Voici la phrase: Tire pressure must be check using a pressure gauge; thumping your tires with a hammer or “tire buddy” cannot determine correct pressure within 30%.
je souhaiterais la réponse de canadiens connaissant le jargon des chauffeurs routiers.

dégonfleur automatique
Bonjour Christiane,
A mon avis, il s'agit tout simplement d'un dégonfleur automatique. Les plus usités sont ceux de la marque STAUN.
Bon courage
Cordialement,
Bruno

: But you couldn't really hit a tyre with one of those little gizmos, could you? I think this is a more substantial kind of tool, see my reference entry...

une batte teste-pneu
Il s'agit d'un modèle de "tire thumper", sorte de batte lestée pour frapper les pneus des camions et évaluer leur gonflage; celui-ci s'appelle "tire buddy", et est fabriqué par une société qui s'appelle Roadpro.
Il existe effectivement un dégonfle-pneu du même nom, mais ce ne peut être cela, puisque le contexte parle de "frapper le pneu" pour évaluer son degré de gonflage. On ne peut pas faire cela avec un morceau de métal de quelques centimètres qui pèse quelques dizaines de grammes.
"Another good way to check tire pressure is whacking them with something hard, like a Tire Buddy, like the truck drivers do. Faster then a gauge, less accurate, but you'll know when they're lowish... Of course when you have 18+ tires to check the speed is important."

Some kind of tool...
...to do with fitting tyres to rims, presumably.
Looks like it might even be a proprietary name.
Tire Buddy
In a nut shell--You simply use the Tire Buddy's to ease the install of the tire on the rim, you clip the buddy to the rim to keep the tire at the position ...

Quand vous dites "le terme normal est dégonfleur", je ne suis pas d'accord non plus.
Un "tire buddy" peut être deux choses tout à fait différentes
1. un dégonfleur de pneus / jauge de pression (http://www.parksoffroad.com/prodreview/deflatortest/tirebudd... puisqu'il y a une "preset pessure" et une vis de réglage
2. une espèce de batte de baseball/matraque lestée avec laquelle on frappe les pneus pour évaluer leur état de gonflage. Il existe aussi un autre terme, comme vous l'indiquez, "tire billy" (http://www.bookrags.com/tandf/tire-billy-tf/)
"Very wise safety supervisors point out that it makes as much sense to thump the side of your oil pan to see how full it is as it does to bang on tires with a tire thumper. All a "tire billy" will do is show you a seriously under-inflated tire. It won't show you one that's 10 or 20 lbs under."

to thump : to strike or beat with something thick and heavy, so as to produce a dull sound; pound.
