Is anyone using the new Dill Bluetooth TPMS? If so, how do you like it?

I’ve been using a Dill TPMS since early 2019 and I really like it. I don’t want a system that uses externally mounted sensors on the valve stems. It’s time to replace the sensors mounted inside the tire and I see that Dill has a new Bluetooth version available without the dash or windshield mounted display.

I fully agree with your statement. I'm also interested in these but have no experience. 

Bluetooth, do they have an app to read tire PSI and temps?

@jd1923Yes Sir, the app displays pressure and temperature. I really like the Dill system but I want to do away with the windshield display.

I’ve been studying the internet and my truck’s RPO codes trying to come up with a way to display the trailer sensor feedback on my 2019 (built August 2018) Duramax Infotainment System. I have the I06 radio and the Z82 towing package but I don’t have the additional RPO’s to do what I want to do. Some information online says that you can’t add the stuff I need but I’ve come across discussions in forums that say that you can add add stuff after production.

There are always some that say you can't do stuff when often you can. I would search the GM/Chevrolet and Duramax forums. Also, Dill tech support may know something.

Update to my original post 

I replaced my original Dill TPMS system with the new Dill Bluetooth TPMS system and have used it for the last 3 days. These sensors are internally mounted just like the sensors on your truck and automobile tires. My truck doesn’t have the required RPO necessary to receive the sensor signals but the output is displayed on my truck infotainment screen when my phone is plugged in. I usually keep my phone display on the Dill app and keep Google Maps displayed on the infotainment screen but here is a picture that shows the Dill output on both screens

You can download the data from the sensors into Excel.

Dill recommends that you use a BLE signal repeater to extend the signal to your phone. I am trying different locations for the repeater but for now I have it on the left rear corner of the dinette and plugged into the 12v accessory receptacle under the dinette. I attached the 12v accessory plug to the repeater wires.

I am getting 100% signal reception with the repeater located here. Signal reception is noted on the app display.

I really like this version of Dill’s TPMS system compared to the older version that I used from 2019-2025.
