Tyre pressures
The tyre pressures are also displayed
on the driver's door post (visible with
the driver's door open).
Checking tyre pressures
All tyre pressures in the tables on the
following pages are shown in the most
common units of measurement bar
(kPa/psi) for tyres at ambient tempera-
ture.
When towing a trailer, always use the
values for the higher load.

Check tyre pressures regularly (at
least every two weeks and before
starting a long journey). Incorrect tyre
pressures can adversely affect the car's
roadholding and cause tyre damage,
which could result in an accident.
Remember to check the spare wheel
tyre pressure as well. The highest pres-
sure needed for any of your car's tyres
should be used as the pressure for the
spare wheel.

Make sure that only approved
tyres are fitted
These tyre pressures apply to sizes and
makes of tyre approved by BMW and
known to BMW Service. If other makes
of tyre are fitted to the car, higher tyre
pressures may be needed.
