Cold enough to trip the sensor, not steadily cold enough yet to prevent me from doing the tire pressure dance every week until Christmas.

TPMS = TPS = Could you fill those tires? That'd be greeeeeat.

What is the "tire pressure dance"

Did you ever notice that the tire pressure warning light looks like a little yellow butt?

Mine started yesterday. I actually attempted to get out and see how bad they were down, and it was 5lbs on the front tires and 3 in the rear. Damn this consistent cold

Working the tires to get some heat into them? That's the only thing I can think of.

Probably the cold affecting the sensor/ tire pressure. Meaning having to fill up one or more tyres every week to keep them even.

Oh God I wish, best commute ever. Traffic doesn't allow for that.

Fill your tires up with the blood of the unborn.

Working your way around each tire a few days a week until the weather stays cold enough to not screw with the pressure. It was 19*f last night, will be 32*f today, and will get back up to 68*f sometime at the end of this week.

Then it's back down around freezing for parts of next week.

Then I drive to warmer NC for Thanskgiving.

Then back up to NoVA for more freezing bullshit.

I expect to leak/fill the tires at least a few times between now and then.

Tried, got stares, told them it was deer blood, only got more stares

Almost like it's telling me it's about to shit on my commute!

Nice. I don't have TPMS. I just check them when I get once roughly once a week.

Mine just went off last night (Florida so its like 50 outside)

Really annoying because on the Civic it warns me every time I come to a stop and I get both that light and an orange INFO light on the dash and my display turns orange to warn me....

fuck you Honda

Rule #1 - Don't worry what others think.

If your system lets you train, lower the pressures to ~7 psi below where you normally have them and retrain. Fillem back up and you're good to go.
