Tirerack sells the Conti kit and may also sell replacement canisters. You might check with them.

Here is the replacement for comfortkit: Continental ContiComfortKit Replacement Parts

More on Comfortkit vs slime (posted in bimmerfest):

With respect to the Continental tire kit, I was corrected by one of the Tire Rack guys and went and checked. The sealant in this kit is not like Slime, it is latex based and should be removable so that a plug could be installed. It might depend on who you asked to install the plug but at least it would give you a chance

.

From tirerack site on comfortkit:

I do feel I should warn prospective buyers; although the ContiComfort Kit is a great alternative to folks with out spare tires. If your vehicle does have a direct tire pressure monitoring sensor the latex liquid will damage the sensors. As the Latex liquid coats the inside of the tire it does get into the sensor and essentially blinds the sensor from reading the tire pressure.

and

Every ContiComfortKit has a "use before" date printed on a seal that is placed adjacent to the instructions on the face of the ContiComfortKit. The "use before" date identifies the latex liquid tire sealant's forty-eight month life span from the time the sealant was bottled. Just before the "use before" date is reached, you should replace the sealant canister with a new one by ordering ContiComfortKit Replacement Parts that includes a new bottle of sealant.

Anyone know how much to replace those sensors if they get damaged?

Wonder if you can substitute the conti comfortkit replacement latex into this kit: Amazon.com: Slime Powerspair - 48 Piece Kit Tire Repair Kit: Automotive if so, sounds like that might best as it seems the latex removes more easily and the Powerspare pump inflates in 3 minutes.

BTW, if preemptively replace tires w/non-RFs I'm looking at these (new version): Continental ExtremeContact DWS

I put these tires on my wife's quattro and they are great, nice grip. Excellent in wet weather and snow (so far), cornering is excellent too. They ride quiet as well. Thanks for the heads up on the replacements sealer. If you have to replace the TPMS sensor they about $220.00/set.

Do not buy the MotoSpair. It is designed for motocycle smaller tire. The package comes with 8oz sealant which is not enought for SUV tire and the pump is much less power.

The one I got is like the one from Target but mine comes with jumpstart cable, first aid kit etc.

The one you want from Northern tool is the most powerful pump and available at Walmart store too. I compared the Power Spair flat tire kit and the one i bought safety spair kit 37pcs. Size and weight about the same. But Slime rep said safety spair kit is more friendly to TPM cause the material is different. The safety spair kit is pure liquid but all other Slime including power spair kit with some residual stuff in it. You will see the difference in person when you compare these two bottles. That's why only saftey spair kit can pump air and slime in one step. All other Slime kit requires you to change the value with their adpater to pass through Slime material.

Hope not confusing you

MotoSpair Tire Repair Kit - JCWhitney


Slime Safety Spair : Target

Each a bit different, leaning towards the one at Northerntool. Compressor looks much more substantial and the plugs could be handy too.

Not at all; wondering how/why slime would put a different product in two different kits tho. And, still wondering if slime is less/more risky to TPMS than latex.

One is squeezed by hand from a bottle and can be thicker, with more little fibers and bits of rubber (you remove the valve stem with the onlder, two-step process.) To do the one step and have the air pump pump the solution into the tire past the air valve, it must be thinner and smoother.

Thanks Penguin and US_Matrix. After reading the link Penguin provided about Slime on TPMS, I'm sold on the one step slime (even with the smaller pump).

I only find two safety models:
Amazon.com: Slime 70005 Safety Spair Flat Tire Repair System: Automotive
and
Amazon.com: Slime 50051 Safety Spair Roadside Emergency Essential Kit: Automotive - guessing this is the one Matrix has (not showing on Target.com). Looks like the only difference is the $20 for the triangles, jumpers and bandaids (which I already have but might be nice to have all together in one case). I'm guessing the jumpers are probably not great but hopefully only for just in case (like the whole kit!).
