What is the tire pressure for Honda City?
1 Answers
The normal tire pressure range for the Honda City is 2.4-2.5 bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be increased by 0.2 bar in winter and decreased by 0.1 bar in summer. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements. The Honda City is not equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system or a tire pressure warning light, so it is necessary to regularly monitor the vehicle's tire pressure to avoid safety issues while driving. Generally speaking, a tire pressure above 2.8 bar is considered too high, and a tire pressure below 2.0 bar is considered too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causing steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerating wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; increased vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; excessive stretching of 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; causing heavy steering and deviation, compromising driving safety; increased movement of tire parts, leading to abnormal heat generation from excessive rolling; reduced functionality of cords and rubber, causing delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the tire bead area and causing abnormal wear; exponentially increased friction between the tire and the ground, rapidly raising tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may lead to tire blowouts. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no stamp on top, four small spikes below, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, an alarm is triggered when the pressure is 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, the tire pressure was not reset in time, causing the system to retain the old data, which triggers the indicator light. Simply reset the tire pressure to resolve this issue. 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, it can also trigger the tire pressure warning light. A damaged sensor can only be replaced with a new one.
