Hope it's better than on my mazda6. Only ever went off on motorway, which is annoying as I aint checking 4 tyres on a hard shoulder, leave at next exit to find all ok. Turns out mazda's dont like anything but Bridgestone on their rims, wrongly replaced by repair centre when smart city braking malfunctioned locking wheels at 30mph on a bend 😣.
Hasn't happened to me yet but looking that the TMPS setting/diagram in the console it has a green "light" against each wheel. I presume if one tyre has low pressure the associated green light with that tyre will turn to another colour.
Thanks Boomer, long wait until Feb for me to find out 😣
Waiting: Momentum Pro D3 Amazon Blue, due 7th Feb 19

I unfortunately had a nice big nail through my tyre sidewall, caused a slow puncture and I can confirm that the system identified correctly which wheel it was!
It was painful buying a new tyre already :(
