yup the 124s. well i guess if you're going over a small speed bump at 85mph chances are most rims will have some sort of damage.

85mph over speed bumps.
The damage is not just on the wheels, I think it will be on the car too

Specifically the catalyser shaking loose.

Expensive.

>was driving yesterday when I got the Puncture error pop up on screen -

I had this happen, and for a few weeks I'd curse at the warning, do a reset and carry on. Eventually I got the tyres checked and I had a nail in one tyre that was caused a very slow leak, all sort of embarrasing considering I'd been ignoring it for about a month or two!

-My takeaway from this...don't just assume this is just a software glitch..it could actually be telling you something useful
