Karoq Tire Pressure Warning and ABS Lamp Issue

I'm having trouble with my 2018 Skoda Karoq diesel. The low tire pressure warning keeps appearing, and the ABS lamp is also lit. I've checked the pressures, and one seems to be losing air faster than the others. I also noticed the steering wheel is vibrating and it feels like increased effort is required when steering, like the power steering may have failed. Could this be a tire sensor issue related to the pressure loss, or something more serious?

Sounds like the tire sensor is acting up. I had similar issues on my Karoq. The ABS light came on too. Do you notice any difference in the steering?

Yes, the steering feels heavier than usual, almost like the power steering is failing sometimes. Could that really be related to a low tire or the tire monitoring system?

Heavier steering is what I experienced too. The tire sensor might be sending incorrect info to the car's computer, messing with the power steering assist. It's best to get it checked at a workshop. It could be a defective valve or a problem with the tire monitoring itself.

It was a faulty valve causing slow pressure loss. I replaced it and the tire sensor for 280€. Everything is working now, thanks for the help!
