What is the standard tire pressure for the Boyue?

[MollyFitz]

The normal tire pressure range for the Boyue is 2.4-2.5bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2bar in winter and reduced by 0.1bar in summer. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements. The Boyue's tire pressure monitoring system is indirect, utilizing the vehicle's ABS balance control, and only displays low pressure when there is a leak. To check the tire pressure, first prepare a tire pressure gauge, locate the factory tire pressure label, press the gauge onto the tire valve to measure and read the value, and remember to replace the valve cap after checking. Generally, a tire pressure above 2.8bar is considered too high, and below 2.0bar is too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; overextends the tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increases friction coefficient with the road surface, raising fuel consumption; makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, compromising driving safety; increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; reduces the functionality of cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the bead area and causing abnormal wear; multiplies friction with the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength. High-speed driving may lead to tire blowouts. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator lights up (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no stamp on top, four small spikes below, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually alarms when below 1.8bar or above 3.0bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are needed. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the system still records the previous data, causing the indicator to light up. Simply perform a tire pressure reset. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The sensor, installed inside the tire and connected to the inflation valve, monitors tire pressure. If damaged during driving, it can trigger the tire pressure warning light. For sensor damage, replacement with a new part is the only solution.

When I first started driving the Boyue, I noticed a small label on the door frame of the driver's seat, indicating the standard tire pressure was 230 kPa or 33 psi, roughly equivalent to 2.3 bar. Remembering this number made driving much more comfortable, avoiding the previous issues of excessive bumpiness or sudden spikes in fuel consumption. Later, I developed a habit of checking the tire pressure with a gauge every time I washed the car, stopping inflation once it reached 230 kPa to prevent misalignment. In summer, when heat causes the pressure to rise easily, I slightly release some air to 220 kPa; in winter, due to cold contraction, I inflate it to 235 kPa to maintain the original value. Tire experts always say that stable tire pressure extends tire life, and after two years, my tires still look brand new, saving me money on replacements. The principle is simple: follow the label for safety and peace of mind, and avoid unnecessary tinkering.

Having driven for over a decade, I've had my share of tire pressure troubles. Once, the pressure was so low that the car drifted and couldn't brake properly, nearly causing a collision. Since then, I've stuck to the recommended tire pressure for my Geely Boyue, which is between 230-240 kPa, as indicated on the label inside the door. Don't underestimate these numbers—they determine handling and fuel efficiency. Low pressure increases rolling resistance and fuel consumption, while high pressure reduces cushioning and raises the risk of a blowout. Now, I check the tire pressure weekly with a digital gauge, inflating to 235 kPa for optimal stability. When carrying heavy loads, I adjust slightly to 245 kPa to ensure the safety of my family. Remember, tire pressure isn't just a number—it's the foundation of safe driving. Neglecting it can have serious consequences, so make sure to check it regularly.

My Geely Boyue is used for daily child pick-up, and I insist on setting the tire pressure at 230 kPa. When carrying more passengers, I increase it slightly to 240; in winter, I set it at 235 due to cold contraction, and in summer, I keep it below 225 to account for thermal expansion. Maintaining standard values avoids uneven wear and extends tire life. I use a simple tire pressure gauge to check weekly, which is convenient and practical.
