Does the Civic Sport Edition have tire pressure monitoring?
1 Answers
The Civic is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. Tire Pressure Monitoring: Tire pressure monitoring involves real-time automatic monitoring of tire pressure during vehicle operation, with alerts for tire leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. Wireless transmitters send pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure alert systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): It combines the advantages of both systems mentioned above, equipping direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and incorporating a 4-wheel indirect system. Compared to using only a direct system, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect simultaneous low pressure in multiple tires. However, it still cannot provide real-time data on the actual pressure in all four tires as a direct system does.
