We have now had a few snow falls and we were down to -9F last night.

1. Versa started at -9 no problem and no block heater- (was outside).

2. The TMPS goes on when the temp gets below 14F( every time!)

3.The Vesa warms up in the 5-10 minute range but really needs 10 min minimum to be in good shape in cold weather.

4. Snow does not slide of the headlights well and they need to be cleaned off in the morning if it has snowed the night before.(if you need your lights in the morning)

5. I have no problem keeping the windows defrosted, as long as the car has had time to warm up.

6. No problems in snow so far.

I was wondering what the temp was everytime my TPMS light has come on was. Something about 11,000 feet in elevation too does not help.

Does the light go off when the tires warm up?

I had my tires at 35psi when it was 50F outside. They were 32psi when it was 15F this morning. I added some air to keep the pesky light away.
