Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just wondering what tyre pressures most people are running on 18" rims. I've only had my 996 C2 cabriolet for a few months, tyre pressures were a bit low so set them at 36F - 44R as per the manual but since doing so the front feels a little more floaty, if that makes sense. Am wondering if I'm better off lowering the pressures slightly?

POST 2Original post

Hi mate I always try to stick to manifacture spec till I understand the car and work from there.

POST 3Original post

Hi Prodigy I have the same car as you and run the recommended pressures. Purchase a good tyre pressure gauge to check the pressures yourself don't rely on the servo. The rear tyre pressure of 44 needs to be checked consistently to maintain the pressure.

POST 4Original post

Tyre pressure gauges are themselves a significant variable. Choice mag did a review and found some notable variations. One of the cheapest was the most accurate.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks guys, i have 2 pressure gauges and have my own pump at home so thankfully no need to rely on the servo for tyres.
