tire pressure monitor

sidr314 · 01-09-2009, 11:52 PM

so tonight i start my car and out of nowhere the tire pressure warning lamp stays on. all my tires and they have the perfect amount of PSI. so now i m just freaking out. I have a JB3 1.0, catless downpipes, BMS downpipe fix, and a helix intercooler. is it possible my car is throwing a code? i took it into boost once and it felt fine. i m just freaking out about going into getting my car service and have no idea what i should take out b4 bringing it in. any help/suggestions?

Follow the reset procedure. If it says "tire low" and won't let you reset it put a few pounds in each tire and see if the warning goes out. If it does try the reset procedure again, but before you drive it air the tire back down to the pressure you like to keep - then drive it and let it learn the new pressure.
