TYre Pressure

Post by Les.catchpole »

Is it correct that tyre pressure for 18" is 36psi front and 42psi rear for 234/40 R18 tyres

Welcome Les

You will find the correct tyre pressures for the car in the handbook & also in the petrol cap

I think both set of pressures are correct, one is half load, the other is full load.

The current handbooks don't have any tyre pressures specified. They refer you to the label on the inside of the tank flap.

This photo is a 1.4TSi, I think the 2.0ltr variants are the same.
