I got my warning light pop up telling that my rear right tyre had low pressure but i checked it, it was okay. Any idea? i reset it already and it shown 'flat tyre active' when i click on tyre pressure page.. does 'Flat tyre active" is shown on every of your vehicle status on tyre pressure page?

Due, does it says something like "Flat Tyre Monitoring Active" and all four tyres shown in green? If it is, should be normal. It indicates the system is actively monitoring your tyres' pressure. Make sure you inflate your tyres with the right pressure. This is very important if your sets are GY RFT as they are very prone to bulging when driven under over-/under-pressure situation.

I'm not sure if the system is actually able to detect lost of air pressure compared to the initial set value. What I'm sure of, is that it will detect any abnormal difference in air pressure between the wheels (wheel spin through the ABS system).
 
Check all your tyres for damage and check the pressure and make sure all inflated to the manufacturer's recommendation as stated on the sticker at the driver door sill. Thereafter, reset the TPM. This should solve the problem.

You hv a nail or something on one of the tyres, have it check :top: ...
 
Take action asap! If your car is wearing GY RFT, and your tyre loses pressure, its extremely prone to bulging.

anyone tires fitted with bridgestone potenza have similar issue regarding this?

Regardless of type of tyres bro ... if you are losing pressure n any of your tyres, you need to have it checked :top: ..
 
Can we patch back our RFT if poke by nail or screw?

Hi guys, just wanna share and clarify something bout tire pressure. My buddy's 2012 F30 328 and my 2013 F30 328 has two different type of pressure stated on the sticker. Attached is the image of both our stickers. For 225 45R 18 91Y , min person pressure are different. But for max person, its the same. We're guessing its the wrong sticker on either one of the cars, maybe one was meant for the 320. The dealer has not got back to me yet about it. Was using 200 for front and 220 rear as stated on my sticker. Driving aint fun cause I'm always on the look out for potholes to avoid bulges due to incorrect tire pressure instead of enjoying the drive. Anybody mind sharing whats your recommended tire pressure settings for the said min person condition.

Yes Can...from inner part of the Tyre :top:

Actually my front left tire was patched once from outside due to a screw hole. The mechanic inserted like a rubber or something in the hole and then it seals.

Once it is Patched from inside is more better then patching from outside...you can also ask the Mechanic...patching from outside also can...but from inside is still the best :rock:
