I'm experiencing the dreaded CHECK ALL TYRE PRESSURES message again for the first time in just over three years. Just had my summer wheels put on and after two weeks decided to check the pressures at a local garage. I read the pressure panel on the driver door frame wrong and put 2,3 bar in the front and 2,5 in the rear when I should have used 2,5 and 2,9 for my 255 50 R20 tyres. Immediately after setting off I started getting the orange tyre pressure warning light and the above console message. The next day I noticed my mistake and set the pressures correctly again but the error message still keeps coming on. There seems to be no pattern to when the message occurs, sometimes only at the beginning of a journey, sometimes also at the end and sometimes for the duration of the journey. My journeys generally involve motorway stretches in the middle during my half-hour commute.

My rangie got the same symptoms after tyre change. Bought all 4 new sensors (80€ per piece), worked ever since. |

I hope it's not my sensors as the ones on the summer wheels are only three and a half years old (and have only been on the car for half of that time) and they're supposed to last 5-10 years. 2012 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 automatic (LHD), Santorini Black
