Passat (B5) :: Pulling To The Right - Tire Inflation?

I'm about to leave on a road trip. I noticed last trip, the car pulled to the right. Can that be improved by tire pressure? If so, would I need more front driver or passenger side and/or rear tires?

Camry 2012+ :: Toyota LE - Tire Pressure Monitoring Not Showing Tire Icons

I bought a used certified 2012 Toyota Camry LE with 6000 miles on it directly from the main and larger Toyota dealer two weeks ago, I chose to get original tires inflated with nitrogen which is a service provided by dealer.

Right now I'm realizing that the display screen is not showing me the tires at all, just the trip and gas consumption stats.

Before taking the car to dealer and get in line is there a way system may be reset so tires and of course pressure data are properly displayed?

Touareg :: 2004 - Resetting Dashboard Tire Inflation Indicator

From the day I got my '04 Treg, the tire inflation indicator on the dash has been a problem. For the first year or so, whenever it would indicate a tire inflation problem I would scroll the thumb wheel and get the MFI window with the diagram of the car and indicator as to which tire was low or the problem and would adjust till the indicator went off. Then I guess I got lazy and I noticed I could just go to "reset" in the same window and hold the thumb wheel down and the treg would then accept whatever the pressures happens to be as the new "standard". Not a good idea, I know.

Now here is my problem. Somehow, and much to my eternal consternation, I can no longer get the window in MFI that has tire inflation levels. That's right, it seems to be gone. I get "units" and "lights" and "comfort" and "speed warning" and "time" but no tire inflation category. What could have happened to it? I suppose that while get oil changes at the dealership they may, without my knowing, have reprogrammed my computer but I don't think the change coincided with any service. I've looked in the manual and it's useless on the subject. How I can re-attain the tire inflation window short of taking into the dealership for re-programming?

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Uneven Tire Wear / Over Inflation

I have a 1999 Ford Ranger XLT using the Futura GLS 225/70/R15 tires. The vehicle decal in the driver side door listed the recommended tire pressure to be 30 PSI. I have tried to maintain religiously along with proper balance and alignment. However, I've always had the experience of the tires wearing out more along the middle which seemed to indicate over inflation. The sections on either side of the center line seemed to wear out normally. For this reason I've had to turn in the tire prematurely as they become unsafe. These tires were made by Coopers Tire and distributed by Pep Boys. Have i been using poor quality tires all along? Do I need to lower my tire pressure below the 30 PSI recommended? If I do that wouldn't I be risking overheating and/or affecting my gas mileage?

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Tire Inflation PSI Randomly Displays Dashes For A Brief Moment

Does your tire inflation psi reading ever randomly display dashes (-----) for a brief minute or so when first starting the engine before actually displaying the psi reading? I've had this happen a couple of times for no apparent reason that would prevent normal TPMS signal operation, but within a minute the dashes are replaced with the actual psi reading. I'm just wondering if this is a somewhat normal event to have happen from time-to-time.

Honda - Cr-v :: 2014 - Tire Inflation Light Comes On / ABS Brakes Not Working Correctly

I have a 2014 Honda CR-V with two possibly related problems.

1. The tire inflation light comes on often even though the pressure is just fine.
2. The ABS brakes don't seem to be working correctly.

Last winter, they seemed to engage much too easily. As soon as I touched the brake pedal, it begins to chatter. I've had ABS brakes before, of course. The ABS brake light has not come on.The kicker is that I think the two problems might be related. As I understand it, the tire pressure light comes on if one wheel spins faster than its partner - say if one of the ABS sensors on one of the wheels was defective.I've had it to the dealer, but they won't even look since the ABS light doesn't come on. They claim that if there was a problem, the light would come on.Frankly, the vehicle feels unsafe on slightly slippery roads.

Camry 2012+ :: Tire Pressure Warning System Display

The Tire Pressure Warning System display on my XLE hybrid shows icons for four tires in a horizontal row with the pressure readings beneath each icon. The icons are not arranged in the logical layout of two by two. There is no indication to which tire an icon corresponds. In other words, if the display indicates low pressure beneath one of the four icons in the horizontal row, you do not know to which tire the icon corresponds.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Low Tire Pressure Notification

So this morning heading to work the low tire pressure notification popped up. I filled my tires with air afterwards, but the light and notification are still present. Would that reset on it's own, or do I have to do something along the lines of when resetting the oil maintenance message thru the speedometer settings?

Camry :: 2009 SE - Vibration In Steering Wheel / Tire Air Pressure Light Came On

We have a new to us 2009 camry that has a slight vibration in the steering wheel. Wife drives the car daily and says its rather inconsistent. The tire air pressure light came on so I was checking tires and noticed something and was wondering if this could be the vibration.

The outer edge tread on the rear tires seems to have wore unevenly. This is the best photo I could get. When you run your hand along it you can feel every other 'lug' is raised a little on the rear side of the tread.

REAR TIRE

The front tires are wore even, but it appears previous owner didn't rotate very often and plenty of tight turns were made or unproper inflation?

FRONT TIRE

Would rotate? The middle of the tires still have good tread left.
