Help Understanding some 2017 Stuff

Not sure about this stuff i cant find anything searching the 17 forum so here goes.

1. There has to be a better\easier way to check the tire pressure on the DRW any suggestions ie how or tricks and good tire gauges to do this (sorry new to DRW)

2.In the ceiling console there are two circle things pointing at each front seat, 2 for each side....mics????? don't have a clue.

3. Is it possible to lock the key fob into the truck and use the pad on the door to get in???? if i leave my fob in the truck and lock the door with the door lock, get out of the truck....it honks twice at me and unlocks the doors.


4. Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this........the last two times i drove the truck for any sort of extended time (freeway), when i was coming to a stop to park i am getting a faint smell of oil....is anyone else had/getting this?

5. Love the sound of turbos....this new truck is so quite (old truck an 02 PS) i can hear everything.........is it normal to hear the turbo in these new trucks??????i hear a faint whistle almost like sounds like blowing into a empty beer bottle to make it whistle.

Thanks in advance

Press the 7/8 and 9/0 buttons at the same time to lock with the pad. The bottom two buttons. That will lock with the fob inside.
