I got in the car this morning and the TPMS symbol is still there but there’s now a very faint beep every 10 seconds or so . Are they both related?
I’ll check the tyre pressure latter once they have cooled down.
I have had this happen to me once, after a motorway run at the eco setting, I am sure it was just the pressure increasing slightly over the TPMS trigger point due to tyres heating up, I had just had new tyres fitted and had set the tyre pressures to eco pressure just prior to that trip. It was a very hot day though.
I checked them at the end of that trip and they were ~42 psi, after adjusting the pressure when cold and recalibrating the TPMS all was well. I did not get a beeping noise though.
