low tyre pressure warning

pinco000 · 06-13-2016, 03:40 AM

Hi guys, yesterday again I got a low tyre pressure warning. First warning came few days ago. I keep on checking the tyres daily to see any possible puncture, empty tyre, but nothing.
Have you guys any idea what can be the problem?
I have reset the tyre pressure trough cic and then it went, but still I want to know why.
Cheers

Had the same problem ended up being a cracked alloy.i took the wheel off and coveredit in soapy water and found a hairline crack.

Do you get any vibration through the wheel at all at speeds above say 70?

Could be a cracked alloy.

Could just be a dodgy sensor!

Need to get it on autologic and see what wheel is causing it ...

Take it into an indy if you're not sure someone like BW autorepair in Hayes though they probably want an hours diagnostics for looking at it ..
