    There is a sticker under the fuel filler door showing recommended pressures for your car. It is however, in kilopascals and Atmospheres. Works out at 33psi all round on the old scale if my memory servers me correctly. If the car is heavily loaded it recommends more.

    Pirelli may well have a recommendation for the tyre pressure as well - check the side wall markings.

    I'd generally go a few PSI above the recommendation too - better handling, fuel economy and tyre wear that way.
    Nothing to see here...

    Here is a shot of my fuel flap.



    I added the capacity & PSI stickers. (Annoying that VW put their stickers on all wonky but I digress.)

    In is interesting that recommended inflation pressure is the same for all three tyre sizes. 33PSI. The higher pressures are for when you have 5 in the car. I am happy to run at the recommended pressures.
