    Passenger rear tyre pressure

    My passenger rear tyre increases pressure much more and quicker than any others (I have monitors). Seems to go up by 5-7psi where the others might go up by 2-4psi. Happens within about 10 mins as well at times.

    Anything I should be looking for? Should I get my rear shocks checked?

    Cheers

    Paul.

    I'm just taking wild guesses here.

    Do you have SLS?

    I have recently replaced the front springs in my D2 twice and the springs are about 20mm different left to right. You would usually expect the vehicle to sit lop sided but apparently the D2 is heavier one side than the other.

    Maybe you SLS is compensating for an uneven front end but then I'd expect the oppposing front tire to be doing the same.

    What about sway bars? Do you have ACE? Maybe there's an issue there?

    Are they all the same tyre?

    Are they all the same starting pressure?

    Happy Days.

    I used to have an uneven front heights, but I then tuned the rear SLS sensors (calibrated) and now the front sits pretty much even.


    Try swapping the rear tyres around and see if it still happens or happens to the other tyre/side?

    I think you have to wonder now, is your SLS compensating for uneven springs in the front?

    Happy Days.

    Start with the basics.

    What is the cold pressure in that tyre?
    Does the car sit level, left to right?
    Try swapping the rear wheels, or if you have screw on pressure sensors swap them. It could just be a tyre pressure sensor fault.

    I don't know if the Disco suffers the same but I know Toyotas sag terribly on the Drivers side due to the transfer case hanging that way as well as the diffs both being off set to the drivers side.

    Maybe the springs are getting soft on the other side.

    Happy Days.
