Seat Mii Electric steering and ABS issues

My 2021 Seat Mii electric is throwing some weird codes. Tire pressure low warning is on, but also the ABS lamp is lit, steering wheel vibrates like crazy, and the steering feels super heavy. Feels like the power steering is gone. Thinking pressure loss due to valve issue?

Whoa, that sounds rough! I had something similar happen with my Mii, though maybe not as intense. Kept getting the tire pressure low warning light. Checked the pressure with my tire gauge religiously and inflated tires every few days, but it kept coming back! Drove me absolutely bonkers. Did you check your pressure manually or just rely on the tire monitoring system?

So what was the root cause in your case? And did you experience similar issues, like the ABS lamp and steering problems?

Yep, same symptoms, more or less! Turned out to be a defective valve stem in one of the tires causing a slow leak. Because of the pressure loss, the ABS went haywire and that affected the power steering, apparently. Get it checked at a workshop pronto. Driving like that isn't safe.

Confirmed valve issue. Replaced all tires as they were near end of life anyway. Cost 280€.
