Or replace your sensors and have that handy system working. You can buy them reasonably priced here

You have to have VCDS and have to code to turn them off. The only issue is for earlier models 2004-2006 they can be turned off because it was not law then. TPMS became law n 2007 so I don't think you can turn yours off.

I have the light too and was going to disable in VDCS but these look ok on price but I am in the UK.
Has any one found any decent priced TPMS sensors in the UK?

You can turn of TPMS with VAG. I did on my 2008 S8 when I mounted snow tire and wheel package:
