Title: Tyre Pressures
Post by: Bob G on 29 August 2011, 12:46:53

I have 225/55/16 on my 2.0L GLS, but can not find a definitive answer to the correct pressures, the manual lists by engine starting with 2.2 haynes talks a lot about 2.0L but again does not mention it as a seprate list.  So what would the team suggest?

There should be a sticker inside your fuel flap showing tyre sizes and pressures

Tried this and wouldn't trust it one iota.
Gave exactly the same pressures for both the Estate and the Saloon - and these were incorrect!!  Sums up KwikFit >:(

That will be the facelift manual.  The 2.0 engine is covered in the pre-facelift manual tyre pressure page in the FAQ section of the forum:

Looks like its the same as the 2.2 anyway - 30 all round.  :y

Strange even though the car is a facelift, still 30 all round is nice and easy 8-)

Used to have same tyre size on my old 2.2 and found 32 all round suited me best.
