VOLVO XC70 Tyre Pressures



Decided to check the tyre pressures today -

from the gauge, they were set at 34psi or just below.

The manual isn't that specific about the size/tyres and pressures. However it suggests a higher pressure for "economical" driving.. well who doesn't want that? It didn't mention the disadvantages..

Anyway, put 36psi into each corner.

I will be having my first longer journey tomorrow - 250miles round trip. So we can see what the fuel consumption has improved and if the noise from the tyres is less.
