TYRE COMPRESSOR

Featured Replies

Just thought I would check the pressure of the tyres and try out the compressor supplied by Skoda. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the gauge is illuminated and that the pipe has a screw fitting. However the accuracy of the gauge is way out. I checked it against two other gauges and it is out by 2 bar. Anyone else found this "problem"? I have 19inch wheels and have set them to 2.6 bar. What do you find  is the pressure for the most comfortable ride?

225/55r17

 

i used to 2.5 in front and 2.4 in rear,
but after have installed Direct TMPS

decided increase to 2.7/2.5 because on colder(12°c) mornings that are equal to 2.3/2.2
but after few hours on hot highway(air >30°c; track >40°c; speed >130kmh) pressure increased to 2.9/.2.7

 

interesting, engine is boiling front right tire when in static,
have got 3.2 and  60°c after three hours waiting on Serbian Hungarian border(1km3h; air 33°c; Sun from the left side)

while other three wheels were 2.8/2.6 and 42°c.

this dangerous situation can't be warned by built in Indirect TMPS
