Default correct tyre pressure for a3 2.0tdi sport - 17" wheels

Hi all

Joined this site after recently purchasing my used A3 Sport.

There's no badge inside my diesel cap or on any pillar re correct tyre pressure and the manual doesn't specify either.

Its a 2.0tdi sport - 17" alloys and is running on continental sport 225/45/r17's

Any idea on correct pressure as I know that the car manufacturers vary from the tyre manufacturer spec - at the mo I've gone for a safe 32psi all round.

Couldnt really use the pressures when bought as a guide cos they were so varied around the car from 29-36.

Cheers

Craig

I have an a3 2.0 tdi 170 SE which is running in 17" tyres and have the printout in the fuel cap. Are you running on extra or heavy load tyres?
