carmanick explains... Direct vs Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS)

[@karlosgill]

Really good job Nick!

[@vivekjaiswal2422]

Direct TPMS sounds more practical👍

[@carmanick]

@@vivekjaiswal2422 yeah it sure is. It's much more useful and informative but it's more expensive for car companies to fit, and there's more to go wrong over time. Direct is less likely to work on older cars as the batteries in tyres are not likely to be replaced !

@@carmanick I agree what you told for old cars, since I have a new car with active TPMS in built, now it's very convenient for me to check the tyre pressure accurately in day to day running. I am assuming my old car had indirect TPMS that was also good.
