>>(the single LF receiver is mounted somewhere behind the centre console).

I believe that is a RF receiver, not LF. It is only the four TPMS sensors inside the wheels that can receive LF.

>>Are you having issues with your TPMS system?

Yes I am. Changed all four sensors and they are not getting learned for the life of me & a few tyre places. Getting some OBD codes related to two of these initiators malfunctioning.

What's annoying is that there's no good reason to bury the check valve inside the spoiler. It could have been fitted where the inline coupler is, in the short length of hose between the car body and the hatch. Somewhere easily accessible.

Update: I found this document, so it looks like there is double-sided tape holding it on as well as the bolts.

Good find!  Think you've solved where your problem is.  :)

GENERAL / Rear spoiler on GD hatch
« Last post by BrendanP June 30, 2026, 13:32:09 »
Does anyone have tips for removing it? I've pulled off the interior trim and taken out all eight bolts that appear to hold it on, but it won't pull off and I don't want to use excessive force to pull it off for fear of breaking it. I suspect there's a gasket or layer of sealing mastic that's holding it on, or there might be some sneaky hidden plastic hooks just waiting to be snapped off.

The rear washer nozzle has stopped working and I suspect it's the check valve under the spoiler, but I need to remove the spoiler to get at it.

Fairly sure there isn't any TPMS equipment mounted in the wheel arches (the single LF receiver is mounted somewhere behind the centre console).

If you mean the TPMS valve within each wheel, then the link you found looks correct.

Are you having issues with your TPMS system?

Hi I recently got a second hand gearbox for my i30 with 38k miles on it (told by the parts seller). Unfortunately when I went to get it installed we found that my engine was not long for this world and I had to get rid of the car😭. I still have the gear box I got to put into it and am looking to get rid of it. I'm located in Hertfordshire and am looking for around £350 for it bought the gear box for 550.

Let me know if anyone is interested

Many thanks
Russell

Hi,

does anyone know the oem part number for those low frequency tpms initiators mounted inside wheel arches for the i30 GD ?
Or, for that matter, for just about any EU-spec hyundai or kia.

Thank you
