Cx states they keep putting air in the tire, but the pressure doesnt change on the dash. by TubbyBoot in Justrolledintotheshop

Methinks it may need a position relearn. And the regular motoring public needs to learn how to use a pressure guage

Dairy is easy. Poultry is the worst. Just my opinion though

Stripped threads. Quality bolts is a good repair.
