Peugeot 5008 Tire Pressure ABS and Steering Issues

My 2010 Peugeot 5008 (gasoline) has a low tire pressure warning, ABS light, steering wheel vibration, and heavy steering at 177631 km. Could a defective valve stem be the problem?

Hey! I had almost the exact same issue with my 5008. Constant low tire pressure warnings, the ABS light popping on, and the steering felt heavy. Did you check if the tire pressure is actually low, or if it's just the sensor acting up?

I've checked the tire pressures, and there's a slow pressure loss, more noticeable in colder temperatures. Was your experience similar, especially the temperature correlation?

Yes! The temperature definitely seemed to make it worse. After messing with it for a few weeks and constantly refilling the tire, I just took it to a workshop. They found a tiny leak around the valve stem, which I guess is pretty common. Saved me a lot of headache in the end.

I took your advice and it turned out to be a faulty valve. Repair cost 280€. Thank you for your advice!
