I’m guna play with the psi tomorrow, maybe lower the psi then raise it back to 33-36 ish on all tires and see what happens.

Good! I have played the "one more week should be fine" game with summer tires and almost paid the price.

It won't be a sensor I will 98% guarantee it. I run my tire very close to the lower limit and every single year I get the TPMS light when it gets cold. A couple more PSI has always set it right. It is so regular that when it happens I book my snow tire change.

Oh yea I know that feeling. Going 120 on the highway feels so sketchy with the bald tires. Every time it rains and I make a left turn, I can hear the rear slipping, even at 20 Kph. I already booked an appointment with the guy who changes my tires.

Awesome! I’ll just put some air tomorrow to mess with it and see if it goes away. Even if it doesn’t, I’m just guna slap on the winters and leave the old sensor on and live with the light... This proves my point that older cars are better. Less bs to go wrong. I check my tires biweekly, along with my oil.
