Are you filling them up during the day when it's hot and then getting reports when the weather is colder?

and it doesn't necessarily need to be warm out. you can drive the car for 20 mins and get the tires warm, check pressures, then let it cool, you will see as much as 6 psi difference....

PS you are setting them to 36psi COLD, right?

i havent gone above 38.. but a week later it says im down to 31 and flashes on the screen.. itll go away after about 10 min of driving but it doesnt pick up higher than 32.. so i know its losing the air somehow.

36psi cold is what is recommended. Same front and rear. Use the button on the face of the stalk (turn signals etc) to change the DIC view and then the twist control (same stalk) to switch between avail info views and you will find the TPMS display of the four tires and their corresponding pressures...
