When the car was delivered, all 4 tyres were overinflated to about 48 PSI. I’m not sure why the TPMS did not show any warning.

Took delivery of my N-Line N8 DCT a couple of days ago.
Firstly, I would like to thank all the members who shared their views and experiences of this car on the forum. The sort of knowledge that gets shared here helps a lot in decision making. I’m not much of a writer so not going to make it an elaborate post but will just share a few details and let the pictures do the talking.
Got the car through Shreem Hyundai, Mahalaxmi. Quite decent and hassle-free experience. No major hiccups, except that there was a small issue with the fasttag and the Blue Link activation (but apparently it was a server issue so not much to do with the dealership and the sales guy was quite helpful throughout).
- Got the car in about 5 weeks. In between, I went to their stockyard for (pre-registration) PDI. Once again, the PDI checklist on the forum helped a lot.
- This is my first proper automatic car, so enjoying the whole experience a lot. The driving experience has been superb so far.
- No major upgrades planned as such. I got mudflaps installed and a few other cosmetic accessories through Hyundai like the door edge guards, scuff plates etc. Post-delivery got: 1. Paint sealant coating 2. Rodent repellent coating (there’s a garden right next to where I park my car and I see rats quite often there ) and 3. Antirust coating done through 3M Car Care. My friend has been taking care of his Punto there for years and he is quite happy with their service. So took the car there on his recommendation.
- At the delivery, all 4 tyres were overinflated to about 48 Psi. I was aware of this through a couple of delivery videos. So the first thing I did was set the correct tyre pressure after delivery when I went to tank up. The pump was just a few meters away from the showroom. Though I filled 33 psi in all 4 wheels, the TPMS keeps showing 32-34 randomly in all 4 wheels. Also, I am not sure why it didn’t show a warning when the pressure was 48 psi.

Here’s what BHPian anandmv had to say about the matter:
Congratulations! Looks stunning.
In my case, the TPMS started blaring as soon as we set out from the showroom as the psi was low on all tyres. Thankfully, there was a bunk nearby and we could refill pronto. It has been a couple of weeks since and TPMS shows anywhere between 31 and 34 while driving.
