I've just bought a second hand VW Golf TSI. Great car.
The fuel flap shows the following tyre pressures in bar (1bar = 14.5psi):
bar psi
| Load | Front | Rear | Front | Rear |
| ---------- | ----- | ---- | ----- | ---- |
| 2 +luggage | 2.0 | 2.0 | 29 | 29 |
| 5 +luggage | 2.3 | 2.8 | 33.4 | 40.6 |
I have never had a vehicle where the fully loaded pressures are so much higher than the light-load pressures.
Typical journeys for me are evenly divided between just me and me plus three other adults.
I can't realistically inflate and deflate my tyres for almost every journey. So, where to set them?
