When I air down to 22psi the tyre pressure warning light comes on. Can the low pressure thresh hold be changed from within forscan?

Fairly sure you can, I think it is set @ 30

Does PX2 have a TPMS RESET option on the cluster display?. PX3 does, and makes the tyre pressure warning error go away, but not sure what becomes the new 'low pressure' point.

The PX2 reset is the same as the PX3.
It resets to the default pressure, it doesn't actually change anything

Thanks guys, often run around 22 on corrugated outback roads, so would be great if the thresh hold could be set to something like 18, so I still get a warning when traveling on this type of road.

I suggest you send a PM to Stewart (SAEB) and arrange a time to go to his place.
He can do any mods you want at the one time.
He is away at the moment so a reply might take some time.
If you drive an Auto consider getting Remote start, it's great.

Try changing the placard to a lower number. I have not tested to see if this affects this warning or not as I prefer to leave the light showing to remind me to air up again. Clear it and yes it will continue to come up every 10km, leave it and only the light will stay on.
