What year/model is your car?
On 2003/04 cars, you see left and right front readings, and toggle to left and right rear readings.

The tire pressure indicator shows tire pressure
(0 - 51 psi) of all wheels (except the spare tire)
by sending a signal from a sensor that is installed
in each wheel. Press the trip computer setting
switch B to change the display to F (front) or R
(rear).
doesn't specify which side

let 5psi out of your driver front tire, and see which reading on the gauge drops?

then again, the manual does state you shold not rely on the TPMS as a actual reading of your PSI. this means you will still need to actually use a tire pressure gauge and manually check the tires.
