Tyre Pressure LEDs
Discussion
Hi,
my '06 V8V was in at dealer getting load niggles fixed and when returned last night I noticed a row of flashing leds behind the glove box - which I now understand relate to the tyre pressure warning. They're all flashing at once though and there are no warnings on the dashboard information panel.
Before moaning to the dealer is this how the tyre pressure warning system normally alerts (its been freezing recently so might explain why is flagged up, even though pressures should be ok) - just seems odd as if it hadn't been dark I'd never have noticed the LEDs. The car is normally only too happy to give me an orange warning sign on the dashboard for everything else.
Anyone know which manual is correct for tyre pressure system fitted:

Many thanks.

When you just turn on the car all 4 light diodes will be flashing merely showing that the system is in operation. If you get a warning in the display re tyre pressure you can then check on this display which wheel it refers to as the color patch underneath each diode refers to the bit of colored plastic around the valve on the wheel which has "reported" the fault.
It is a fairly basic system compared to Porsche Tyre Monitor where you actually get the actual tyre pressure read out on the display but it does the trick I guess.
