Tire Air Pressure - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

My car is about 6 months old now and I haven't had to add or remove any air from my tires. Is this normal? I check the air pressure as soon as I start the car with the information center every time before I take her out on the road. I have about 1100 on her to date.

I put air in this past week. I didn't look at the door when I bought it, put 3k on the OD and got a TPMS warning on my right rear (29). Filled all to the proper 36psi.

Onstar emailed me and told me mine were all low at 32.

redirish · 08-16-2010, 08:30 PM

All my emails from Onstar have been OK as well. What is the lowest and highest pressures

Got an email from Onstar over the winter about low pressure so I filled tires. Got one today but my gauge and the onboard said all is OK so I've put in air once in 8 mos.

well ,you have to keep in mind that they use air from CANADA when they first inflated you tires !!!!

Had car less than a week and added air twice to drivers back tire, checked and had a screw in center of tire .WTF had repaired

Door says 36 is ideal... I've had to patch one tire and the warning has come on the dash for another now down to 29. Pissing me off with these tires.

Typically tires loose 1-2 psi of air pressure per month. Temperature affects tire pressure so warmer weather could explain why you haven't seen the drop in pressure yet.

Remember when rotating the tires to reset the TPMS. Follow the instructions in the manual. Easy to do.
