I have a TST TPMS w/ 10 sensors and the never read the same as the tire actual Tire pressure gage. That's OK as long as they always read about the same when tires are cool in the AM. I have one tire extender that causes a loss of about 1psi a month. Very aggravating to have to deal w/ this problem. I just recently bought new tires and that tire was flat the next day in storage. This is my 2nd TPMS system. I'm very frustrated w/ TPMS systems & am considering to eliminate it altogether.
I recommend you keep the TPMS. Buy a new tire extender!
Someday you may pickup one of these.

And as in my case the TPMS notified me of the problem with time to pull off the highway in a safe place to investigate the problem.
I am also sure if I had continued on for 300 miles to my next overnight stop I probably would have had a catastrophic tire failure with possible great damage to the trailer as the tire was under a slide out.
