Air Compressor Recommendation
With the cold weather in upstate NY I am weekly checking the tire pressure in my 2017 450h and filling with air at the dealership.
I recently purchased a Slime AC compressor to avoid going to the dealer but the fitting of the compressor does not make
a good connection with the tire stem creating loss of air.
Can someone recommend a portable air compressor that can do the job?

I recommend VIAIR. I own the 400P Portable Compressor. It's an amazing unit and VIAIR's warranty is good as gold; a great company to deal with on matters. Mine has to be connected to the battery terminals, but it's a serious unit that can inflate a fully empty tire in mere minutes. My elderly mother resides in a retirement community and when I visit her I always check her vehicle's tire pressures with this unit. Great for traveling too.
