing its TPMS system with the BMW Z4 (G29). Factory SUPRA sensors operate at 433MHz, not 315MHz. This is a critical distinction: the RDE022V21 is a 315MHz sensor designed for older European platforms (Audi, Bentley, early BMW, Ferrari, etc.).
If you own a SUPRA, the RDE022V21 will not communicate with your vehicle’s TPMS receiver. You need a 433MHz sensor (such as BH-Sens RDE024V21 or equivalent). However, if you are retrofitting SUPRA wheels onto a 315MHz-compatible vehicle (e.g., a 2010 Audi A8, 2008 BMW 5 Series, or a Bentley Continental GT), this sensor becomes relevant.
Vehicles Where RDE022V21 Fits (Not SUPRA, But Related)
The RDE022V21 is a clamp-in sensor with a metal valve stem, OE-cross-referenced to numbers like 249363, 290569, 4F0907275A, and 7P0907275A. These cover:
| Vehicle Brand | Model Examples | Year Range (Typical) |
|---|---|---|
| Audi | A6, A8, Q7 | 2005–2015 |
| BMW | 3 Series (E90), 5 Series (E60), X5 (E70) | 2006–2013 |
| Bentley | Continental GT, Flying Spur | 2007–2015 |
| Ferrari | 612 Scaglietti, California | 2008–2012 |
| Porsche | Cayenne (955/957) | 2006–2014 |
Note: Always check your specific model year. Some later BMW models switched to 433MHz.
How to Verify Fitment Before Buying
Don’t rely solely on a vehicle brand list. Follow these steps:
- Check your TPMS frequency. Look at your original sensor (remove wheel/tire) or use a TPMS diagnostic tool. The frequency is printed on the sensor body (e.g., “315MHz” or “433MHz”). If your car uses 433MHz, the RDE022V21 will not work.
- Cross-reference your OE number. Remove your current sensor and read the OE part number (e.g., 4F0907275A). Compare it to the RDE022V21’s OE list: 249363, 290569, 4F0907275A/C/H, 7P0907275A, 7PP907275G, 99760602321, F11001223002, F11001495003. If your number is on this list, the sensor is physically compatible.
- Verify valve type and torque. The RDE022V21 is a clamp-in sensor with a metal stem. It requires a specific torque (usually 35–40 in-lbs for the valve nut). Do not guess—check your vehicle manual or the sensor’s included spec sheet.
- Test before final installation. If possible, program the sensor with a TPMS tool (e.g., Autel, Bartec) and test communication with your vehicle’s module. Some aftermarket sensors need relearn procedures.
Recommended Part
If your vehicle matches the OE numbers above and uses 315MHz, the RDE022V21 | BH-Sens 315MHz TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor | Fits Aston Martin, Audi, BMW, Bentley, Ferrari & 5 More | OE# 249363, 290569, 4F0907275A is a reliable, pre-programmed replacement. It is a direct fit for Audi, BMW, Bentley, Ferrari, and others listed—just not for the SUPRA itself unless you are swapping wheels.
FAQ
Does the RDE022V21 fit a 2021 Toyota SUPRA?
No. The 2021 SUPRA uses 433MHz TPMS sensors. The RDE022V21 is 315MHz and will not communicate with the SUPRA’s receiver. You need a 433MHz sensor like the BH-Sens RDE024V21.
Can I use this sensor on a BMW Z4 (G29) that shares the SUPRA platform?
No—the BMW Z4 G29 also uses 433MHz sensors. Only older BMW models (E90, E60, E70) with 315MHz systems are compatible.
How do I know if my Audi uses 315MHz or 433MHz?
Audi models from roughly 2005–2015 typically use 315MHz in North America and 433MHz in other markets. Check your original sensor or use a TPMS scan tool to confirm. The RDE022V21’s OE number 4F0907275A is common on 2006–2011 Audi A6/A8/Q7.
What if my OE number isn’t listed?
If your OE number is not among those listed (249363, 290569, 4F0907275A/C/H, 7P0907275A, 7PP907275G, 99760602321, F11001223002, F11001495003), the RDE022V21 is likely not a direct match. Contact the seller with your OE number for confirmation, or search for a sensor that specifically covers your vehicle.
