Tyre pressures please?

[LadyUK]

Hi

Just purchased a 2005 Golf GT 2.0 TDI DSG (automatic diesel) 5 door.

Can you let me know what the front and rear tyre pressures are for when the car is not carrying a load and when it is please?

Thank you

tells you on the inside of the fuel flap, or in the handbook. i think the diesels may be different to GTI's because of the weight.

Hi,

Yes, know its on the inside of the drivers door edge but its in bars not actually telling me the pressures!

Lol, well bar is a unit of pressure, 1 bar = 14.50326 psi.
You can use this site to do the conversion for your required pressures, http://www.mykp.co.uk/PSI-to-BAR/

Most air points have bar and pressure scales on them.
