Where is the tire pressure reset button on the Bora?

The tire pressure reset button on the Bora is located to the right front of the gear lever. The Bora's tire pressure monitoring system is an indirect type, and the reset button is marked with 'SET'. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tires, which is like the blood pressure of a car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power. The Bora is a compact car under FAW-Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1462mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2688mm. The Bora is equipped with two engines: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine.
I recently noticed the tire pressure warning light came on while driving, so I went to reset it. The tire pressure reset button for the Bora is usually located near the instrument panel below the left side of the steering wheel, where you'll see a button with a tire icon. The operation is simple: first, park and turn off the engine, ensuring the car is in a safe place, then press and hold that button for a few seconds. When the tire pressure indicator on the dashboard flashes, it means the reset is complete. Normally, the system alerts you to abnormal tire pressure, and resetting allows it to relearn the pressure values. This is important because unstable tire pressure not only increases fuel consumption but may also lead to tire blowouts or loss of control, especially at high speeds, which poses significant risks. I personally check the tire pressure regularly, keeping it around 2.3-2.5 bar. The reset button location is generally consistent across most Bora models. If you can't find it, refer to the owner's manual for detailed instructions. Developing good habits can reduce driving hassles, save fuel, and give you peace of mind.
