Hey all!
So there are few things about the new Civics that don't match up to it's competitors and the tire pressure monitoring is one of those. I love in my wife's Equinox the ability to quickly check and see the specific pressures of each individual tire from inside the cabin. I do like that the Civic tells you when you have a low tire but it only tells you when it's too late and poor tire wear has already taken place if it's a slow leak or just caused by lowering outside air temperatures.
Does anybody use or have any suggestions on a good aftermarket system to monitor tire pressure. I've shopped around a little and it looks like systems that put valve stem caps on with a monitor that plugs into a cigarette lighter is the best option out there. I obviously don't want something that swaps out stock valve stems because I still want the cars system to work as well, I just want to easily check individual pressures to either make sure pressures are good or easily find that one tire that is bad without having to go around to each tire and manually check the pressure.
Thanks for the positive input!!
