Putin is a loser

[Fergie 307]

Seriously though I am with you.
My missus mini has so much stuff, even variable mood lighting FFS, and keeps telling her the tyre pressures are wrong, when the gauge says otherwise.
Going to have to replace a sensor I guess, she thinks I am trying to do her in making her drive about with dodgy tyres, as if

Are you blaming Putin for your missus's tyre pressures ?

Certainly putin too much air

........Same with our car - it bristles with switches and have to keep looking at the 500 page manual as they are interactive and have a mind of their own. The "air conditioning" is really complicated. In my old Bedford CA van it was on/off, and pull a lever for screen/cabin/both. Dead simple and perfectly adequate.

It's called being an old git Jacob. Being one myself I can say that with confidence though I like all the gadgets in our cars.

I wouldn't worry about it and certainly not bother with new sensors. My wife is on her 5th Mini the current one being extremely well equipped and regularly gets the same warning as she also did on her previous 2. Our neighbour has a 2019 Mini with the same issue and she came round in a panic a few weeks ago when it first happened. Our little Citigo does it occasionally as does both Fiesta's my daughter has owned recently.
My car on the other hand has only done it once when I had a slow puncture but that's just luck I guess. I think many of the sensors on modern cars are far too sensitive, an opinion shared by our local garage owner.

For the record as the originator I do not mind thread drift on this thread (or Putinist trolls) - anything which promotes "Putin is a Loser" works for me!

Just be thankful you don't have to drive a Lada.

Had one years ago. Estate model. It looked a very neat practical design (ex Fiat) but just not reliable or nice to drive. Somebody stole the best bit which was the battery, with an image on it of happy looking soviet peasants and tractors.
