How old are the TPMS sensors on a Jaguar XF?

At least one of by tpms sensors is 7 years old with the original battery. My advice is buy valves and sensors cheaply if you can but you will need a garage to fit them.

Why are the sills on my Jaguar X-type falling off?
Spoke to my mechanic who said he had another customer with an X-type the same age. He offered to sand off the surface rust and repaint the sills, but once he got started the sills started to fall to pieces in his hands. In the end the customer opted to have new sills welded on, which cost more than the car is worth.
