TPMS Sensors Read 2 to 3 PSI low in Denver?
I noticed that when I check my TPMS sensor readings on the car computer and compare that with mechanical gauge readings at each tire that there is a 2 to 3 PSI difference.
I'm guessing the lighter air in Denver has something to do with this because the sensors are probably calibrated for sea level. Has anyone else in Denver noticed this?

I have noticed this from the beginning, and it's a little frustrating. I also noticed that the Pirelli's had a pretty big difference between pressure cold and hot. My Nitto Invo's don't have as much variance. The most annoying thing for me is the warning light when I know full well that the pressure is just fine.

Hmmm.... I'll have to check my wife's Terrain to see if there is a difference there as well...
