is there any way to calibrate a sensor that reads off? my drivers rear wheel has read 10 psi lower than actual since i got the car back in 2021. whenever i get new tires ill go ahead and replace them since they are now a decade old this year, but until then it would be nice to have them read accurately, if at all possible.

Nah, that's not gonna happen. Usually these TPMS's last about 8-9 years, and once one, or a couple of them read off that much, it's time to replace them. Only thing you can do is keep your tires checked all the time to be safe. Replace them all when you get new tires. Good luck.

Yes sir, no worries. I had one like that too, but it was only off about 3 lbs, but enough for me to be a PITA, even though I check my TP all the time. Just like the assurance of seeing what's really current with a push of the button.
