I have the above car with audible tyre pressure warning valves. I have a problem with one of the front valves and it keeps indicating that there is a pressure difference. Is there anyway of turning this function off?

Do you mean the valves give an audible sound or a buzzer within the car?

It's an audible alarm / buzzer inside the car

You have four transmitters and a receiver or in the case of renaults two receivers the only way to turn it off is to disconnect the buzzer so you cant't hear it or program the receiver into thinking the bad transmitter is ok,any agent worth his salt would be reluctant to mess with it as it is a manufactures fitted safety function.If it is a faulty transmitter see if the spare has one fitted and get that programmed into the system.

Firstly, Dynamic Dave - Apologies for shouting, I didn't realise my caps lock was on, thanks for 'calming' me down!!!

Andy,

I never even thought about the spare, obvious isn't it? I will check the spare to see if I can get it programmed. Like they say 'up there for thinking, down there for dancing'
