Are you looking for a Tyre Pressure Check for your vehicle?
Maintaining optimum pressure in the tyres is important, as it is directly connected to the safety of the driver and other road users. The tyre pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI) or BAR. It varies from vehicle to vehicle, but most passenger cars have a pressure between 30 and 35 PSI.
If the pressure in your car tyre is below 20 PSI, it is considered a flat tyre and puts you at risk of a blowout. Our experts recommend a tyre pressure check in Irlam once every two weeks. It is a must before a long journey.
Problems caused by incorrect tyre pressures:
Overinflated and underinflated tyres can cause different types of problems, such as:
If the tyres are under-inflated:
- It affects vehicle handling, making it harder to steer around corners.
- It is more likely to overheat, increasing the risk of a tyre blowout.
- It causes rapid wear on the outside edges of the tyres.
- It affects braking and suspension efficiency and increases fuel consumption.
If the tyres are over-inflated:
- It results in the hardening of the tyre tread and the sidewalls, reducing traction on the road, and eventually resulting in an uncomfortable journey.
- It causes rapid wear in the centre of the tyres.
- It also reduces braking performance and suspension performance.
How do we perform the service?
We perform the tyre pressure check in Irlam using the following steps:
STEP-1
We visually inspect your tyres.
STEP-2
Then we check your vehicles recommended tyre pressures which are usually found on the inside of the door, fuel cap or drivers handbook.
STEP-3
Now we remove all valve caps ready to check your vehicles tyre pressures.
STEP-4
We check the reading and inflate or deflate the tyre according to the pressure shown on our tyre gauge.
STEP-5
Again, we take the reading to check that the tyres are correctly inflated and then re-apply the valve caps which protect the valve cores from any dust or dirt.
STEP-6
Finally, we check the spare wheel, as it naturally loses pressure over time.
Step-7
If your tyre pressure warning light is still showing, we will perform a TPMS reset which will log and store your correct tyre pressures.
