Not all TPM systems have individual pressure monitors in each wheel. If you don't have this you don't get a readout for each tire/wheel.One thing I was disappointed about was the CX-5 not having a page on the instrument cluster showing individual tire pressures [each as a figure in psi]. Was useful when I had a slow flat on a rental car as could see the figure descending until it got to ~22/23 psi and then the warning coming on [showing the correct tire that was low]. May also be useful to easily see when a tire is down a few psi to prompt further investigation.
Though I don't think the rental showed the psi on the spare.
There are two types of TPM systems. The above and the type that uses the vehicles ABS system to determine if a tire has low pressure, as compared to the other tires in the system. The ABS type only knows if a tire is low by comparing the speed at which it rotates (an underinflated tire is smaller in diameter than properly inflated tire and therefor rotates faster) to the other tires and if one tire is rotating at a different rate than the others it sets an error code and this gets displayed. The system doesn't tell you which tire is low only that one, or more, is.
