Peugeot 2008 Tire Pressure ABS and Steering Issues

I've got a worrying issue with my 2015 Peugeot 2008 (gasoline engine). The tire pressure warning light keeps popping up. I've checked the tire pressures, and they seem okay, but now the ABS lamp is on, the steering wheel is vibrating like crazy, and it feels like the power steering is failing! Anyone else experienced this weird combo?

Whoa, that's quite the collection of symptoms! A vibrating wheel and power steering issues along with the tire pressure? You sure all the tires are inflated properly? Evenly worn? It does sound like more than just a slightly low tire. Does the shaking get worse at higher speeds?

Yeah, I've checked the pressures a couple of times, and they're all good. The shaking does get worse the faster I go. Could a defective tire valve really cause all this?

Alright, if the pressures are definitely correct and the shaking worsens with speed, plus the ABS light... that's pointing to something beyond just needing inflated tires. A defective tire valve could be the culprit if it's messing with the tire pressure monitoring system and causing these knock-on effects. I'd seriously consider getting it checked by a workshop ASAP.

Thanks a lot for the advice! I took it to a local garage, and you were spot on. Turns out it was a faulty valve in the tire that screwed with the tire monitoring system, triggering everything else. The repair cost me 280€, but at least it's sorted!
