What are the correct tyre pressure values for a Citroen C4?
I have just bought a 2007 Citroen C4 Picasso and cna't work out the correct tyre pressures. It says on the door panel different pressures for this model from 3.4 bar downwards, but it's in French and I cannot understand which I should use.
My car has 215/55 tyres on 16-inch wheel and is used only with one passenger and no load in boot. At the moment the tyres are set to 2.5 bar - is this correct?

3.4 bar is for fully laden. 2.5 bar is for lightly laden, as you describe that it is. But for a long run fully laden you need to increase the pressures, particularly at the rear.
From choosing the right tyre to what to do when it goes wrong - we have the answers.

Why is my new Honda Jazz EX CVT not remotely like the car you reviewed on your website? The ride in the back is atrocious.
I live in a country village and my nearest service station is about 15 minutes drive away. I find it almost impossible to check my tyre pressure when the tyres are cold (which is what I have been recommended)....
