Default TPMS skips numbers?

Has anyone noticed that their TPMS readout skips certain numbers as the tire pressure changes when the tires heat and cool? I've noticed on my 911 TTS that the numbers 34, 40, 43 and 45 seem to be skipped. Anyone else?

That is due to the bar to psi conversion. Play around with this converter. https://www.unitconverters.net/pressure/bar-to-psi.htm

As an example, 2.5 bar would round to 36 psi, where 2.6 bar would round to 38 psi.

That's what is causing the skipped psi numbers.

A very poor implementation by Porsche...
