Yes you have done the right thing. You may even notice the steering is lighter now, even if the ride is a little firmer.

Hi all, Took the plunge yesterday and bagged myself my first a6 🥰 2012, 112k full history from Audi specialist's, genuine clutch and flywheel fitted 15k ago and DSG overhaul 6k ago. Not the best pictures as I haven't stopped driving it since collecting yesterday... Can't believe how smooth and progressive it is, am in love at the moment!! Just not sure if the black wheels are right or if I should go to a set of silver Rotas 🤷‍♂️

Many thanks Gareth, I will try to speak to Febi Technical as well. I have really appreciated all the advise from this forum. Simon.

Thank you all appreciate it

You most certainly have done the right thing Lisa. Tyre pressures should always be set to the manufacturer’s specification. OK, pessimistic:- you will now suffer from harsher ride characteristics associated with large diameter wheels and ultra low tyre profiles. Tyre profiles as low as 35 usually dictate XL tyres, which are less flexible, and exaggerate that harsher ride. ‘Recently purchased….’ probably hold the clue why the tyre pressures at hand over were lower than recommended - the seller has attempted to improve ride quality for demonstration and sales advantage. Anyway, you have now done the right thing and corrected the pressures. Please let us know how you get on with it in the short term. Kind regards, Gareth.
