Yep....32(F)...and 34(R) seems to suit my car best.

Having said that I have no idea how accurate my foot pump is. :)

I tend to agree. The new one shows about 6 PSI difference to the old. But which is correct?

Perhaps I should ask the professional knuckledraggers at Quik Fit.  :-X :-X ;)

I use the one that came with my bottle of glue for tyre repairs. I poured the glue down the drain of a neighbour I don't like.

I have one that you plug in the fag lighter. The idea is that it pumps up the tyres without giving me a heart attack. Quite frankly it's useless. It's slow, cumbersome, and as noisy as f*ck. Worse still, by the time I've managed to 'pull it off' I've lost about 20 PSI.

It's almost impossible to get a steady reading and I doubt being 'digital' makes it any more accurate than my trusty footpump(s).

I'm taking the sack of shit back to Homebase for a full refund. ;D

Yes....you can't miss them. They are located between the lawnmowers and paint.

They take up a considerable amount of floor space. :)

I'd have gone for the lawnmower. Faster and more reliable.

I've had a good look and I can't seem to find any threads where I mention a problem with my car. You, on the other hand, appear to have problems with everything you touch.
Omegas, mercs, gazebos...... ;D
