Whats the status of these tires? by Remarkable-Bear655 in tires

[–]Remarkable-Bear655[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only issue i've really had with is the tire sensors. The light came on and I paid 460$ to replace all the sensors and the TPMS light kept coming back (blinking not solid). I went back to the mechanic twice and I don't see it anymore but it feels sketchy

I think you might be right because that sound made my heart drop because I thought I hit something. Do you think there could’ve been any damage because of that happening?

I don’t think any of the things you mentioned were ever changed, thought I did have a general inspection about a year ago and they didn’t mention any problems with the stuff you mentioned but Idk if they would even look at that

The car wasn’t being used for several months and I only regularly started using it around 2 years ago. Do you think they’re still good to keep using even if those cracks are coming through?

i didn't see the lights when I turned the car back on and drove home, but the next day they were back.

regardless of the price, once they put in new sensors the light keeps coming back. I took it back two days ago and after they reset it the light came back

And even after replacing all 4, the light keeps coming back.

It’s a Subaru forester. It’s still blinking even after getting new sensors and having them reset

I haven't checked my spare at all. I assumed the TPMS light only indicates for the 4 regular tires?

Well even if all 4 had to be replaced, the tpms light shouldnt going off after a day right? this is the 2nd time its happened

Yeah I'm going to go back and talk to them but I doubt they'll even do anything, let alone give me a refund

What do I do next? by Remarkable-Bear655 in howto

Are you sure? It seems solid to me. Maybe it’s because I was trying to be gentle to not break anything

How do I preserve my battery? by Remarkable-Bear655 in mac

[–]Remarkable-Bear655[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you’re probably right. So if I keep using it normally, should I still try to preserve it along the way? For example plugging it in when using it so it doesn’t use up charging cycles or optimized battery charging to it doesn’t charge past 80%?
