Tyre pressure sensors ?

assuming this link is correct all new cars from November need to have it http://www.techeurope.co.uk/tech/new...-TPMS-imminent

If you put on run flat tyres you are meant to have it too.

I've got something similar to this, Ring Automatic Digital Air Compressor includes an auto stop to prevent over inflation), in my boot.


Are we on about something like this or am I way off-base? Mine is a yellow/orange box rectangular in shape.

no its a real time readout or at least low pressure warning on the dash

I was having a nose at the new specs yesterday and noticed this too, appears to be standard on all new models! Another thing that appears to be standard on DSport models this year is Active City brake?!

Yeah it automatically brakes the car if it detects you're getting to close to an object in front of it. If I remember rightly it only works below 20mph.

I noticed some of the diesel engines have had an update too and now require you to add urea (AdBlue) every year(ish).

Yeah I've got one too because I don't have a spare wheel but this thread is about a new feature that's been added to the DS3 for all cars built after July 2014.

The car will now measure the tyre pressures and warn you if they're low, but only if you've got a new model. Any of us with retro DS3's will have to check our pressures manually.
