Resetting Tyre Pressure Monitoring System

by BornAgain Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:47 pm

My Peugeot Boxer based Broadway was just in for service and habitation check and I asked if they could reset the TPMS because I have been driving around with 5.0 bar front pressure for 4 years whereas based on weighbridge data and Continental tyre information, 3.25 bar is the right pressure. Well they did it and a massive improvement in ride quality resulted but unfortunately the warning limit has not changed. This was a non Peugeot garage but their diagnostic kit apparently worked OK and it should take 20 minutes of running to work. After 30 minutes and after a restart the low pressure warning was still there.
Has anybody had this reset performed? I seem to recall people commenting that it can take a while to work.

Had mine done at a Peugeot dealership but had to sign a "disclaimer". No issue with warning light and ride quality enhanced

I guess the disclaimer is because the tyre pressure is lower than that recommended for the base vehicle?

Indeed

Cymro is the expert of this.

There is a thread from some months ago, but he will be along soon I'm sure.

Thanks for the link. I went back to my independent dealer and he is going to arrange for a Peugeot reset because their “fix” didn’t seem to work.
