I just did a forum search for this topic with "Tire Pressure" in the title. There are more than two dozen threads on this topic, three of them with 35 posts or more.

This thread has a long way to go to exceed the record (46 posts).

Are those cold temperatures? , or hot ?

I rarely get 40+ when hot. I honestly do not like it, but I appreciate it is an individual preference.

Separately, about a week ago I start driving, and out of the blue, I get a pressure warning message because 3 out of 4 were 33psi. No leaks, just ambient temperature too low for Florida I guess. Filled them up to 35/36, and now I get @39/40 hot on normal days.

Ah, forgot to mention these were hot temps. 35/40 when cold.

It does surprise me that all these cars have vastly different stickers on the gas door, I do inflate the rear some when hauling two people in the back and a trunk of luggage, but I find normally that more than 36 psi cold in the back makes the back end "bouncey" when empty.

I guess my bum-meter is not sensitive enough to notice...

Thanks. I try...

There's a thread on W213 where I take some to task for being too lazy to bother changing key fob batteries by themselves. So I appreciate any friendly feedback.

Sorry for veering off the line of this tyre thread but you will make me check out the W213 Forum as well

Yes, I don't much care for the 213 either, the four cylinder turbo is disappointing and loud. the E-85 sticker did get me different seals and the E550 gas tank though.
