How to reset the tire pressure on the Lamando?

[DiBrady]

To reset the tire pressure on the Volkswagen Lamando, first turn on the ignition. There is a reset switch above the brake pedal; press the reset switch, and the warning light will start flashing. After 5 seconds, the tire pressure will be reset, and the tire pressure monitoring light will be turned off. If this doesn't work, check for any leaks, cracks, nails, or other issues with the wheels. If everything appears normal but the issue persists, it is recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection. Below is additional information: 1. Meaning of tire pressure: It refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car, and its damage will lead to the end of the car's life. Similarly, tire pressure is like the blood pressure of the car, as its level plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power. 2. Meaning of air pressure: Air pressure is the lifeline of the tire. Both too high and too low pressure will shorten the tire's lifespan. Low pressure increases tire deformation, leading to cracks on the sidewalls and causing flexing movements, which generate excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging and fatigue of the cord layer. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, speeding up wear on the tire shoulders. High pressure, on the other hand, overstretches the tire cords, reducing the tire's elasticity and increasing the load on the car while driving. If impacted, it may cause internal cracks or blowouts. Additionally, high pressure accelerates wear on the tire tread and reduces its resistance to rolling.

Last time I helped my dad with his Lamando, I looked into this. With the engine off, start the car first, then go to the infotainment screen or instrument cluster menu to find the vehicle settings. There should be a tire pressure monitoring option. After entering, there's a 'Store Tire Pressure' button—press it and the instrument cluster will flash the tire pressure light twice, then it's done. Remember to do this when the tires are cold; resetting before the tires cool down will give inaccurate readings. Finally, drive for about ten minutes, and the system will automatically learn the new tire pressure values. Oh, and before resetting, make sure to top up the tire pressure, or the warning light will come back on right after resetting.

We've discussed this in our car enthusiasts group, and it's a simple three-step process: First, start the vehicle but don't move it. Second, press the arrow button on the right side of the steering wheel to find the tire pressure settings. Third, hold the OK button for three seconds until the indicator light flashes. For older Lamando models, look for the set button in the glove box, while newer models operate through the central control screen. The key point is to reset the system immediately after adjusting the tire pressure, as the system defaults to considering your current tire pressure as the normal value. Don't panic if the tire pressure light doesn't turn off after resetting—just drive a few hundred meters for the signal to refresh.

It depends on the model year. For models before 2018, follow this procedure: Turn on the ignition without starting the engine, press and hold the SET button next to the gear lever, release when the tire pressure light on the dashboard illuminates. For newer models, operate via the touchscreen: Tap Vehicle - Settings - Tire Pressure - Store Current Values. Key point: Ensure all four tires have consistent pressure during operation. If there's a leak, the warning will reactivate immediately after reset. It's recommended to reset after each inflation, especially during seasonal changes when tire pressure fluctuates significantly.
