2009 CIVIC 2-DOOR Si Tire Pressure Monitoring System Aluminum Wheel Instructions
The information in this installation instruction is intended for use only by skilled technicians who have the proper tools, equipment, and training to correctly and safely add equipment to your vehicle. These procedures should not be attempted by “do-it-yourselfers.”
NOTE:
• This aluminum wheel is designed for use on the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) vehicle.
• This aluminum wheel is equipped with the TPMS sensor. See the Service Manual for tire replacement procedure and TPMS sensor installation procedure (paragraph of Tire Pressure Sensor Replacement).
• The illustration of the aluminum wheels are shown for reference purposes only.
• Install the correct size tire.
• Use a tire changer to remove and install the tires. Using a tire lever to remove and install the tires can damage to the tire, the wheel, and the TPMS sensor.
• The wheel nut torque is 108 N·m (80 lbf-ft)
1. Clean the mating surface and the valve hole of the aluminum wheel.
2. Install the tire pressure sensor and the washer to the aluminum wheel, and loosely install the valve nut. Make sure the pressure sensor is resting on the wheel.
NOTE: Install the tire pressure sensor so that the sensor housing surface does not protrude into the bead area of the wheel to prevent the sensor housing from being caught on the bead of the tire.
3. Torque the valve nut to 4 N·m (3 lbf-ft) while holding the tire pressure sensor toward the wheel.
NOTE:
• Do not reuse the grommet that had been tightened, even one time, to the specified torque, as they are deformed inside.
• Do not use air or electric impact tools to tighten the valve stem nut.
• Tightening the nut beyond the specified torque can damage the nut.
4. Install the tires according to the instructions in the service manual.
5. Install the wheels on the vehicle and torque the wheel nuts to 108 N·m (80 lbf-ft).
