No Prompt Msg?

[Pc77]

Dear Bros & Sis,

 

Did you encounter that the 'check tyre pressure msg' did not prompt up in the meter?

 

Have 2 experience, 

1st time puncture, it did prompt me to check.

2nd time, it did not prompt at all.

 

My ride is C200 /W204.

 

Any kind soul that can advised me. Thank you

After pump in air did u reset the Tyres Pressure? Secondly how bad is the tyres pressure drop? If within the last set tyre pressure there shldnt hv any warning at all.

[daffy]

I damaged my wheel and burst my tyre...no message at all. Maybe happened to fast

Hi bro, do you reset the TPMS system when you fill up your tyres? Or did you change your rims size recently?

 

Else, it means that your TPMS is spoilt and need replacement, iirc should be a few hundreds to get them changed

Just to ask too how to know that this system by merc is working cause every time i fill up 250 front 240 rear and reset it. 3 mths of drive i went to check again. The front drop to 210 and rear 200. Wonder how to check

[bbwannabe]

Punctured tyre can leak slowly. Usually below like 15-18 PSI then it will show.

 

I had a sneak attack on my tires in KL, I managed to drove it all the way to check point before it went flat.

The warning came on about 100km away from the check point.

Dear bros & sis,

Thanks for all e kind reply..

My puncture quite serious, within 30s totally flat.. Do we have to reset every time we pump air?

Just went down to workshop yesterday for a check , tyre pressure is still activated. Nuttin is wrong, so have to monitor .

Hopefully it never prompt, if not, means another puncture...Haha

I juz changed my rims n tyres few days ago n today i got a check tyre pressure msg.. Hw come? So fast tyres lose pressure already?

Nope if maintain the same air pressure.

Reset and monitor again. If persist there is a leak, get it check.

[Old-MAN]

Usually after tyre and or RIM change, must do a reset....my SE say one....

[yc3333]

Yes after rims and tyres change must do reset. First time I change rims immediately after drive off kenna the prompt

The tire pressure loss warning system is not a true TPMS which has a pressure transducer
install in each wheel, measuring the physical air pressure.

In W204, the tire pressure loss warning system compares the rotational speed of all the
4 wheels over a distance, probably a few tenths of kilometers. If one of the
wheels has low pressure, the diameter of the wheel will be smaller than others
thus rotates faster then others, this will trigger the warning message.

 

If a tire burst or gone flat over a short distance, it won’t trigger the message.

Reset and monitor again. If persist there is a leak, get it check.

 

was abt to get it chk tat day then my few days old brand new tyre bursted when i was on the way.. 

[Kreezgo]

I cant believe i have used 13 tyres since i got my car last week... haha... yes 13! long story....

[Kreezgo]

oh ya and the wrench tat see n see provides is damn useless... it broke when i tried to unscrew the bursted tyre.. 

 

[yc3333]

wow... 13 tyres in 1 week? And how did you manage to burst your tyre so badly? A case of over inflation?

Rmb to get your rims checked as they might be dented/cracked when they hit the road

[thaiedwin]

The tyre really looks new....care to share what tyre u used?

[Tanzy]

Tyres look worn on the inner threads. Could be a case of under inflation or leak. Based on the height of the suspension, it can't be due to negative camber. Perhaps the rim itself might have developed a leak since you have gone through so many tyres.

[Ah Bui]

One important question. .. did u offend anybody... cos to lose 13 tyres in 1 week after rims change only leads to 1 conclusion... VANDALISM.... just my hunch... maybe I'm wrong.. but the possibility is high... somebody don like u...

[thaiedwin]

So what is ur damage this time?

[tsktsk]

pity your prodrive rims, have to suffer 13 times...

 

not sure if its the picture but the tire looks weird as if the rubber is sort of separate from the tire wall. seems like the hole is on the wall.

 

perhaps u can check the week/year stamp on the side of the tire to determine when it came out of the factory. like 5212 is 52nd week of 2012 to confirm freshness

I kena a big nail at seletar west link tats y the tyre msg prompt came on but bef i can go check the tyre bursted due to the heat fr wat i was told by daniel of leong seng..

They checked my rim n said it is ok.. Not even a scratch.. Lucky it is prodrive he said very durable

You had the same situation as one of the bro here who change a few rims in a year, but you just beat the guinness record in a week..
