What's the correct tyre pressures for a Skoda Octavia?
I own the latest Skoda Octavia Elegance, but am having difficulty finding out the correct front /rear tyre inflation pressures (tyres fitted 225/45R17). The handbook does not contain this information, the dealer has given me information which I think is plain wrong, and my email to Skoda UK has not been answered. Can you help?

If not on a sticker on the door pillar or inside the fuel flap (where it usually is with a Skoda), then try 32/32 and increase the rear when carrying rear passengers or a load.
