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.

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.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: ABS / Brake And VSC Lights Come On Solid And Low Tire Pressure Light Blinking

I bought a 2005 RX330 a couple months ago. It now has 48,500 miles. The following happened 3 times while driving:

The ABS, Brake, and VSC lights come on solid and the Low Tire Pressure light blinks. Things go back to normal after I turn the engine off and start it again.

Dealer wants to see it first before they do anything about it. Problem is that every time it happened the dealer was closed. I live about an hour away and I’m not even sure I want to drive for one hour while these lights are on.

Reading some postings it seems like this was a known issue with the 2004 models (brake light switch). Same problem with a 2005 model?

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Low Tire Pressure Indicator Flashing For 20 - 30 Seconds Then Became Solid

So I just bought new wheels, and had them put on. Went from stock 16's to 17's now. After I had them put on there was no issue.

Now after I was driving for about 30 mins, I noticed that the Low Tire Pressure Indicator started flashing for 20-30 seconds, then stayed solid.

And now the indicator has been there ever since. I've tried reinitializing the TPMS but it stlll didn't go away.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2008 - TPMS Light And Low Tire Pressure Message Popped On

This is the third time my TMPS light and "Low Tire Pressure" message have popped on... I have checked all (4) tires and they are still exactly where I had them inflated several weeks back when I went through this the last time. What the threshold pressure is to set the TMPS warning off? I do run about 10psi lower than the door sticker because the door sticker pressure was too much and wearing the center of my rear tires... I just find it odd and frustrating that there are no problems for a period of time, and then all of a sudden I have to go through and over-inflate the tires for a few miles for the TPMS sensors to reset and clear the light, and then drop back down to where I need them for proper tire wear and it seems OK for weeks, and now here we go again

Touareg :: 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?

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".

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?
