- Years of Caravan, now got our new Malibu PVC
Having changed from the Michelin Agilis CP tyres to Continental Vancontact4season tyres I am delighted with the improvement in ride and grip using the lower pressures emailed to me by Continental for my axle weights (47psi or 3,25 bar) on a lightly loaded 6 month old PVC.
I am experimenting with pressures and am currently at 50psi or 3,5 bar to give a little margin for error, but of course the TPMS warning light is on, the display showing the correct 3.5 bar.
In order to get rid of the annoying light I would have to go up to about 4.4 bar with the harshness and lower grip that entails. I have asked a Fiat Professional dealer if they would adjust the target pressure at my expense and although they were willing to do this and said it was a common request, they said that it was not possible as their diagnostic gizmo couldn't access the settings. Has anyone found a way round this?
