Interesting. Much better than those aftermarket jobbies where you have to attach nice shiny monitors to your valves ripe for being stolen.

Another ECU to go wrong !

I prefer a human monitor myself

Likewise - a quick look round will show up any problems, followed up by a pressure check .Car pulling - another reason to check .

And it might be worth getting a cheap compressor ( garages are now looking for 50p a time to check/blow up/down), with a pressure gauge .Gone are the days of a forecourt with a gauge to check ,then if necessary pay a modest fee blow-up .These days - to check ,you need to pay ,whether or nit you need the air .

Oh definitely. I never use forecourt ones, don't have faith in the accuracy of their gauges either.

I have an analogue check gauge in the car, plus a small but effective compressor from Halfords. Does the job just fine and was £15.
