The temperature has dropped to low single digits.

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?
View 3 RepliesCamry :: Tire Pressure For 2006 Car - MAX Inflation Is 44 Lbs
Been using the pressure listed on the door jamb which is 29psi since I own the car. But recently I noticed the tires seem to be wearing on the outside part of the tread. I believe this is usually an under- inflation symptom. Am I right to be using 29 psi as the proper amount or should it be higher? The tire says MAX inflation is 44 lbs. which I know would be way over what it should be.
View 9 RepliesTouareg :: 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?
View 13 RepliesHonda - 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.

Another 5k miles and the maintenance required light has come on. The 300h wants its tires rotated. I don't want to take it into the dealer just for that. Which tire goes where in a Lexus rotation? Also how to make sure the tire monitoring system knows the tire location has changed? I can move the tires around myself but don't know how to reset the tire monitoring system to the new tire location.

View 14 RepliesLexus ES 2013+ :: Chime Sound For 2 To 3 Seconds Randomly When Driving
So I am experiencing a 2 -3 second "chime" sound randomly when driving. Some times its 2 chimes, others its 3 or 4 chimes.
So far it only appears to happen when moving at low speeds. There isn't an alert on the dash board. Also it sound like bells, its not the door open sound or the seat belt warning.
I thought at first I changed the sound of an incoming email/text but when I removed my phone from the car I was still getting the odd noise.
I've read through the manual and couldn't find anything. It seems to me there is a setting hidden someone where to turn this off.
Lexus ES 2013+ :: Tire Pressure Warning Set Up
Any way I can set up the tire pressure warning to come on at 27psi or so? I want to set the tires at 30psi for a more comfy ride and not have the warning light on. Don't care about mileage. Want the cushy Lexus ride.
View 14 RepliesLexus GS 2013+ :: Huge Gap Between Tire And Fender?
I saw most bmw and mercedes cars all have a very small gap between tire and fender. My last two cars are Lexus, one 2011 IS and the other one is 2015 GS F sport.
The gap between is tire and fender for my 2011 IS is huge, which makes the car super ugly. Anyway, IS is a terrible car, so I sold the car even before the factory warranty expires. Then I thought the gap should be smaller and the car should sit lower if I have the F sport package. After I received the new GS F sport, I realize the gap is still huge, at least the gap size is way bigger than what's shown in Lexus' ad brochure.
why Lexus don't make its suspension as short as bmw or mercedes? Or even Audi. I had a Audi before two Lexus cars when I was still in graduate school. I dont remember I was bothered by the ugly looking of the tires.
