Why does the Changan Eado display abnormal tire pressure?
2 Answers
When a Changan vehicle displays abnormal tire pressure, it indicates that the tire pressure monitoring system has detected low pressure in one or more tires. Solution: In this situation, you should slow down and brake gently to stop safely, avoid sharp turns, and correct the tire pressure when the tires are cold. Standard tire pressure: The standard tire pressure is approximately 2.2 to 2.5 bar. Underinflated tires can lead to abnormal wear, shorten tire lifespan, increase fuel consumption, and even raise the risk of a blowout. Tire pressure should not be too high or too low, as it affects fuel efficiency. The maximum pressure should not exceed 3.0 bar, and the minimum should not be below 2.1 bar. Overinflated tires reduce the contact area with the ground, which may lower fuel consumption but also impair braking performance. Underinflated tires cause the sidewalls to directly rub against the ground, and prolonged driving can lead to sidewall rupture or even a blowout.
Oh, I see you're asking about the tire abnormality warning on the Changan Eado. I've driven this car for several years and encountered similar issues – looking back, it's actually a pretty common fault point. When the system pops up this warning, it's likely that one tire's pressure is abnormal or the sensor gave a false alarm. You should first pull over to a safe spot and don't rush to keep driving – if there's real danger, that would be troublesome. Then manually check the air pressure of all four tires using a tire pressure gauge or simply press them to see if any appear noticeably soft or bulging. If one tire has low pressure, it's probably a slow leak from a nail puncture or aging valve stem seepage; if all pressures are normal, the sensor might be blocked by dirt or have a dead battery causing the false alarm. I can share an experience – once I just had a faulty sensor replaced for around a hundred bucks. Making it a habit to check tire pressure before driving can save a lot of worry. Anyway, it's simple to handle, no need to stress, but don't delay – fix it early as safety comes first.
