Never heard of a warm-tire inflation method.

Tires should only be inflated and its pressure measured while it is cold (ambient temp).

I read somewhere that you must add additional 4 psi if your tires are warm?

Planning to replace the stock yokohama tires of my innova 2013. May recommended ba kayong tire shop within QC area? Pinagpipilian ko lang is either bridgestone or yokohama. Same stock specs. Thanks.

check super miler. nagppromo din yan sila.

It is not a fixed number. But the math is simple. You must add 1psi for every 10F (5.5C) above tire cold temp. Example: Assume 25C is tire cold temp and 33psi your tire recommended pressure. If you will fill air during hot afternoon and temp is say 36C, then you need add 2psi more. 36 - 25 = 11 / 5.5 = 2psi. So fill up to 35psi.

Removing most of the guesswork is precisely why tires should be pressure-calibrated while cold, typically in the morning.

There are a lot of factors involved when the tire has already been warmed up. There’s even a whole paper written about it: http://www.cis.rit.edu/~cnspci/references/lin2004.pdf

Remember that the relatively cool air you pump into a warm tire will also expand after driving for a bit. And depending on how much ‘cool’ air you added, the final pressure could end up higher than what was computed.

I could be wrong but I choose to side with caution.

i put in 33 psi when cold weather, and 35 psi when hot weather.
over the years, the tread wear pattern appears to agree with my wild guess.

Thanks! Will try to lower to 35psi for now

get a tire gauge..and check pressures in the morning.

may epekto po ba pag yun aircon cabin filter ay medyo maitim na posible po ba na mabawasan ang lamig ng aircon

Ultimately, yes. Hihina kasi yung airflow so hindi na efficient yung A/C.

ayun kaya pala po parang humina magkano nga po uli kaya yun ganun kahit estimate lang po

[dr. d]

ayun kaya pala po parang humina magkano nga po uli kaya yun ganun kahit estimate lang po

palitan (several hundreds?) o hugasan.
hinuhugasan ko yung akin.
gentle hand wash lang, so as not to deform. then hang to dry.
estimate ko, 6 pesos (presyo ng isang tide, na hindi mo ma-uubos).

the hard part, is to remove the filter. you have to remove the lower glovebox from its swivel mounts. it's difficult, the first time, because it feels like may mababasag kayo.

ngayon... kung mamalasin kayo... wala kayong aircon filter! nguni at, napaka-dumi na ng evaporator nyo! now, that will necessitate a trip to the aircon shop and serious money.

good luck, po.

madali ga lang po matuyo yun sir pede po ba ion ang aircon ng wala un filter?

[sphinxz]

madali lang matuyo yun pero as the doc says, kelangan gentle ka sa paglilinis. maghihimulmol yan kapag nasobrahan. me personally, I replace them. online sellers are abundant. price can go as low as 200 each.

I bought this when it was P368 on Lazada. Now it's about P50 more expensive, but still reasonable. It's a little bigger than the OEM so I had to squeeze it in there. I think maybe it's for a different vehicle than what was written on the description.

Avoid using the A/C without a cabin filter. Mas mahal magpalinis ng A/C kesa palitan yung filter.

With a filter, an A/C system cleaning can be done every 4-5 years. Kung walang filter, baka every year ka magpapa-linis.

salamat po sa reply mga sir mas mataas cguro sa casa un filter ano po

I recomm3nd nitrogen instead or pure air for your tire inflation, then you will get the constant pressure even on hot or cold tires.

78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen mix na lang po.
after some weeks, the oxygen would have leaked out thru the rubber, leaving behind an enriched nitrogen mix. do this a few more times, and you eventually achieve a high-nitrogen gas mixture in the tire, at no extra cost.

btw...
constant pressure despite high and low tire temperatures?
this goes against the laws of science.
baka hulihin tayo ng science police.

Pure notrogen ginagamit ko basta maganda ang fit ng tire mo hindi yan sisingaw, proven ko na yan anytime ako maglong drive hindi ako nangingilag sa explosion. Since 2007 pa ako gumagamit ng nitrogen,,, yaan mo na yung science basta himdi yan mag eexpand tulad ng air from air compressor.

pure from a nitrogen cylinder or nitrogen generator?
