"Maintenance Light"

My maintenance light for my tires keeps coming on. I checked the tire pressure and the wheels, everything is fine. So whats up?
(I know I have to take it in to the dealer) but has this happened to anyone else?

I have the stock 19" (G37S), the only thing I did was lower the car.

I bit, not much, last week was in the low 50s and now its in the low 70s.
I thought maybe I had a slow leak, but my tire pressure is still the same.

Dumb question....but someone asked the same question on another board and was talking about something different. Are you talking about the (!) symbol coming on, or are you talking about the tire maintenance reminder on the instrument cluster?

Thought that might be what you meant. It's just a reminder to get your tires rotated. You can clear it out so it won't keep coming on.

if you have the 18" non sport wheels they are all the same on all 4 corners and can be rotated. 19" spot is stagered and cannt only be swapped from side to side be taking off rim and remounting
