Jetta Tyre Pressure?

[rory]

Hi all
My new secondhand 2015 Jetta 103TDI with 225/45/17 tyres has tyre pressure placarded at 2.8 bars front/3.0 bars rear
(40.5 and
43.5 psi approx.)
Anyone with similar vehicle care to comment as to what they've come up with as a good tyre pressure to use?
Thanks in anticipation :smile:

38psi should be fine front and rear.

Thanks opel
My first check if tyre pressure showed it had 32 psi all round when I picked it up from the dealer-therefore my concern .
trying 38 all round now :smile:

I checked with the dealer when I picked mine up and he suggested 36 all round.

I've now done 17000 Kms and the wear is fairly even, ride ok, and traction ok. I see no reason to change, although I do go 38 front/ 40 rear for a trip.
