I think you misunderstood my post (or I wrote it badly). My current RS5 wheels do not have sensors in them as the car uses the ABS system to detect low tire pressure. I was under the impression that the Direct TPMS system on the new RS5 required sensors in the wheels so that the tire pressure and temperature (?) can be displayed in the MMI. Assuming this is correct, I expect I will actually need some TPMS sensors for my old RS5 wheels so that the info can be displayed in the MMI on the new RS5...

What dealership are you ordering from? I'd have to assume our cars would come over on the same ship.

@Tbone323 the new model years usually come out at the end of the previous year. This is a late release. I was looking forward to driving my 2019 for a few weeks in 2018 lol. As we can see that won't be happening.

Just got confirmation that my second build is complete. Vehicle also showing on dealers website. I'm only purchasing one so if anyone is in or near the Houston area there will be a Nardo Gray RS5 Sportback available to my spec.
Anybody else have any updated info?
