Tire Pressures displayed?

Tire Pressures displayed?
I had a front rim swapped out at the dealer last night and I am getting the flashing low tire pressure alert. The manual describes what I am seeing as a TPMS monitoring problem.
I called the dealer and spoke with the service manager and she said that there was a way to display the tire pressures on screen. I can't find any way to see individual tire pressures through the trip computer or main screen.
Does anyone know if this is possible?

I read the whole manual and didn't see anything about displaying the actual tire pressures. I wish it could. If I recall the manual just says to check all the tire pressures.
P.S. I wonder if this was the same woman at my dealership that said the G35 had no computer and had nothing to do with fuel economy. You had only fuel injectors and that's it.

Sounds like the FX is the same as my QX56. Although my previous M35 could display the reading with a diagram of the car with pressure readings at all four corners. That did come in handy. I'm already missing it on my new G.

Has anyone figured out whether or not it will display the tire pressure of the tires? In the manual on page 6-2 under "Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)" it clearly (at least to me) states that it will display the tire pressure of each tire....
"The system also displays pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the display by sending a signal from a sensor that is installed in each wheel..."
Has anyone been able to see the tire pressures displayed?

Edit: Is it possible this is the problem...."This system will activate only when the vechile is driven at speeds above 16MPH"

As to tire pressure readout, I'm not sure if you guys with the navi have an individual readout of TP like on my M.....If you do, click on Information .-- scroll to Tire Pressures , it's the second choice on that page under Fuel Economy.
.......and will look like the attached thumbnail:

I didn't want to start a new thread on this...
I'm curious to know if the G35 has this same problem. I currently have an '04 VW Touareg and am thinking about trading it for an '07 G35.
This is a question I posted in the VW forum I'm a member of...

Actually... I just realized none of you will know the answer yet since the new G has only been out in the winter months. Nevermind.

My M's is fine and without issue, tho I've not driven it much in the winter, just occasionally to stretch its legs on nicer days, but the TPS seems accurate, happy and not prone to false alarms.
It might be that the Touareg's TPS is more touchy and has a smaller 'safe zone' than the Infiniti's, causing more unwanted alarms...
The "egg" is a nice machine... I have a friend who owns one (V8) and loves it.

I might have missed it on our car, but I don't think so .
