How Often Should Tire Pressure Be Checked?
1 Answers
Check tire pressure once a month. The inspection should be conducted when the tires are at normal temperature, as readings are most accurate in this cold/normal state. Inflate the tires to the vehicle's specified pressure. It's normal for tire pressure to rise above the recommended cold inflation pressure after driving due to heat buildup. Do not reduce pressure in hot tires, as this will result in insufficient pressure after cooling. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tires. In automotive maintenance terms: while the engine is the heart of a car (its failure means the end of vehicle life), tire pressure serves as the car's blood pressure. Proper tire pressure levels play a crucial role in vehicle performance and power.
