    It's top recommendation is the Dr Air Dial Tyre Gauge 10-75psi TG3 which you can get from Autobarn for $13 or do.
    Thanks OZROD - I would've paid up to $100 if it was decent and last me a lifetime (or at least as long as cars have air in their tyres).
    I remember my Grandfather had a pen shaped one that was mechanical - nifty.

    I thought the electronic ones aren't bad at servos, where you dial the PSI you want and it inflates accordingly

    What is actually the recommended pressure that VW recommend?

    I had to get a new Tyre because of a stupid nail (and couldn't be fixed) . Then i went to BP and saw that all my tyres were at 40 psi? I kind of think that's too high?

    35 psi sounds like the correct pressure?

    What tyre pressure are people using for their Tiguan highline (none R) with 235/55 R18V Tyers?

    I did a check and the dealers had them all the way up to 41PSI. Might explain the harsh ride quality.

    For now I've lowered to 34psi

    Thoughts?

    Personally I'm comfortable with 38psi.

    What pressure are people using for their R lines (on the 255/40 R20 tyres)?

    Like some others above, I was also surprised to find the stock setting on my tyres was at 41 psi.

    I’ve been running mine at 40 psi for about a year now, no problems.

    What does it say inside the fuel flap?

    Do you feel 41psi is too high or too low?
