Default Low Tire Pressure Warning

I have a 2007 XLS with Goodyear LS2 Eagle 18" tires. This is the second time I am getting a low pressure warning. I checked all the four tires and the pressure is right. The only thing I noticed the temperature today was 55F.

What could be the reason that this warning comes on. After driving a while it goes off. I also put little air on all the four tires.

When the outside temp drops the tire pressure will decrease when the car is sitting for a long period of time. Once you start driving the air will re-expand from the heat. If you live in a cold weather area during the winter your going to get this message every single day.

I would just ignore it all together, its just a temp thing

You should always check your pressure when your tire are cold like in the morning before you go to work and then adjust the pressure to the recommended pressure. Why your warning goes off after a while is that your tire gets warmer so the air expand ant the pressure increases. So make sure you have the right cold tire pressure. Been a year that I have my xls and I check my pressure from time to time and never had a problem or warning in this case.

Roach , I notice that you have a rack on your VUS, it is the OEM Bars on a jobber one. Are you satisfied??? I am looking to put a rack for the winter season, to carry a ski-box, what is the best move to do.

Looks like the same rails I have on my ride which are the Yakima Low Profile Rails. I love mine they work great.
