Deviated tire pressure
On my 2022 Turbo I got an error message the front left was -6 psi. I topped off all the tires to match the manufacturer tire pressure sticker inside the door.
However I noticed the front left was only -1 using a high quality digital gauge. The TPMS display showed everything was correct. Yet the error message persists over several days of driving. Thinking that perhaps I have a sensor going out, I schedule a service appointment and take the vehicle into service. Their solution: Add more pressure to the front tires. They say this is the official Porsche recommended solution. Does this sound right?
At this point, in order to avoid an annoying error message, I have to run my tires 5 psi over the recommended pressures.
