Service TPMS
Driving my (new to me) 2010 GS home for the first time the Service TPMS came on my DIC
I checked the air pressure with a gauge and the left rear was a little low at 26psi. I fill them all to 32 PSI and the warning went away.
Coming home today the alert came on again. This time I checked and the pressure was 32 PSI. When I restarted the car the alert went away again.
I am running Michelin Pilot Sports and not the OEM run flats. Could this be the problem or is it time to buy a new TPM?

the odd readings. Whether you run RF's or non-RF's makes no difference. Again, if they're the original sensors, they need to be replaced.

I agree with above. If these are still the original sensors they are likely the issue and fading out. If you lose a sensor all together, you'll likely see "xx" on the display meaning it's not communicating. You can get AC Delco replacements through Rock Auto or even Amazon for a good price. The type of tire would have nothing to do with the sensor function.

The Michelin Pilot Sports were on the car when I bought it. The first time I got the alert the rr sensor displayed XX. But then it was fine and the last time I got the alert it read the correct pressure of 32 PSI. But, I am pretty sure that they are original to the car.
