My TPMS lights just came on.
My tires were at 28 psi.
I topped off to 35 psi and the light is gone.
Time to put your tire pressures to 35!

I also noticed some loud rubbing on the door window glass.
Cold is making the window snag on the weatherstrip.
What is the accepted solution?
For now, I applied a coat of lithium grease to the rubber weatherstripping.
The rubbing noise is gone for now.

I am going to jack up the car and spray some Fluid Film on most exposed nuts and bolts
At some point down the road, working on a less rusty car will be appreciated.

What else do you do for winter prep?
