Peugeot 308 electric low tire pressure ABS issues

Hey, got a weird one with my 2023 Peugeot 308 electric. Getting a low tire pressure warning, but it's acting up in other ways too. Besides the low tire icon, the ABS light's on, the steering wheel vibrates like crazy, and it feels like the power steering is struggling - takes way more effort to turn. I've checked the pressures with my tire gauge and one tire does seem a bit low. Anyone else had something similar?

Whoa, that sounds familiar! I had almost the exact same thing happen with my old Volvo V60 a few years back. Low tire pressure triggered all sorts of weirdness with the ABS and steering. Have you checked the tire itself closely for any signs of damage or a slow puncture? Could be a nail or something.

Yeah, I gave the tire a quick once-over, but didn't see anything obvious. Could a tiny leak really cause all those issues? Seems like a lot of systems getting messed up over just a bit of pressure loss.

Believe it or not, yes! On my Volvo, it turned out to be a faulty valve in the tire. Leaking slowly but messing with everything. If you're seeing multiple system warnings, it's worth getting it checked out by a shop. Don't risk driving too much with the power steering acting up.

Thanks. I'll book it in with a shop. I appreciate the advice!
