Noticed both left front and rear tire pressure warning light illuminate on
my 05 Pilot.  During routine oil change, dealer said just needed air.

Days later it's on again despite normal pressures on both tires.  Seems odd
that both front and rear indicator light would come on at same time.  Ain/t
a pressure problem in my opinion.

Ideas?  If anyone knows of a Pilot specific site pls advise
thx

check for uneven tire wear.  tires need to be same brand, type and
rotated to ensure even wear.  iirc, the "low pressure" warning is wheel
speed sensors picking up different rotation speeds of individual wheels
and assuming it's a flat.  uneven effective wheel diameters caused by
differing wear/brand/type gives the same result.

So if all the tires are low, now warning?
