.... I’m going to get them to change it .
This may sound daft but I have an abs alarm as well before for this arose telling me loss tyrepressure , I have put all the pressures the same yet it will not reset and very occasional , once every 2months my needle speed differs from my digital speed ...
...12k miles and still have over 5m left, evenly worn.
I’ve just come across your post after reading thru all the many pages of the 20” tyrepressure thread.
I wonder whether Oli @BognorMotors or Steve @CRS Performance might have some sage advice for us rare nineteeners?
Thanking you in...
I wanted to get the optimum pressure in the tyres on my golf. It had the usual sticker with a range depending on load etc. I emailed Michelin (as I had their tyres on it) and asked for their advice based on my usual load and the wheel size. They came back within a few days with a lovely email...
...have known new tyres have a slightly convex or concave tread caused by poor storage or manufacturing defect, which can replicate uneven tyrepressure causing a pull. If that happens you can get a replacement tyre under warranty. The alignment is done in a static mode so if there is any slight...
Yes, I'm aware of the ability you have with VCP to add actual tyre sizes & associated pressures etc. It's just that in the linked thread above the OP indicates that it's possible to create an 'Individual' tyre profile to which pressures can be associated with using VCDS and I just wondered if...
Ah that'll be it - you need to go into the mfd and set tyrepressures. Simple as that. Because you've changed wheels, the sensors are seeing a different radius to what they expect so that gives an error. Same as if you had an under or over inflated tyre.
The setting is in the MFD, under the...
It’s all to do with tyre size, load rating (e.g. 103) and max pressure. In smaller sizes such as 16” to get a sufficient load rating (103) and high enough max pressure the tyre will have been made for the van market (rather than lighter cars) and will be C rated. Larger size tyres (e.g. 18”)...
I will need to read this thread in its entirety! It is interesting for me to see opinions about their off road tyres and set up! I like reading about tyres that I am familiar with and those that I am not. I am curious about the Wildpeak. I am on BFG 255/55R18 AT KO2 and looking forward to...
You mention that your rear tyre was 2 psi below. I presume then that this was determined when you visited the local garage? The reason for my asking is that I don't see any values for the pressures on my infotainment although I have ensured that the pressures are where they should be and have...
Welcome to the forum. The search function and a cup of tea will be your best friend here.
There's 30 pages of 20 inch tyre info in the thread below, much of it from respected and trusted trade members.
I don't run 20s myself but for all seasons a lot of people favour Michelin Cross Climate...
Yeah I think those pressures are way too high! Look at more like 40psi...?
Don't have much time now as just heading out the door! Do a wee search on pressures on the forum...
Also as well as tyres/pressures, what are your shocks/springs?
Thanks Ginkster. Yep - pressures been fine and correct. Standard van no adjustments apart from a slightly wider tyre than stock (235 v 215). Local driving on an and b roads and then 2 trips to the alps. The other thing that is worrying me slightly is we live on bridle track and am worrying the...
I read on a recent post on a FB page way to set pressures is as follow:
- set pressure in region you think is ok (say 45psi)
- drive an hour
- check pressures warm
- if pressure has only increased 4psi you set correctly
- if gone up more than 4psi you set too low, let tyres cool and increase...
It's unlikely to be noticeable. In reality, the load rating scale is not a linear representation of harshness. No doubt it will affect the ride and a very high rated tyre will be stiffer. However, being one or two points higher than needed won't make a difference.
If you are considering higher...
...I want to fit Michen Agilis tyres to.
Does anyone know if the 225/55 R17 109T will be ok
The tyre guide on the van shows a 235/55 R17 but I can't find an Agilis in that size.
The Agilis list a 215/60 or 235/60
If the 225's will fit ok, what tyrepressure would you recommend.
Thanks for looking
Hi I have a T6 full conversion. The wheels on it are 275/40R20.
On tyres it says MAX load 950kg and MAX pressure 50P.S.I
My question is what should my tyrepressure be ???
...picture in the central screen very similar to the door open picture however the instead it’s seems to be highlighting the area near the rear left arch/wheel. I initially thought it was a tyrepressure warning but the standard type pressure warning isn’t lit on the dash.
Does anyone have any...
Cheers @PaulR83 its nice to know its not just my setup then! I am running 255/45/18. How are you finding the 55 profile, does it make the ride any softer over the 45?
Maybe a rolling road session to check it's delivering the correct boost pressure etc.
At a guess, it could be that it isn't boosting correctly or fuelling correctly. Or a combination of the 2.
