Just the low tire pressure warning.

Cold temperatures reduce the pressure, and since air leaks out of tires naturally over time, it is quite common for the change in temperature to suddenly put your tires below the threshold for normal tire pressure.

    The cold weather compresses air which reduces the pressure... there no need for a leak for this to take place.

    As soon as the day warms or the tires warm (with use) the pressure returns... it's a pain the ass and I have yet to find a proper source that explains what the proper thing to do is.

    I just top up my tires in a cold morning, and now they run 4 psi over the mark when they warm up.
