    FYI Inside tire Valve Stem Cap removal

    ...reverse direction. I took my bus to my local truck tire store and asked them to reverse the outside duel stem. Nope. It won’t accommodate the TPMS inside the rim. The next time I am at Prevost, I am going to get to the bottom of this and get the right answer. Getting that cap back on is...

    Tire pressures experience

    My freightliner manual says to follow instructions in the Valor TPMS manual to set the temp warning limits. Has anyone found instructions? I don't even know if we have Valor TPMS on the 2022 DS 4081 since the pressures are displayed on the Opti View instrument panel. There is a lot of...

    TPMS Recommendation

    The only reason I like TPMS is for the possible road debris. Otherwise every stop I make (seems to be more often as I age), axles and tires get at minimum a visual. At least one stop in 300 miles gets a hand on both, hub, and tire. There is nothing that can replace proper maintenance and...

    Tire pressure

    I’m usually traveling 1 day each 10 - 20 days. I pick either the day before or two days most. As soon as I get up I turn on my TPMS and check the tires. Any variance over 2-3 lbs. I correct.

    Tire monitors

    I recommend looking at Tire Safety and TPMS | Tire Pressure Monitors | TechnoRV. They seem to have good pricing and I have used their Tech support, called for Info, a couple of times with great results.

    Valve stem extender issue on Freightliner/Accuride wheels, again!

    Thanks. I can try and call them to see what they recommend. I feel I need something as my hands don't fit in there to take the TPMS caps off....

    TPMS - EEZ - valve stem replacement and access

    Always use metal valve stems with TPMS. My previous MH cam with plastic valve stem extenders fir the duallies. one cracked and leaked before I even got to install the TPMS.

    TPMS vs Tire Pressure Gauge

    I set the pressure to the TPMS. After a time the tires will vary by 1-2 pounds from each other. I am not ocd about it. As long as they are 97 -100 lbs, I am good. Of course that is cold. I am using TST 507. I think less fiddling with the tire valve is better.

    Tire pressure

    To be honest I rely on the TPMS system most of the time for daily checks on a trip, unless there has been a significant environmental change temp/altitude. Normally I run +5 to +10 psi from the recommended pressure for current weight, but not over Max recommended tire pressure. .

    Alert TPMS SENSORS ON RUBBER STEMS MAY CAUSE VALVE STEM FAILURE!

    I went to a couple of tire shops today to see about metal stems on the toad. My 2015 Jeep Cherokee trailhawk has an on-board tpms in addition to the eez tire sensors I run on the toad valve stems for flat towing. To change out to a compatible stem for my vehicle was expensive. They (Big O)...

    Tire pressure

    Yes. With the TireMinder, checking the inside dual is cake. Now…removing the TPMS sensor…not so much. 😖 Love this one…

    Great! Thank you for the info.

    Yes internal sensors, require a special tool to remove valve caps and a long, straight inflator

    Problem 2022 Dutch Star High Tire Temperature

    I have a new 2022 Newmar Dutch Star 4369. First trip abandoned after experiencing TPMS warnings of 178 and 180 for the inside rear tires. I checked the forums, which suggested faulty readings on the TPMS, but the smell of burning rubber has me thinking the TPMS was accurate. I am stunned the...

    Tire pressure and temperature

    ...to be at 65F. When it isn’t that cool (or warm) this helps me understand how much variance I can expect to see. This also helps explain why TPMS systems don’t complain when the tire temp climbs 10F, if there is a corresponding temperature change. For instance, our front steer tires have a...

    Chassis comparison

    FWIW (which isnt much) they have a new supplier for DEF headers. Shaw Development is apparently no longer the supplier. After 14 years of mandated crap, technology has finally caught up with the requirements so I think we’ll start seeing a lot fewer strandings due to faulty sensors.

    TPMS Recommendation

    Used EZ on the past RV. This time I am going to stick with a manual gauge and chassis supplied TPMS system. My thought is to verify its operation with a manual gauge then use the chassis system if there is an anomaly. Typically I check pressure each trip before heading out. Verify with on board...
