: strange message
BlackRat250 27-01-2006, 22:47:58 As i was travelling home, along the motorway, a message popped up on the dash saying M-way Inflate Tyres. And all four tyres highlighted on the dash. As i slowed to come off the slip road it went off and all was back to normal, haven't seen it since. Anyone else expereinced this before?
The 225 has different tyre pressures dpending on the type of driving you do. I do 90% motorway driving to i inflate them to the specified pressure........Check your renaultsport suppliment in the handbook.
BlackRat250 27-01-2006, 23:03:42 ill have a look. i don't do a lot of motorway driving, as you can tell.
motorway driving required a higher pressure in the tyre......might explain it
JamieMac 27-01-2006, 23:27:19 i just leave the pressure sensors at home :lol:
MattRS225 28-01-2006, 11:58:48 I do alot of motorway mile but never had that message pop up :? I'll keep an eye out now :wink:
denty225 02-02-2006, 00:49:07 I do a lot of motorway but aint seen that. The book states 3-4 psi more for motorway driving. I do motorway speeds everywhere anyway!
BlackRat250 02-02-2006, 16:00:44 Its really stange, i don't really do a lot of motorway driving. Hasn't come up since.
BlueyZarzov 03-02-2006, 09:24:07 The tyre pressure sensors are speed sensitive. By this, I mean that they are aware when the car is travelling at Motorway speeds and are calibrated to warn if the pressures are considered too low for those speeds. Generally, manufacturers will recommend a few more psi for Motorway speeds. However, the manual for my Cup, specifies the same pressures for "normal" and "highway" speeds. Do you have 17" wheels? Does the manual specify different speeds?
BlackRat250 03-02-2006, 12:22:36 To be honest mate, haven't looked in the manual yet. We have 18" over here. The theory of speed sensitive sounds right :oops:
Mark200780 03-02-2006, 12:50:06 I got the same message about a week after getting mine. I was on the motorway believe it or not.... :lol:
These sensors are too clever.
BlackRat250 03-02-2006, 12:51:29 What speed did you reach? :wink:
dools225 03-02-2006, 20:32:01 Apparently if you get to 155mph a message pops up saying 'slow down you f***ing psycho you're going to die' I've yet to experience it yet but am trying hard. :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Or if you drive dead slow on A and B roads the following message comes up
"Speed up you c**t its not sunday!"

you get a message alright :?
JamieMac 03-02-2006, 20:42:55 mines says "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" :lol: :lol:
BlackRat250 03-02-2006, 21:21:05 is that in the transit :lol: :lol:
JamieMac 04-02-2006, 00:36:14 Most Definitely the Meggy :lol:

you get a message alright :?
yep, it says ' CHANGE SPARK PLUGS NOW :lol: :lol:
JamieMac 05-02-2006, 20:42:40 well mine didnt last night I am not sure about Andies!!!!! :lol:
Andy's probably said.....
"Nows a good time to put some ear defenders on"
Seriously...Andy's car roars BIG TIME.
BlackRat250 06-02-2006, 10:46:56 Alex, have you met up then? Ive got to hear it in person
