New Owner...

Post by davemfox » Sat Apr 09, 2011 11:22 am

Well I've finally joined in and got myself an RS6 :D

It's already known on here as it used to belong to scooby-tc (cheers mate, had an excellent run back upto North Wales yesterday :D :D)

I have a newbie style question though - this one is running C6 20" alloys, anyone got a good feeling for tyre pressures?

He kept that quiet. I knew he was considering selling.....

Nice car you have there.

Tyre pressures, should be 40 psi

Hi Dave,glad you had a good run back,that car is awesome and was the first time i had sold a car without advertising it :biggrin3:

as for tyre pressures i think i ran 38 front and 36 rear and i did turn the tyre pressure monitors on in the menu and it never once beeped at me.Are they a bit low then?

No they aren't; I was just looking for a starting point - thanks :)

My mistake :) but I do believe that there is a shortage of the retched |devils juice !! :twisted: due the the fact Diesel has had a massive increase on demand in the last few years! http://tgr.ph/ig7eIp

Personally a few more V8's on the road cant be a bad thing and dare I say it may even give us some much needed respite on tumbling residuals!! or better still encourage by making V power £1 a litre !! :thumbs:
