i'm getting my first service done to my car tomorrow morning. but the tire monitor sensor just lit up on my dashboard just this night. i must have hit something when i went to the project revolution concert on friday but i can't afford new tires and or wheels and at the same time i don't want to put air in my tires every two days

they're filled up with nitrogen i don't want to mix it with you know, air.

oh boy what to do.

well since now one else has yet, ill throw ya some answers/ideas

if all it is, is that the tire pressure monitor light is on, then just add some air to the tire, as for the mixing of air and nitrogen.. just add the air, its 70% nitrogen anyways, the whole idea behind nitrogen inflation is that nitrogen molecules are larger then the molecules that make up airand therefore leak out slower, well 10 years now of filling up tires with regular air and ive never had a problem.

odds are one of your tires is just low, so add the air and that should turn off your light within a couple of minutes after putting air into it, i mean unless your tire is going flat everyday you probabally wont have to replace a tire, and say you did drive over a nail or something, you could always have it patched/plugged as long as its not in the sidewall.

also what does the first service involve? without ever having of done it, i bet its a scam/ripoff,
