On standard gti the filler cap says 2.4 to 2.6 bar (35-38psi).   :smiley:

In this cold and very wet weather I run 36PSI on my Ed30

Tyres also make the difference, and mine are PS3's

Do you run 36psi on all four? Also do you change pressure for the summer? :happy2:

Tyre pressure just needs checking and setting regulalry. Ambient air/road temps have a massive effect on tyre pressure.  :happy2:
