Thanks! My car came back from the MB garage with the rear cold pressures much lower than the front. Thinking they knew what they were doing I left it as is. Alas this vid and the cap on the car prove otherwise. I'll be topping up first thing tomorrow!
Cheers for the comment & glad the video helped you! Yes, MB service is usually pretty good but I never assume they always get everything right! Cheers, Phil
I have a Mercedes GLA 200, 2000 Model. For 3 passengers + 3 pieces of luggage it shows 230kpa for the front, 200 for the rear. But twice per week, I help a charity with food collections so my load can vary. For 5 passengers and 5 pieces of luggage 300 for the front and 300 for the rear. Should I be looking for an average between the 2 or stick to one or the other? Also, 200kpa converts to 29psi, I don't think I ever had a car where the pressure would be so low. Tyres are Bridgestone 235/45R19. Any advice please?
Ive just noticed on your label it states if 18inch wheels then +4 psi ! Mine is the 220 cdi sport with 18s so i better check both my label and the tyres. Think i put 33 in them last time ??? Thanx again for prompting me to check on things !!🤣
No probs at all, as you say, sometimes you watch a video and it gets you thinking about these things! It might seem a minor point but as I'm sure you know, tyre pressure has a big impact on road holding and tyre wear. I imagine there are lots of people out there who never check their tyre pressures, let alone consider if they are set correctly! 🙄
Hi, honestly, there’s lots of different info on the tyre information stickers, I tried to cover it but there will be some differences. Sounds like you have found the information that you need 👍 thanks, Phil

@@ReviveMyRide checked label and tyres this morning and see my label has 30psi, but +2 if 18 wheels, so put 32 all around !
@@arnietwo11 Ok, that makes sense! So you weren't far off with the 33psi that you were putting in 👍
Thank you so much 😊
You’re welcome! Glad the video helped you! 👍
Are they air or the other?
What are you referring to? There’s air in the tyre. This car doesn’t have air suspension. Can’t think of anything else! Thanks, Phil

My sticker is Kpa, which is not helpful as pressure gauges are in PSA or bar
Yep, it's a pain, I'm not really used to working in Kpa either!
My mercedes has pressure for different profile tyres. I didn't cover this.
