What's the best tyre pressure gauge?
Can you recommend a reliable and accurate tyre pressure gauge. I have bought three over the last 4 months. One died within a few weeks and there is no way to replace the battery. The other two give different readings on the same tyre at the same time that are different by 4psi.

The good news here is that you don't have to spend big to get a good result. At around £8 the Draper Digital Tyre Pressure Reader (part no 01071) has come out on top in several independent tests and is one we'd certainly consider.

How accurate are tyre pressure devices? I gave three different ones and they all give slightly different readings.
If a tyre loses pressure a warning symbol appears on my instrument cluster in my Fiat 500. So why are we always advised to check tyre pressures regularly?
