I would be really interested to know 2 things.
1) For a given carried weight on a tire, how much variation in "cold" air pressure does the manufacturer expect before they would recommend making a pressure adjustment. Obviously they aren't taking their inflation tables literally, if they did we could never drive anrwhere, we would be too busy checking tire pressures.
2) How repatably reliable are TPMS's. What Tom just reported would drive me nuts. I don't require that all sensors read the same when at the same pressure, but I would go nuts if the same pressure is reported different at different times. In that case I would soon start ignoring the thing, perhaps to my detriment.
