Remember to apply the WSF (Wife Scaling Factor) when indicating costs involved (I average around 0.4 for WSF) and be confident when talking about cash expenditure to avoid raising suspicions I suspect that a "holiday" might get a casual mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can of course note that the benefit of this type of holiday is the sense of freedom you don't get with other holidays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.I.T.T. Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Seeing as tyre pressures were mentioned earlier by @edc, is it advised to run factory pressures (2.5 bar rear and 2.0 front) or are there any other trains of thought? I'm running 18" factory fit wheels with 265 35 and 225 40 rubber. Uniroyal Rainsport 3 all round, so the tyre walls do flex a little (according to the Internet. I'm no driving god...)

There should be a sticker somewhere that says the psi, i know on mine it says 29 front, 36 rear. I have mine slightly more than that as i prefer the feel of it so they're at 32 front and 38 rear, feels more stable round the corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulQ Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 You can run what you like within reason. I tend to run the fronts closer to the rears, but I have a near square tyre set up with 225 f/235 r on 17“ wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardjjs Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 My local Geru always says start at the cheapest part first If its an engine problem check the fuse box then work up. Often your "Specialst" will start and blame the most expensive part Yes check the TYre Presurres (And the Tyres) then get it checked New MOT is often a god idea as its chaep!
