Hello everyone,
I have a question about how accurate the tire pressure sensors should be on my original Goodyear tires. I have noticed in the past that the readout on the DIC seems to be a few psi from a manual tire gauge, but yesterday morning I got a message that I had low pressure in the RR tire (25 psi). After driving a bit the readout showed 27 psi so I didn't get anymore messages. After parked a few hours I checked the cold tire with a digital gauge and it read 29.5 psi. The only other thing is that the temp. outside got down to 22 degrees overnight and it was still pretty cold when this happened. Even when I have 30 psi in the tires the sensors read from 28-29. I though I would check with the vast knowledge here to see if I have a real problem or do they just need to be recalibrated. BTW, I have checked this with a few different tire gauges.
Thanks in advance for your help
