[QUOTE="astroboy, post: 289692, member: 4527"] Something went very wrong with their PDI (Pre-delivery Inspection)... I took mine from AB Sg. Besi. The PDI check list states clearly my tyres were inflated with 28psi on all 4 wheels but it was otherwise. My alignment also was not in order that I have to return the car in less than a week after delivery to get it rectify. The problem my car faces were: 1. Alignment pulling left 2. Wobbly steering 3. Extra hard air pressure sounded like the entire steering rack like want to drop off.. After they rectify the problem, I drove straight to the petrol kiosk to check my tyre pressure again, now it was way too low at about 26psi... The recommended air pressure for your tyre is labeled on your driver side B-pillar (Door pillar).. should be easy to understand because its picture illustrated info and there a chart of what tyre size and loading capacity versus recommended tyre pressure. Please develop a feel for your tyre air pressure when driving the car and adjust the tyre pressure to your liking. Also please check the thread to see if its equally worn as you need to re-adjust your tyre pressure to ensure tyres worn out in equally. To reset the RFT alarm, your user manual has a detail write up. I suggest u read your manual as you will discover a lot more things. In brief, after pressing the RFT reset knob, you need to drive the car around for the RFT alarm to recalibrate the revolution of each wheel and use it as a benchmark. U must understand our RFT is not a measure of tyre air pressure but a revolution register of each wheel and its relation to other wheels.... please read your manual. [/QUOTE]
