You know you can add air to them to fix this issue right?

I'll get around to it eventually. It starts notifying me at < 35 psi. That's not that low yet

I'd take an '89 again. Just to have for nostalgic purposes.



Those were tough.

The pure N in my tires isn't as finicky to atmospheric conditions as the poor people air you cretins put in the tires of your Rav4's and Subaru Outbacks.

It's an elaborate ploy devised by car makers. If you run your tires full pressure in the state of Louisiana you will end up replacing your entire suspension after 50k miles on LA roads.

The maintenance staff was complaining that the temperature negatively impacted the pressure in my reserve airship. If only I could ride their excuses to my ski chalet in Courchevel.

I park in a garage. Sorry about being poor. I’ll pray for you.

When being a smartass it pays to be smart as well. Nitrogen does not have any significant thermal pressure stability over air. You should try more exotic mixtures, 52% Tetrafluoroethane, 44% Pentafluoroethane and 4 % Trifluoroethane is an excellent mixture.

It's easier to just do donuts until the air in the tires warms back up.

I did a few days ago when it got cold here. Filled my tires to the proper pressure but the light is still on. I may mess with it this weekend. I've heard the spare can cause the light to come on too.

Some cars have to be reset once you fill the tires. Check the manual.

I put on a set of steel wheels with snow tires every year (no TPMS sensors). The low tire pressure light will be on in my car for the next five months or so. Luckily no audible warning though.

I had low tire pressure in one tire, but there was a very long line to get air at Benny’s. Obviously there was a lot of low tire pressure going around.

I wonder if Oweo checks the tire pressure on his wheelchair or if he just uses some run flats.

Yes. I started the car, plugged my air compressor into the 12V port, and spent ten minutes bringing them up to pressure while I listened to a couple of tunes.

Do you people not have basic car maintenance tools/skills?
