TPMS issues, '05 CL55

My TPMS system has started to give me regular warnings over the last month. The FR tire pressure reads a few lbs hi (35-36) when the car is resting, then drops to 32-33 (the true pressure) after rolling down the road for a minute or so.

I have purchased new valve stems in thinking the issue is related to the seal, but I really haven't a clue except it would seem the problem is not a faulty sensor. FWIW I have Lorinsor LM5 wheels.

Anyone have a clue what's going on here?

thanks!

Luke-
I do not know. However I plan to have the wheels serviced next week, to fix a curb ding, so I can check.... assuming I know what to ask.

can you tell me what to ask the technician doing the work?

thx
