If you have a GTi then I suggest you consider raising the pressure in your tyres.

^^^^ Well spotted! :happy2:
The wheel man:
With the journey i do those pressures are about right. For shorter distances a higher inital perssure is best but for long runs the pressure in my tyres will get to around 40psi which feels good to me..... might try more if thats best?!? I do run them higher in colder conditions though (IE Winter) as the temp is sometimes below zero and the pressure never gets much above 38psi due to the lower ambient temp.

1. I know you state it pretty clearly, but to clarify, is the comms using Bluetooth as Red says (2.4GHz) or RF (433MHz)?
2/3. Thanks, but I mean the resolution on the pressure sensor. I guess it must be to 0.05bar or something like that... 1PSI is an odd unit to resolve to. Either way it seems to be quite reasonable accuracy and precision, certainly more than one would need from such a device.

1, To clarify, the units transmit RF 433.92 MHz NOT Bluetooth. They have passed all major certifactitons and even have the top Jap spec one.... i think its called ARIB.
2, If by resolution you mean what will units display to, than you can choose between PSI, BAR and KPA so will display to the single KPA. You can also choose between celsius and farenheight.

....Looks like I was misinformed by the other possible supplier (still not heard from them but just sent a reminder).
neg:
Has to be a GTI - clocks are different in all non GTI models.
Surely you dont need to be looking at this all the time so the ashtray area would be ok - also better for cabling.
