Tyre pressures - C220 cdi

[david_e]

Have just had my alloys replaced under warranty and can't seem to find the tyre pressures in the handbook - they are Goodyear 195 65 R15. Any idea what they should be for normal loads?

Front - 31PSI

Rear - 33PSI

The exact figures are on the inside of the fuel flap.

What is the qulaity of ur refurbs like (that u have had under warranty?)

Aha, found em eventually. Zey are in ze inzide of ze filler kap - 30 & 33psi - Garage had set them at 39psi - must be a habit they have - over inflating everything (including the price!)

OK to be fair, look new, have not inspected inside the rims too closely but a quick finger rub feels quite smooth, they even replaced (refurbed) the rusty wheel nuts. Washed the car yesterday and the wheels have a nice wax finish on them. When I took it in the bod said waxing the wheels prevented corrosion which seems to make sense - not sure if there is a special wheel wax or just use normal car wax?

Overall happy because have only recently bought the car and there is only a few months warranty left.

Check the fuel filler cover this generally has all the tyre pressures. On my E220CDI with 245/45 17 its 2 bar all round, no difference between front and rear.
