Porsche 911 tire pressure reset method: 1. Turn on the ignition; 2. Press the MENU button on the right-hand combination switch on the steering wheel to access the system settings main menu, select TIREPRESST, and then press the OK button; 3. Select the Settings option; 4. Select Tires, Winter, and 20Inch in sequence; 5. Select Sparewheel; 6. Select Sealingset; 7. Start the engine and drive the vehicle for a few minutes. When the English prompt asking whether to confirm the tire repair setting appears on the instrument panel, select Yes to confirm. The Porsche 911 has a length, width, and height of 4507mm, 1880mm, and 1294mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2450mm.
I just got new tires, and resetting the tire pressure is quite simple. First, get in the car but don’t start the engine—just turn the key to the ACC position to power on. Then, press the menu button on the right side of the steering wheel and navigate to the tire pressure option in the vehicle settings. Select "Reset TPMS System" and confirm. After resetting, it’s best to drive a few kilometers to let the system calibrate, especially when weather changes cause significant tire pressure fluctuations. I’ve been driving a Porsche 911 for years and believe regular checks are crucial—measure the tire pressure manually at least once a month. Safety first! Don’t rely solely on the system; if the sensors fail, it could be dangerous. The 911 is fast, and unstable tires can easily lead to skidding. I recommend resetting when the tires are cold and setting the pressure back to the standard value—the recommended pressure is marked on the fuel cap. Once reset, the dashboard light will turn off, and you’re good to go.
