Dude...shut the hell up, because you seem like more of a whiner than Alfred
ever will.

He is just talking here, and thats what this goddamn newsgroup is for.

So, killfile him if you don't like it, otherwise every complaint you have is
your own goddamn fault for reading it in the first place.

Besides...it gives us something to read, and God knows you sure as sh.t 
aren't starting any interesting threads.

"alfred" is a worrier and likes to be the victim of mystery.  you
insisting on injecting science into this thread ruins his ability to
wildly speculate.

some great alfredian contributions to date:

* is the honda fit reliable?  [i think that's my favorite!]

* can you get aftermarket hid headlights?  [er, think so...]

* xm radio is "fm modulated".  [no, it's digital...]

<snip a bunch of questions about cars he doesn't own.>

* unrepeatable anal violation/murder fantasy [anti-theft systems thread].

* synthetic oil, ["mobile 1" no less], might or might not get used in
his engine in the future.  [stay tuned in for the thrilling updates folk!]

* maybe brakes can be damaged by using them!!!

* you can't run low octane gas at high compression ratio!  [except that
honda figured out how to do it.]

* tire pressure monitoring systems sometimes work as advertised
[pressure drops in low temperatures apparently].

* and so on.

bottom line, he ought to get rid of his accord and go back to the '72
buick.  that way he can keep worrying about reliability, design,
performance, etc., and bug the g.m. guys instead.  i'm sure they'll be a
lot more indulgent since they're all in the same emotional hand basket.

Doesn't have anything to do with Honda and it's not all that weird, it's
plain old physics...when it gets cold, tire pressure goes down. If it's
just barely above the TPMS threshold anyway, when it gets cold it'll
drop below it and the low pressure indicator will come on. Driving for a
while or when it warms up, the pressure will go up above the threshold
and the light goes out. Check the tire pressure when cold & bring it up
to spec.

Hello folks,

I have a relative who also has a 2008 Accord sedan, auto, except hers is a
LX-P with the 16" wheels instead of the 17" on mine. The same thing happened
with her TPMS light going on and off due to cold. It must be a cold issue
for that model. When the outside temp drops to 25F or lower the TPMS will
stay on and remain on even on the highway until the outside temp goes to at
least 30F and after at least a few hours.

Apparently its not a sensor problem or a tire problem its just a Honda fluke
with that model and with a certain degree of coldness...weird!
