Our 1.6 has the factory option 15 " alloys - the sticker in the door calls for 2.5 bar, which is 37 psi (nearly).

Is this the same as everbody else ? as it seems high and I remember reading about this sometime ago on the forum but can't find it.

Thanks

Antoni,

Yep, that's the same pressure as is displayed on the door panel on my 1.6 cc, I have the 15" alloys too. It does seem a little on the high side pressure wise, particularly as the ride is quite hard anyway. Rob suggests lowering it to around 32 psi (from memory - I'm sure he'll correct me if I'm wrong) but I've gotten used to the Peugeot recommended settings now.
Some of the back roads around Stratford-Upon-Avon are threatening to shake my fillings out though ;)

Justin.
