Title: Tyre Pressures
Post by: HK Phooey on 14 June 2014, 12:55

It's been a busy few weeks since I collected the Golf - I've checked the oil in that time, but only got around to checking the tyre pressures today.

I wish I'd checked earlier, the dealer had them at 4.5 bar! I'm intrigued to see how the car feels now that they're set at the correct pressure.

Indeed, it was quite a surprise when the end of the pressure gauge hit the wheel arch liner!
