In still familiarising myself with my A110, especially some of the new fangled tech! I have synced the My Alpine App with my car and noticed it can report tyre pressures from the last journey. When I first looked the app was showing 0.1 PSI for all four tyres. I assumed I needed to have my phone in the car and go for a drive 'post sync' in order for the App to update but it is still showing four flat tyres.

Have I missed something? Do I need to sync it again to get the result? I'm assuming it updates automatically once the initial syncing has been completed.

I didn’t need to do anything to make mine work. Perhaps it’s the onboard tpms reset that’s required? Accessed on the stalks and instrument display.

I doubt the TPMS reset procedure has anything to do with your problem at the My Alpine App, as you would get a warning at the instrument display if that is needed to be done.

Check if the "allow data transfer" option (or something similar, however that message is exactly called in english) is activated in the car setup menue at center screen.

Interesting to hear that it now does tyre pressures.

I got rid of the App last year as it was rubbish.

Just downloaded it again thinking that it may have improved.

It is still saying under Maintenance that a major service is due......every Month laugh

I wouldn't pay much attention to it. Get a digital air gauge reader from the AA £9.99 and a bicycle foot pump.

The onboard computer tells you if the pressure that you set, has dropped.

Won't tell you which tyre though.
