I expect this is covered elsewhere but to save me looking it up...

The book says 33F/39R and the label on the car says 34F/40R

Which is generally recommended? scratchchin

Mine has TPMS (I thought all Turbos did?), so just set according to the computer....not sure what that is, think 2.5/2.7 bar ?

I've jusst followed whats on the door sticker which seems to make the TPMS very happy. You can even change the calibration of the TPMS into lbs and it will tell you whether you are anywhere near. Seems fairly accurate as it shows changes in temp when you really work the tyres hard smile
