carmanick explains... Direct vs Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS)

I have gathered over the years from my career and love of cars, and having owned many, random knowledge. I've thought recently maybe some of it might be of interest to others, and to support my channel content,
My first video is on Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems, explaining how the two different systems work; direct and indirect.
Let me know if this was new news to you and interesting! I know all that all the info is available across the internet, but I'm hoping my video provides a snappy, visual way of explaining.
Happy to answer any questions as always, and for any corrections to what i have said. I don't have all the answers and some things I may not know or quote correctly!

Really good job Nick!

Direct TPMS sounds more practical👍

[@carmanick]

@@vivekjaiswal2422 yeah it sure is. It's much more useful and informative but it's more expensive for car companies to fit, and there's more to go wrong over time. Direct is less likely to work on older cars as the batteries in tyres are not likely to be replaced !

@@carmanick I agree what you told for old cars, since I have a new car with active TPMS in built, now it's very convenient for me to check the tyre pressure accurately in day to day running.
I am assuming my old car had indirect TPMS that was also good.
