What are the reasons for abnormal tire pressure in the manual Senova X35?
2 Answers
The reasons for abnormal tire pressure in the manual Senova X35 may include: a flat tire causing abnormal tire pressure, or tire pressure being too high or too low leading to abnormal tire pressure. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: The friction and adhesion of the tire will decrease, affecting braking performance; it may cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerate the wear of the central tread pattern, shortening the tire's lifespan; increase vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; overstretch the tire cords, reducing the tire's elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; decrease puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, the tire is more likely to be punctured, leading to internal cracks or blowouts, causing a flat tire. Hazards of insufficient tire pressure: Increase the friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; make the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, posing safety risks; increase the movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; reduce the functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; multiply the friction between the tire and the ground, sharply increase tire temperature, soften the tire, and drastically reduce its strength. High-speed driving may lead to a flat tire; increase tire body deformation, making the tire side prone to cracks, and generate flexing motion, leading to excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layers, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating shoulder wear.
My car is a manual Senova X35 automatic version. Recently, the tire pressure light keeps coming on. After checking, I found it might be due to a small nail puncture causing a leak, or the drop in temperature reducing the pressure. Sometimes the tire pressure monitoring system gives false alarms, which can be quite annoying. If you want to handle it yourself, first park and inspect the tire's exterior for any damage or foreign objects. Then use a tire pressure gauge to manually check the pressure and compare it with the recommended values on the door frame sticker, usually between 2.2-2.5 bar. Don’t ignore it—low tire pressure can accelerate wear, increase fuel consumption, and even raise the risk of a blowout. Just make it a habit to check the pressure monthly, saving money and giving peace of mind.
