Hi,

I bought an 07 RX400H SEL a few weeks back. :)

Yesterday I noticed the front right tyre looked a little deflated so I drove to the local Morrisons Supermarket and tried to use their digital air hose.

I set the PSI to 33 (as the handbook says) but when I put the air hose on the valve I noticed it didn't fit very well at all and you could hear the air escaping. The machine tried to fill the tyre but I think it could sense a losing battle and displayed and error code on the digital display and gave up. The net result was I lost more air than I was trying to put in!!!

Also, each wheel valve seem to have the same problem??? not just isolated to one valve.

The machine was working because I observed someone before and after me use the machine without a problem.

Anybody else experienced any issues with valves on an RX and filling up air from Supermarket digital machines???
