yeah, when i bought mine, i was getting the same deal (on dealer tire pressure) so i raised them to what i like, and have had no problems since. lemme guess, your light goes away after a few minutes of driving?
I got that light just before I went for the 3750 checkup. Some d1ck must have bleeded one of my tires because the pressure was at 7psi when I drove it to the gas station on the way to the oil change. At least it wasn't a nail/hole, you can't patch a high performance tire (well... it's highly discouraged).

One of the reasons people push Nitrogen so much, about it fluctuating less... Actually has nothing to do with the Nitrogen. It's actually because the memranes they use to extract nitrogen, happens to also separate moisture from the air at the same time...
Anyways, I have my own 26 gallon tank and compressor, and I installed an inline line dryer... I haven't had the TPS come on in the cold since I started filling my own tires.
And FWIW, they come on at 28 pounds, not 34.

acually its still going on since yestorday morning. IT is however freezing here in new york for the past two days. Weather is around 14 - 25 degrees from morning till mid day and lower at night.
Im sure its no biggie but i dont like seeing the little light come on right after i buy the car u know?
P.S if the light is on ( which it is ) how do i know which tire needs it? they look fine to me.

Youre just better off checking all 4 tires and making sure theyre all exactly where you want them. what pressure you use is up to you. i played around till i got what felt right.
