depends on the tyres but its roughly 29-30 front 34-35 rear on mk1 and mk2  its marked inside the filler cap on a mk2 im sure vw put it somewhere else on the mk1's and cabs maybe in the boot or under the bonnet sure someone here will know.

29 on front, 32 on rear... been running that on my cabs for years... wheels don't wear on front or rear when I set it to these.

Not to confuse here, but mine has a sticker on the inside of the drivers door pillar and it says 29 all round for normal driving and something like 29 front and 34 rear if fully loaded, but I can't remember exactly for the second figures, I'd have to check.  :undecided:

I checked my little sticker on the door pillar and it says, 32 front and 36 rear for a full load.
