Tyre Pressure Monitor - where is it?

Hi,

I have a 2008 (57) base Cayman and I can't find the tyre pressure monitor system on the on board computer. Is is standard on my car or is it an option which I don't have. I didn't buy the car new but can't find how to use it. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

James

Did you get an Owner's Manual with the car? There is a section on using the OBC to control TPMS. If you don't have one you can download a PDF copy of the '06 manual from the files section here.

Yes I have looked through the manual and then gone through the options on the on board computer but tyre pressures is not there. I only have 4 options on the OBC and tyre pressures isn't one of them. Perhaps it is not standard on UK cars?

This previous thread would suggest it is an option there. http://www.planet-9.com/cayman-uk/...d-uk-cars.html
