Tire pressure of 235kpa is normal, as the standard tire pressure range is between 230kpa and 250kpa. Driving with low tire pressure can cause severe tire wear and, in serious cases, may lead to a tire blowout. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of the tire, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overstretches the tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass, the tire is more prone to punctures, which can lead to internal cracks and blowouts. Solutions for insufficient tire pressure: If no damage is visible, simply inflate the tire to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system; If a puncture is found during inspection, promptly drive to a tire shop for repair and then reinflate the tire; If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation without any visible holes, it may be due to a leaking wheel rim. It is recommended to inspect and replace the wheel rim if necessary.

Speaking of a tire pressure of 235 kPa, based on my experience, it might be normal, but it really depends on your car model and tire specifications. I've driven several cars, and I remember one time my tire pressure showed 240 kPa. After checking the owner's manual, I found the standard range was between 230 kPa and 250 kPa, which shows how much requirements can vary between different models. 235 kPa is roughly equivalent to 34 psi, and most household cars have a cold tire pressure in the range of 30 to 35 psi. If you're driving a regular sedan or SUV and the measurement was taken when the tires were cold, then this value is probably fine. However, it's important to emphasize that tire pressure is affected by temperature—for example, driving in summer can heat up the tires and increase the pressure. That's why it's best to check the pressure in the morning when the tires are cold. I recommend making it a habit to measure your tire pressure every two weeks, using a reliable tire pressure gauge for calibration. If the pressure is too high, release some air; if it's too low, add some. This helps prevent premature tire wear or the risk of a blowout. After all, driving safely is what matters most—don't underestimate this, as it affects overall handling and fuel efficiency.

What Causes the Abnormal Noise When Starting with a CVT Transmission?

CVT transmission making abnormal noise when starting is generally a fault in the suspension system, possibly caused by loose or damaged engine mounts. Introduction to the Suspension System: The suspension system refers to all the force-transmitting connection devices between the car's frame and the axles or wheels. Functions of the Suspension System: Its role is to transmit forces and moments between the wheels and the frame, cushion the impacts from uneven road surfaces to the frame or body, and dampen the resulting vibrations to ensure smooth driving. The suspension system should support the body and improve ride comfort. Different suspension setups provide drivers with varying driving experiences. Despite its seemingly simple appearance, the suspension system integrates multiple forces, determining the car's stability, comfort, and safety, making it one of the most critical components in modern vehicles.
