I let my asian hombre drive my fine lady today and well....a mystical light popped on ( _!_ ) looks like a butt I know. the car has 3k miles on it! brand new and what not and well is a four door Si. Im not familiar with the engine codes for honda as I am new to the scene....anyone got a quick answer for it?

that symbol means your tire pressure is low

skrimpz · 10-10-2008, 04:29 PM

do you by chance know of any quick resources that would give me descriptive details pretaining to these said symbols that look like butts

***Phalanx*** · 10-10-2008, 04:31 PM

thats your low tire pressure light.

ther eis one that looks like a triangle w/ an ! in it... that is your VSA light

redhotcivichick · 10-10-2008, 04:32 PM

use a tire pressure gauge (if you have one) or go to the gas station and use theirs (i dunno how accurate it will be) find the tire that's low and fill it with air... 32psi it should be all around

skrimpz · 10-10-2008, 04:35 PM

looks like VSA!

redhotcivichick · 10-10-2008, 04:36 PM

Does it really matter that your friend is Asian?

asndragonboii · 10-10-2008, 04:49 PM

Dont let an asian drive your car.. EVAR. They will mess your car up and cause butt symbols to come up on your dash

It's not a check engine light. Its your tire pressure light

packers04 · 10-10-2008, 04:52 PM

you should check your tire pressure when all the tires are cold though, otherwise you will get an inaccurate reading.

Think of it just like that. The answer then becomes obvious.

It's not the dealer's responsibility to air up your tires, just as it is not the dealer's responsibility to fuel your car when it has no gas.
