Lexus IS 2014+ :: New Wheels - Check AWD System Alert Comes On
Just got my new wheels. Put them on and synced the TPMS sensors. After a mile or so this alert comes on. If I turn of the car it goes away, until I drive another mile.
I got 20" wheels with 225-30-20 and 255-30-20. I see others with AWD on the forum running that setup.

View 6 RepliesTouareg :: Low Pressure Alert On Three Tyres
I get in my T2 this morning only to find a low pressure warning on THREE tires. What is happening?
- they are filled with nitrogen
- they are 3 months old (like the truck)
- it was around 50 degrees last night, 65 when I started it this morning
- i park in an enclosed garage attached to my house
- I drove all the way to campus (15 minutes), the warning remained
- the one tire reporting "normal" actually went from 29.5 to 30.5 on the drive
- i stopped at a gas station and the front were at 31, rear at 38. The door says the front should be 36, rear 44.
- note that the front two tires are the same but only one has a warning
- truck handles fine
Are those psi numbers the same for nitrogen? Can I just add regular air? Why the sudden loss of pressure in three tires? Is it a malfunctioning TPS (TPMS?) already?
Passat (B6) :: Oil Pressure Alert Comes On - 2008 2.0T Burning Oil
It's actually my dad's car, me and him both got VW the same day, labor day. me an R32 and he got a 08 passat 2.0t. First off, the car is a daily driver, currently has 19xx miles on it. it was bought brand new with 14 miles on it and has no mods.
Beginning of this week, the oil pressure alert comes on. We check the dipstick and it is bone dry. We add enough oil so that it levels off at the center/midpoint on the dipstick. Now end of this week, after about 300-400 miles, we check and the level is under the minimum, there is no leakage anywhere underneath the engine, no leaks from the oil drain screw or filter.
It doesn't puff black smoke, but that doesn't mean it still doesn't burn oil. i looked at the exhaust tips, and alot of black soot around the tips and on the outside/inside of the tips. I'm saying it has to be something internally wrong, pistons rings/seals damaged, installed wrong? I mean, where is this oil going! It's a brand new freakin car and this happens? Would this be a factory defect?
Passat (B6) :: Low Tire Pressure Alert, Message Appeared
Got a low tire pressure alert this morning. Was running late for work and the tires weren't noticeably low and work is only 5 miles away so I decided to do it after work. Went to the gas station to get some air and all the tires were at 33 ish and one was at 20. Filled it up and drove for about 25 minutes but the error light never came off.

View 1 RepliesTaurus :: Tire Pressure Alert Popped Up (Solid Coin)
The wifes 2010 taurus popped up a tire pressure alert and she took it to our tire guy and he added some nitrogen, but didnt get rid of the alert. It is a solid icon, not blinking.
So we took it to the Ford dealer and they went around and checked the pressure.
Then two guys got into the car three times, and we could see the seat going back and forth. What the heck?
Well the 3rd time fixed the alert. I am sure they know of some button sequence to do this. Is it a secret diagnosis you can bring up?
Prius (Gen 3) :: Dash Beep / Alert And Low Oil Pressure Message After Oil Leak Repair
My local dealer (who seems very good) suggested they repair an oil leak at the timing chain cover before my 60K warranty expired. Kept the car 2 days waiting for parts. Then some very odd problems developed.
First I noticed the AC wasn't working: fan runs but will not blow cold. Dealer said must be something else because they didn't touch the AC. Then after a half hour of driving the AC suddenly starts blowing cold.
Maybe an hour of driving later, the dash beeps, alerts, and "low oil pressure" comes on the screen. Shut it off & have it towed to dealer.
While checking the mileage at the dealer, the service adviser and I both see the dash beep, alert, and ABS and Trak alarms go off.
Tech resets the computer but says he can't find any error codes. Systems and oil pressure all seem ok.
I drive 10 min, and.... beep, alert, "low oil pressure".
Dodge - Grandcaravan :: 2005 - Disabling The Service Tire Pressure System Soon Alert?
Took our 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan to a tire shop today. One sensor battery is completely dead, and when replaced, the other 3 batteries were too weak remove the alert from the information panel. Cost to repair all 4 is $400. Decided to live with the alert and they graciously put the bad sensor back in. Is there any way to disable the system? I check tire pressures regularly anyway. The continuous alert is agrivating.
View 5 RepliesLexus IS 2014+ :: Tire Pressure With Nitrogen
just noticed a discrepancy between the door sticker and TPMS readings; 36PSI for the door sticker and 47PSI on the TPMS. A long story short, measured with a gauge and the TPMS readings are accurate sent a message to my dealer because I took delivery of the car 10 days ago, no answer. I understand those tires are filled with Nitrogen, are the original values (47PSI) a requirement for Nitrogen or should I deflate those tires to door stickers values ?

View 5 RepliesLexus IS 2014+ :: Tire With Zero Air Pressure After Hitting Pothole On Highway
It's my first time experiencing a flat tire after hitting a pothole. I was on the Long Island Expressway in Queens, NY on Saturday evening after watching The Amazing Spiderman 2. It was about 12:15 AM, and there were still a lot of cars on the road. (and they were fast!!!) I wasn't aware and hit a pothole, and I immediately heard a loud "BANG" noise from the left wheel. I switched on the tire pressure indicator on the dashboard right afterward, and the air pressure started decreasing. Luckily, I was able to find an exit early and pulled over on local road to check the car. I swapped out the flat tire with the spare and went home safely with my girlfriend.
* I was surprised that the Bridgestone Turanza was able to hold up with 0 air pressure, without letting the rim rolling and touching on the ground.
* Rim is fine - no bent, no scratch
* Took the wheel to a tire shop and discovered that there must be some sharp edges in the pothole, which teared the side of the tire for about 2 inches (right underneath the tip of the rim). Total replacement with installation - $290. Shop ordered a brand new tire (same model) and I will return on Monday to get the tire fixed.
1) How do I check whether the suspension is okay?
2) The tire pressure indicator on the gauge shows nothing now - all 4 wheels. I'm not sure what's going on. I still have the spare wheel on, so I'm not sure whether this is causing the issue.
3) Where is the tire pressure sensor located? When I return to the tire shop on Monday, will the tire guy know how to swap out the bad tire with the new one without messing up with the tire pressure sensor in there?
Lexus IS 2014+ :: Cold Weather - Rear Tires Keep Loosing Pressure
I am aware that cold weather will decrease your tire pressure, but what is throwing me off is how quickly my rear tires seems to be losing pressure?
I park outside overnight, and it gets down to about 25 degrees F here at night. My front tires I run at about 38-40 PSI, and I JUST filled the rears up on Saturday to the same. I start my car this morning and both my rear tires are sitting at 30 PSI. This has happened ever since the dealer took my my wheels to refinish the rims about a month ago. Is there something they could have done that would be causing this? The can't think of a reason as to why the front tires are fine and the rear keep loosing pressure.
Lexus IS 2014+ :: High-pitched Whine When Driving With Pressure On Gas Pedal
I have about 1000 miles on my 350 F Sport AWD, whining noise. When I am driving with any pressure on the gas epedal, I hear a high-pitched whine in the cabin. If I take pressure off the gas pedal, the sound stops. It comes back as soon as I touch the gas pedal. The sound seems to be coming from the rear of the car, and it happens whether the audio is on or off.

My is350 F sport tire pressure sensors. Well I have after market wheels with the stock tire pressure sensors, when they were first installed everything was fine, now about 2 months later now that it is a little cooler. My two back sensors are showing the warning light. it still reads the pressure and shows correct pressure but sensor warning light for both rear tires are on. Why this is? I was thinking the colder weather but why only the rear two and not the front. they go off and on but lately both have been on.

I've had my '09 ES 350 for a few months now. I am disappointed in the low volume of parking sensor alert. The volume is all the way up and the switch is on. Expecting it to be louder as I am or do I have a faulty "speaker"? I'll be going to the dealer next month for service and will get their opinion at that time.

After 4k miles, I'm beginning to really like the NAV in my 450h. The lockout in motion is a pain, but the traffic alert and detour routing is wonderful. Only yesterday it sent me around a wreck on the bridge in Cincinnati, and I really enjoyed watching the masses stewing as I crossed the Ohio River on an adjacent bridge and popped up on the first exit after the traffic jam.
Making peace with the NAV seems to be mostly a matter of getting beyond the Garmin.
Anyway, now I like the Lexus NAV.

I bought a new IS 250 F-sport 2 weeks ago and the tire indicator drives me crazy. The low tire pressure light on twice in a week. I added up to 36pis (Recommended Pressure) and all tires went down after a few days. I went back to Lexus today for tire pressure. Every tire is okay but tire pressure is low only. Btw, my gas indicator did not rise up after I filled gas. The indicator started to rise up after I drove about 2 miles. Is that normal for a new car?
