I just bought an '06 TL and am having the same issue. The warning light and message keeps coming on and I've checked the tire pressures as the dealer told me and it still comes back after a few miles of driving. I really don't want to take it to the dealer but maybe that's the only answer.

PS: What's with all the "www.google-____" text that keeps getting added to the posts?</>&lt; src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" =text/&gt; </>&lt; =text/&gt; _uacct = "UA-939292-41"; urchinTracker(); </>

One of your transmitters are not working, when you start your car, check the tire pressure readings on the display before you get the Error message. One of the readings should be 58 PSI - the default. Which ever tire is reading 58, the sensor in the wheel is bad, or th iniatiator behind the wheel well is bad.

i had a Corvette with a constant tpms light come to find out these was another corvette with a low tire driving close to me EVERY day when i drove to work.

i know acuras are much better than a vette but is there a chance there is a sender in the spare or on another vehicle that is upsetting this?

P.S. never use fix-a-flat with tire pressure systems. it will gum it up and you will need a new sender

If your under 50k miles your car is still under warranty. Schedule an appointment with your local dealer and have them check it out.

What pressures are you setting them to? What does your TPMS say that your pressures are... how do they compare to actual readings. Does it say that 2 tires have a significant difference from each other? This can also set it off.
