Hi folks,
I recall seeing a thread on a regular 6-forum earlier this week, and while I spent my Sunday doing winter-prep for the cars, cleaning the garage, and garden maintenance, I sucked it up and unscrewed the spare on the civic and the 6, and checked their pressures.
The Civic is a 2001, and there was only 14, FOURTEEN psi left in that good ole' sucker.
The 6 is a 2007, and there was only 42 psi in that one.
Both are supposed to be at 60psi for optimal operation.
Please DO take the 15 minutes to check/top-up/bleed to the correct pressure. (I actually bled it to 65psi to give me a bit more legroom in the future).
Safe driving! :)
