  1. Thanks very much indeed for that. I have emailed Audi customer service and they advised me to contact an Audi dealer. Have done that, but you have beaten them to it with your reply!
  2. Many thanks for your reply, will email Audi customer services and post what their reply is.
  3. Does nobody actually know anything about this label,is there anywhere else I can look to find out please?
  4. Hi there Audi owners hope you are all staying safe & warm! Recently bought an Audi A3 and I wonder if there is anyone out there, that can tell me how or where to find what the information is on the attached label and what it actually means? Many thanks.
  5. Sent Audi customer services an email and got an informative telephone call this afternoon. The upshot of it all is that with a light load in my car e.g. 1 driver & 1 passenger, tyre pressures recommended can be: - 38psi front & 35psi rear. Thanks to all who have contributed.
  6. Got my reply from Continental Tyres today:- Thank you for getting in contact and I fully understand your concern. The tyres inflation pressures are set by the vehicle manufacturer and not by ourselves I'm afraid. They have conducted extensive testing to equate the best inflation pressures for maximum handling, performance and safety of the specific vehicle. The maximum psi written on the side of the tyre is for the Northern American market only. If you are still in any doubt I would advise speaking with the vehicle manufacturer who will be able to guide you further. I hope this helps. Best Regards Tomasz Wojciechowski Product Support Engineer Looks like another e-mail to Audi to me?
  7. Yes, I have tried to download the label picture but something is stopping me to clarify the problem.
  8. Its on the drivers door.
  9. Just noticed on the sticker/label on my car about tyre pressures, for 225/40 R18 92Y XL it shows 3 people and a book symbol with 2.6 bar/38psi front and 2.4 bar/35psi rear. Might try these pressures until Continental reply to my question?
  10. Have sent a message to Continental Tyres today and I am awaiting their reply. Thanks for your help Magnet!
  11. Have inflated my tyres to 42psi front and 39psi rear as per information on my car. The ride seems harder and I have noticed the various holes etc in the roads a lot more. Anybody driving around with these tyre pressures got any other comments please?
  12. My wheels are 18" so your information doesn't cover my car. Thanks anyway.
  13. Looks like time to increase my tyre pressures as per the label on my car. Dont know if they are run flat though? Thanks for your help.
  14. Yes my tyres are XL extra load and on the label on drivers door it states 225/40 R18 92Y XL. Front pressure 2.9 bar - 42 psi and rear pressure 2.7 bar - 39 psi for normal load. It seems quite high? Does anyone know for sure please?
  15. Its not a Quattro and the tyres are 225/40R18 92Y. I have put them at 35psi front and 32psi rear and they seem alright. The tyres are all the same make Continental.
  16. I have just purchased an Audi A3 8V 2.0 ltr Turbo S Line 2015. The tyres on it are 225/40 R 18 92Y. The recomended tyre pressures on the vehicle label state: 2.9 bar/42 psi front and 2.7 bar/39 psi rear, these pressures seem a little high, can anyone help?
  17. Hi Trevor, Many thanks for letting me join. Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to everyone.
  18. Hi there to all fellow Audi owners, just sold my Q3 and bought an Audi A3 S line 2.0 ltr Diesel (184bhp) 2015. Because I wanted a bit more power, I am not disappointed! Lancsline
