Fahrwerksvermessung should translate to steering wheel alignment, which could need to be done if a front wheel has bumped in to something. Depending on which car it is 213 EUR for the steering wheel alignment is on the high side. If it is a Mercedes for instance it requires more work, due to several points of adjustment, to do the alignment, and the price might be fair.
In my opinion the sensor for TMPS can and should be reused. It is unreasonable to be billed for a new sensor.
