make sure the pressure is at the recommended 35 psi, and if thats the case you might have a bad sensor

If thats the case, would the dealer replace without charges ? do you think ? my car is brand new, not even 1k yet

TPMS sensor on one of the tires may need a re-set.

YOu are driving it and not just turning it on, right? Takes a few miles.

Yeah, or a simple reset on the sensors as noted above. Dealer, or any tire store can do this for you. It's about a 5 minute job

Wait, you can turn the tire pressure warning on? I didn't touch anything. It came on one day. I check the pressure and got them up to 35 psi and it's still there. Didn't happen with my TL. I guess I have a bad sensor

i run 37.5psi on my hobby cars. both have recommendation of 35psi but it's too mushy for my motoring needs.

in the winter time when i hiberate the cars, i usually put 40psi or more to compensate for the colder temps inside the garage in the winter. about 1psi per 10F change.

Fine... Be sure to point that out to them next time you're at the dealership...

Folks that don't know much about cars are regularly put at risk by bad set-up practices. 45 psi in the tires, Spring shipping spacers not removed, wrong locking lugs installed....I could go on and on..

I always put an extra 2 psi in for fuel efficiency.

I recently purchased a good tyre pressure gauge... many of our local service station air pumps have wrong readouts... but they're consistent at least... My preferred place always has a 1 psi difference to my gauge... dunno which one's right... =/ don't know if it makes a difference...

I was going to raise an exact same thread on this. The recommended tire pressure is indeed 2.4 bar but somehow I find this abit twitchy on our roads and actually like it when I pump it to 2.6bar. It feels stable and suprisingly planted compared to 2.4, weirdly.. it should have been the other way round I would've thought..

Vegitto-kun · 03-18-2010, 05:53 AM

i just put the recommended 2.4 bar

right tired was 1.1 bar for some reason

hop that the tire isn't leaking -_-
