QUOTE(kadajawi @ Nov 30 2011, 08:04 PM) How high was the FC before you pump up the tyre? What pressure did you have before and now? before i pumped in,the tyre pressure was averaging about 130-140kpa..and that time rm40 can last for about 370km..i always follow the sticker..never try more or less than that..ohw, yeah another thing i forgot to mention, the good fc that i achieve also because that time my engine oil was quiet low..They say you should pump up with cold tyres... very funny, how can they be cold here? Or is that valid anywhere, i.e. when it's "cold" here that's when you should pump up? (Cold means you haven't driven for a long time before checking the pressure, for example less than 10 km). Some say 3 bar for safety reasons, but the sticker on the car usually says less than that (my Xsara about 2.3 and I think the same in the back, for the Kangoo it's 2.6 and 2.9). Others say 0.2 more than the sticker says. What's best for your car? If the pressure is too low it will ruin handling (dangerous), FC is high and it might also ruin the tyre.
