3 Answers
FAW-Volkswagen Bora tire pressure fault reset method is: There is a tire monitoring indicator button on the center console, press the button to recalibrate the tire monitoring indicator. The FAW-Volkswagen Bora is a compact car under FAW-Volkswagen, with a body length of 4663 mm, width of 1815 mm, height of 1462 mm, and a wheelbase of 2688 mm. The FAW-Volkswagen Bora is equipped with two engines, one is a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine is coded as EA211-DMB, with a maximum power of 83 kW, maximum torque of 145 Nm, maximum power speed of 6000 rpm, and maximum torque speed of 3900 rpm. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine features multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block.
I've encountered the tire pressure warning light coming on while driving a Bora. First, you need to check if the actual tire pressure is normal. It's recommended to use a tire pressure gauge to measure each wheel. The standard tire pressure is indicated on the label on the driver's door frame, usually around 2.3 to 2.5 bar. If it's low, inflate it to the standard value. After inflating, with the car started, find the vehicle settings in the central control screen or steering wheel menu, look for the tire pressure monitoring option, and select reset. If the light still doesn't go off, it might be a sensor issue, such as being dirty or broken. In this case, drive to a 4S shop to read the fault code with a computer and get it fixed. I've developed a habit of checking tire pressure once a month to prevent faults, save fuel, and extend tire life. Safety comes first.
When the tire pressure warning light comes on in the Bora, it's best to first ensure all tire pressures are normal and then use a simple reset method to resolve it. Use a tool to measure each tire's pressure, and if it's below the standard value, inflate it to the recommended level, which is usually indicated on a sticker on the side of the door. After inflating, start the car, navigate to the vehicle settings menu in the central control system, select the tire pressure monitoring, confirm the reset, and wait a few seconds to complete the process. If the light doesn't go off, the sensor may need replacement or there could be a wiring issue, in which case you should consult a professional technician and consider cleaning the wheels. Remember, unstable tire pressure not only increases fuel consumption but also affects braking distance, so regular monitoring is essential for prevention.
