Bought my G35 on Xmas, problems already!

So I've owned my 2005 G35 Coupe 5AT with 70k miles for three days, driven it ~100 miles, and two problems have arisen.
First, today, after not driving it for ~30 hours, the tire pressure light came on and stayed on. I read the manual and it seems like the tire pressure is supposed to be at ~28 psi for cold weather on the 19" Aero package tires. With my (admittedly cheap) tire pressure gauge I read ~35 on all 4 tires. So wtf?
Second, when costing down a slight decline at ~30mph, there is sometimes a ringing sound from the rear left of the car. Any ideas?
Before I bought it I took it to a trusted garage and had a very thorough pre-purchase inspection they OKayed it, so this is a pretty sucky situation.
I know I'm a noob but I've been lurking for a few weeks so please go easy on me!

Congrats on your purchase but your G sounds better than mine lol. I had my door lock die during the 2nd week of owning it.
The G has a bunch of rattle so I wouldn't worry too much about the rear noise. Could be the brakes.
About the TPMS, buy a proper gauge and check pressure. Take some air out and refill it. That's what I did and my TPMS light went off. I tried this before having to spend money on new sensors lol.

^ Take it to the garage that gave it the "ok". THe rattles or rings could be anything. We can't do an over the net inspection. The G has rattles from all over. Sun roof, rear seats, dash, exhaust pipes, etc etc. It could be anything.
It could even be your keys or any loose change in the ash trays.
BUT I never heard of a "ringing issues". Could be tinnitus.
