What is the right tire pressure for a Honda Pilot?

The recommended tire pressure for most Honda Pilots is 35 PSI for its front and rear tires. However, if you have an older Pilot, the recommended tire pressure may be 32 PSI for both front and rear tires.

To verify the tire pressure your vehicle requires, consult your owner’s manual or look inside your driver’s side door. There should be an exact tire pressure measurement printed there.

How to check Honda Pilot tire pressure

All new Honda Pilot models come equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), which continuously checks tire pressure and alerts the driver when it dips below an acceptable level. The tire pressure for each tire will be displayed on the Driver Information Interface (DII), and the TPMS will send a warning notification to your dashboard when it’s time to inflate your tires.

That’s all well and good if you have a newer Pilot, but what if you’re cruising around with an older model? Don’t worry, there are some quick and easy ways to check your Pilot’s tire pressure without the snazzy new technology!

To check each of your Pilot’s tire pressure, simply remove the tire’s valve stem caps, put a tire pressure gauge into the valve stem, and press down. You will receive an immediate PSI reading.

You can also usually tell by feel if your Pilot needs more air to its tires. For example, if your Pilot pulls to a certain side while driving, that usually means that a tire on that side is low on air pressure. You also may experience poor ride quality and decreased responsiveness. When in doubt, it’s always best to check your tire pressure!

How often should you check tire pressure?

It’s recommended that you check your vehicle’s tire pressure about once a month.

How to tell if your Honda Pilot needs new tires

As tires age, they eventually lose the ability to hold air properly and will need to be replaced. How do you know when it’s time to let those old tires go?

As a general rule of thumb, you should get new tires once yours are more than six years old. But don’t just wait six years to take action—if you notice low tread depth or odd cracks and bulges in your tires, these are signs that they need to be replaced.

How to reset the Honda Pilot Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) light

If your Honda Pilot’s TPMS light remains on even after you’ve refilled the air in your tires, you may need to

reset your TPMS

. Here’s how to do that:

If your Pilot has a touchscreen display:

Select “Settings” from the home screen

Select “Vehicle”

Select “TPMS Calibration”

Select “Calibrate”

If your Pilot doesn’t have a touchscreen display:

Use the steering wheel buttons and scroll to the “Settings” screen

Select “TPMS Calibration”

Select “Calibrate”

If the TPMS warning light remains on after calibration or if it flashes, it may mean that the system is malfunctioning. A wheel or tire may have been replaced incorrectly—and you should stop by a trusted mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue.
