I have a set of new PS2 and they are very good. The problem is that when I park the car for an extended period (1 month or so), the right rear pressure sensor shows 27 psi while the 3 other tires show 30 psi. So I go ahead and pump the right side back to 30 psi and everything is fine. Then after parking for a while, then the right side is back down to 27 psi.

I had ask other people about a slow leak but they said the if I had a leak, it would not stop at 27 psi. Any ideal?

it's a leak.. i had a very small nail in my tire for over a year.. couldn't find it, leaked very slowly, finally took the wheel off the car and saturated the tire with windex....it works alot better than water for making small holes appear... why i couldn't find the nail is the head was worn off and the rest of the nail was actually below the surface of the tire.... try windex, it works great
oh yeah, by the name of your thread i thought i was going to read something about the "play station 2" game... good luck

Take the wheel off and then put soapy water on it, especially around the valve stem...the bubbles will show the leak. Put a tablespoon full of Dawn in a bucket of water.

This may sound simple but have you checked to see that the tire air stem core is tight ? ( I think that is what you call it )

Yea, the TPMS stem. It is very common to have a leak at the stem. Either it isn't tight enough (only 62 inch pounds) or it may have been overtightened and ruined the o-ring. I would concentrate on that as your leak source.

Similar thought for me, but I thought of the IBM PS/2, the Personal System 2 computer from the late 80's. Don't have a play station 2.

A small leak?

It's probably leaking at the value stem torque to 20 psi.
