Re: Gradual deflation, yet solely while in motion?

Excellent inquiry, and I apologise for my failure to clarify it. At first, the sensor alerts me, and the yellow tyre pressure warning indicator activates, but upon halting and verifying with a gauge, the decrease in pressure is validated.

Re: Gradual deflation, yet solely while in motion?

Thus, I presume the heightened pressure results in the potential leak, well, leaking.

Gradual deflation, yet solely while in motion?

During prolonged periods of parking and driving within a speed range of 30 to 40 mph, all my tires consistently maintain their prescribed pressure of 240 kPa. HOWEVER During a 20-minute drive at speeds of 50 to 60 mph, one tyre experiences a pressure drop of 5 to 10 kPa (0.7 to 1.4 psi). Which of th...

Re: In Canada, Tesla is offering 50% off select models.

To what extent is the construction of Shanghai problematic?

There was a time when people looked down on automobiles made in Japan and Korea. No longer at all.

In Canada, Tesla is offering 50% off select models.

Priced at $29K, the Model 3 Premium. It seems like a steal, and they seem to have significantly inflated the present owner's resale value.

Re: Which one is better: the E320 Estate S211 or the S210?

Given my intended mileage on the continent, 50+mpg is powerful. I'm not willing to part with the om642's strong, reliable acceleration in my e350, no matter how much it annoys me in the boat-like s211. I would give it some thinking if the history, provenance, and price were all in one cohesive bundl...

Re: Which one is better: the E320 Estate S211 or the S210?

That makes perfect sense, and it's helpful to be reminded of my tendency to keep hoping for the best when buying cars, even when there are clear signs that they aren't excellent. I once burnt up after purchasing a stunning Alfa 159 similar to that. I am patient because I am old enough and have the t...

Which one is better: the E320 Estate S211 or the S210?

Im on the hunt for an E320 cdi S211, but I'm on the fence about making the purchase because I had a previous experience with an S210 E320 on a '03 plate, which I adored for all her character and personality until I had to let it go due to underside rust. There aren't many in good condition that are ...
