Prius (2010-12) :: Tire Pressure Monitor Indicate Too High Pressure

When I bought a used camry 5 years ago and drove it on the highway, my front tire busted and damaged the fender cuz it had too much air!! I wonder if it shows high pressure on my 2010 gen III Prius v with ATP. I know that the tires are special on this v version but still I like to keep a slightly higher pressure in the front ones because the lane keep assist feature works better with higher tire pressure. Summer is coming up so that gets me worried what to do with tire pressures.

Golf VI R :: Check Tire Pressure Indicator But Gauge Reads 41 On All 4 Tires

I got the message to "check tire pressure" which I did. All tires were very close to 41 psi and I tweaked the pressures to the recommended indicated on the driver's side door jamb. I did this almost a week ago and the indicator still goes on. I check the tires again and the gauge reads 41 on all 4 tires. Can something still be wrong? Does something have to be reset?

Buick - LeSabre :: 2005 - Check Tire Pressure Light Is On - All Pressures Equal And Normal

The light has been coming on for the last couple of weeks. I can reset the light by pushing the dash button. On a 700 mile trip last weekend, I probably reset it half a dozen times. The tires are all at 30 PSIg. Two tire gauges agree. I don't know how the system works. I don't think there is a sensor in each wheel like some later cars have. I suspect it works off of ABS sensors and wheel revolutions. The ABS light is not on, nor has it been.

The right rear tire has been replaced with one of the same size, but a different brand. This issue started a month after that. Can that tire have a different revolution length per rotation and cause this issue?

Prius (Gen 2) :: Possible To Disable Tire Pressure Management System?

I have a 2006 Prius with 133k miles.

The other day, I had my Michelin Hydroedge tires (87k) replaced with Michelin Defenders.

The tech brought out one of the rims before removing the old tire and told me that he thought that the tire pressure gauge was broken. He shook it and I could hear it rattling inside.

Prius (Gen 3) Fuel :: Low Tire Pressure Caused Low Mileage

I have 6600 miles on my Prius. When I first go my prius I increased my tire pressure to 40 psi. At 5000 miles I got an oil change and my checkup. Took a road trip of 400 miles and got 53-54 mpg.

Just before my fill up at 5500 I put a screw through my front passenger tire. The last two tanks of gas I have only gotten 45 mpg and was ready to take the Prius back into Toyota and ask them to fix whatever they did to the car.. To make a long story short I decided to check the tire pressure on all the tires again. Three of the tires were at 40 psi and the one Toyota fixed was at 35 psi. I inflated the one tire to 40psi and not I'm right back where I was on the mileage. 52-53 mpg.

Prius V :: Tire Pressure Monitoring System Icon?

Just bought the car last week and I am getting somewhat used to the "bells' and whistles" as a new Prius owner. The owner's manual as well as the Nav/Entune manual describe the Tire Pressure Monitoring System as having not only an icon for low pressure on the dash indicator display, but "if equipped" a separate display on the Nav/Entune display which will give the readout for all tires including the low tire "when it senses a low tire condition" (taken from the manual).

I thought my v-five was equipped with the second feature but it will not display when selecting the "Car" button on the panel. I tried deflating a tire and in fact the icon appeared on the dash,(for a low tire) but I still was unable to read individual tire pressures on the Nav/Entune display.

My dealer says the only place he has seen the individual pressure display was on a Highlander.
