Default TPMS light

Hey guys,
I just got my 09 370Z last week and filled the tires with Nitrogen and my TPMS light has come on twice since. Do I need to get the sensors checked or just check the pressure myself? Is this a normal thing for the Z? Thanks for your help guys

Well what's the pressure at? Have you read the owners manual, it explains the system and it's function, as well as the others in the car pretty well. But anyway the tire pressure is probably just low.

If that's not it we're going to need more information to solve the problem. Or you could just bring it to the dealer, it should certainly still be under warranty right? Or bring it back wherever you just had the tires filled and have them checked

the front left and back right tires are low. They are at 29-30 PSI and the other two are at 34.5 PSI. Its just wierd when I had them refilled up earlier this week and they are low again. Its still under the warranty and I was thinking about going to the dealer to get it checked.

Did you just get new tires or change anything that would be contributing to them leaking? Or maybe you just have a legitimate leak, spray soapy water all around the bead, valve stem, etc. If you see bubbles you found your leak, don't forget the insides of the wheels. I assume there are no signs of physical damage, bent wheels, bubbles in tire tires, a nail or something in the tread? (you would be surprised how easy it is to overlook this)
