GEN 2 TPMS values on a 2019

[Raptor911]

So I have a 2019 and I can check my TPMS values via the Ford app ... even when my engine is off. I always find that the readings are always 2-3 psi off when compared to my hand held gauge. BTW .. I have a decent gauge and it is not a pencil type.

For example .. right now the app is telling me now that my fronts tires are 38psi and the rears are 36psi. My hand held gauge says the fronts are 35 and the rears are 34.

I am tempted to buy another gauge to check my hand held gauge.

Anyone else see the same?

Mine show 2 pounds off on the dash compared to multiple gauges. Dash says 38, gauges say 36.

That is what I wanted to hear. Thank you!

Nice to see another Canadian!

trust your hand held gauge!

Choose one gauge and use it. A few pounds really doesn’t make that much difference for most of us in our Raptors.

I don’t know how much you are into varying the air pressure and you likely know this...but for a street type vehicle the oversteer/understeer can be fine tuned with air pressure.

I do this with my ‘74 Alfa as we drive it in a spirited fashion

Same here. Ironically, I just checked this yesterday on my 2019. I used 2 gauges (to see if one of them was off (they weren't)) and found that each of the 4 tires was 2 lbs of pressure lower from what the TPMS stated.

Well that makes it about worthless, is there some reason they can’t be accurate? Could use a little German precision on these things.
