I have a 2007 Tahoe and haven't had too much of a problem other than the sensors being off a couple of psi. Now they are off around 3-4 psi. There has to be something at fault with the sensor is my only thought.

fijidaniel: Might try another gauge as some aren't all that accurate.

vrso2: Not sure what u meant by "which one did I prefer". The software I have only works on OBD I. Used it when I had an '87 IROC-Z.

BTW, what sensor u talking about ???? TPMS sensors r located on your wheel. Its part of your tire air valve.

Well its really the receiver for the TPM not a sensor, older systems had the receivers near each wheel but on the newer vehicles I think its a central location, I am not certain where the receiver is located..

Its part of the remote door lock receiver... so it is centrally located and not individual receivers....
