How many pounds of pressure do yours fluctuate from cold to hot. Mine cold 30, and hot 33, only 32, when raining, must be water cooled.

I put the miles on pretty quick, at 4,500, I'm changing every 60 days.

I get free oil changes for the first 2 years since it was a certified car. They will only change it when the DIC says it's time.

So how often do I change the oil in my tires? Do I need a left handed wrench for the left side?

No just turn over your metric crescent wrench.

Sounds like you need this.....

Seasonal Tire Air from KaleCoAuto....Only $28.90 plus shipping

Everyone knows that temperature can have a great impact in your tire pressure. This is why you absolutely should use the correct air for your tires! For example, your car should usually have the tires set to 32psi. If you are using summer air in the summer, this is fine. However! If you use this summer air in the dead of winter, your may actually only be running at about 22psi! Each can will do one average sized tire. Sold in sets of 1 each.

Cool stuff - is it available in a metric compatible size? Being in Can-a-duh, we are metric and are not allowed to speak that psi you mentioned. Here we typically run 220kPa in our tires.

And I read somewhere on the internet that psi-based air is not compatible with kPa air, so I don't even top up my tires when I am down in the USA. Better safe than sorry I say - if it saves but one childs life............ ;-)

Don't forget the import duties on non-Metric air, and then there are those "Air Sniffing" dogs at the border crossings you have to worry about.
