The light would have come on due to you changing wheels and the fact the pressure in the tyres may be different.GTi_Red wrote:hi mate what sort of pressure will you be running you tyres at on dunes? mine are at 35psi atm and it brought the tyre pressure light on, ive reset it now and all seems to be ok? any ideas?

Now you have reset this to the new set up it won't come back on unless you lose pressure in one of your tyres.

So whilst I'm sorting tidying up the bay thought I would get rid of the expansion bottle so ordered an inline filler and
19-21PSI cap. Will up load pics once they have arrived.
When I rebuilt the engine it got uprated rods, pistons and all ARP hardware but the head was stock. This has always played on my mind so wanted to up rate the valve train.
As the engine was out I thought this was the best time to do it and low on behold a bargain came my way.
BAM head with full supertech valve train fitted which has been ported and polished so I can now rev the nuts off of the engine knowing it can handle it.
Won't be collecting it for a while due to other commitments but here is a little pic I have of my new purchase.
