What is the standard tire pressure for the Lavida car?
2 Answers
The normal tire pressure for the Volkswagen Lavida is 2.3-2.5bar. More information about the tire pressure of the Volkswagen Lavida is as follows: 1. Both over-inflation and under-inflation can shorten the lifespan of the tires. Under-inflation increases tire deformation, leading to sidewall cracks, excessive heat, rubber aging, increased tire contact area, and accelerated shoulder wear. Over-inflation causes excessive stretching of the tire cords, reduces tire elasticity, and increases the load on the car while driving. 2. There is no fixed standard value for tire pressure. Seasonally, in summer, the normal tire pressure is generally between 2.2-2.5bar, while in winter, it is advisable to increase the standard tire pressure by about 0.2bar.
I've been driving my Lavida for five years, and as an experienced owner, the standard tire pressure is generally between 2.2 and 2.5 bar. For daily city driving with no load, I inflate both front and rear tires to 2.3 bar, which ensures a comfortable ride and good fuel efficiency. However, before long trips in summer, I deliberately reduce the pressure to 2.2 bar because tires tend to expand in hot weather. If the trunk is fully loaded with holiday goods, the rear tires need to be inflated to 2.5 bar; otherwise, the car's rear end feels like it's sagging. Always remember to check the tire pressure when the car is cold—data taken right after a high-speed drive is inaccurate, as the tires will be too hot to touch.
