What pressure change triggers TPMS?

Post by RSKiwi » Mon Apr 30, 2012 9:04 pm

My warning light has just come on and I was wondering how many psi does the pressure need to change by to trigger the yellow level?

The inner nerd needs to know!

It's 4 on mine and I'm pretty sure they're the same units.
