Default Re: Tire monitoring system override

I am experiencing this as well - and right to F5's explanation. The weather has been in the 20s here the last few mornings. The TPM conistently goes off after 500 feet and shuts off after approximately two miles.

I surmise that as F5 stated, the TPM is sensing a low TP on cold mornings. Thus, once the friction of travel occurs, the wheels, tires, and subsequently air heats up to proper TP and *wala* the TPM alert goes back to sleep.

It is a bit disconcerting, but I am willing to deal with it.

Incidentally, does the spare really have a TPM in it? And what would be a good tire pressure to run in the winter to avoid this TPM alert if possible?

FWIW, i had the cold morning TP issue as well. I just upped my psi a little to deal with it.
I like to run my tires at around 37 psi as well. what psi does everyone else run?

I have been keeping PSI at 35lbs on road and 18lbs offroad.
22,000 miles no uneven wear.
the dealer rotated at 8,000 ,one tire had a small cut so spare was rotated in.(dealer programed spare tire in)
I skiped the 16,000 rotation and will be rotating myself again at 24,000


The duelers are holding up great
