I want the system on, I just don't want to have to see warnings when the pressure hasn't changed from wherever it was last time I drove the car. Why would it be giving me a flat tire warning when the sensor is reading 35psi? or a -5 warning on one rear when the other rear tire has the same pressure? Seems like they screwed the pooch on system design here.

But you are correct about the manual. The display is to be used as a guidline, not used for accurate reading of the tire pressures.

2007 C2S. New sensors. Exactly the same problem. I sent two manual gauges to be calibrated. I know what the pressure is. TPMS is wrong. I got tired of inaccurate alarm so I over inflate the tires. The software should allow the setting of the value.
