A field study on tyre inflation pressures and TPMS fitment on passenger cars carried out in Sweden, Germany and Spain between November 2016 and August 2017. The study is the first of its kind worldwide covering all types of TPMS and taking into account the specific tyre inflation pressure recommendations for cold tyres as well as the actual tyre temperatures at the time of measurement.
39. The expert from OICA introduced GRRF-86-17 containing the field study report on the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) fitment and tyre inflation pressure which was mentioned in GRRF-86-33 presented at the eighty-fourth session of GRRF.
41. The expert from OICA introduced GRRF-84-33, presenting the results of a study aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems in general and especially indirect and direct systems by comparing the actual tyre inflation pressures with the individual recommended pressures. The expert offered to share the details of the study on request. The expert from ETRTO offered to review the study.
42. No information was presented on existing regulations and laws on the mandatory use of TPMS.
