What is the appropriate tire pressure for Maxus V80?
1 Answers
Maxus V80 tire pressure standards are 2.4-2.5 bar for standard tires and 2.8-2.9 bar for reinforced tires. Due to seasonal factors, winter tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2 bar, while summer pressure can be reduced by 0.1 bar. This data complies with the international GBT2978-2008 standard. To check the current tire pressure of Maxus V80 during daily driving, you can activate the tire pressure monitoring system, and the tire pressure values will be displayed on the central LCD screen of the instrument panel. The specific method is to press the LCD adjustment button on the combination instrument on the left side of the steering wheel to switch to the tire pressure monitoring system interface. Generally, tire pressure above 2.8 bar is considered too high, and below 2.0 bar is too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread of the tire, shortening tire lifespan; increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; overstretches tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, compromising driving safety; increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; weakens cord and rubber functions, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the bead area and causing abnormal wear; multiplies friction between the tire and the ground, sharply raising tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may result in a tire blowout. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no seal on top, four small spikes below, and an exclamation mark inside), it is generally due to one of the following three reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually triggers an alarm when below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset promptly, the system will still record the previous data, causing the indicator light to come on. Simply perform a tire pressure reset to resolve this. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, installed inside the tire and connected to the inflation valve, monitors tire pressure. If the sensor is damaged during driving, the tire pressure fault light will illuminate. For sensor damage, only replacement with a new part is the solution.
