How to Check Tire Pressure on Volkswagen Fuel Tank Cap?
1 Answers
There are two units for tire pressure indicated on Volkswagen fuel tank caps: bar and kPa. For example, 200 kPa equals 2.0 bar, and the normal tire pressure should be around 2.5 bar. Some Volkswagen models also provide various recommended tire pressures based on different numbers of passengers and luggage loads in the trunk. Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground, and they are crucial for driving stability and safety. Tire pressure should neither be too high nor too low. If the pressure is too low, the tires may exhibit wave-like deformation during high-speed driving, increasing the risk of a blowout. If the pressure is too high, it reduces the contact area between the tires and the ground, negatively affecting the car's handling and driving stability. Volkswagen AG is an automobile manufacturer headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany, with brands such as Audi and Volkswagen under its umbrella. Main Volkswagen models include sports cars, compact family cars, the EOS coupe, Golf, Bora, Sagitar, and Jetta.
