I just had my Aurion ATX for 2 weeks. The ride seems to be a bit hard. After reaching home from work, about 12 kms, I measured the tyre pressure and it was 40psi. Is this the correct pressure?

If you open your door on the sides, there's a recommended tyre pressure. 40 does seem a bit too high. It's a matter of choice. Some people go follow the recommended, while the others go with the pressure they're comfy with

If you have alloys with skinny rubber, then you would pretty much be running them on higher pressures.

If you have standard wheels on standard factory rims, you should aim for between 32 - 36 PSI. This will provide a good balance between tyre wear/loading and comfort.

40 PSI will give you a very bouncy harsh ride.... You'll feel every bump, groove and imperfection on the road! :)

Thanks VF-X and Beep Beep. I will reduce the pressure to around 35psi.

I have done lots of trials with pressure for the Aurion and i found it best for me at 38psi front and 34psi back.

Yep. I'm running 38 at the fronts as well. I found this to be perfect. But this would differ with the sportivo versions. Since the non sportivo aurions don't have sports suspension and is softer. I think a higher PSI feels good. But if I had the stiffer sports suspension. I would do about 36-35 fronts.

Tyre pressure is really a bit of personal thing and everybody has a different opinion on it, also other things like your suspension tune, comfort (At-X, Prodigy & Presara) or Sports (Sportivo & TRD) and the size of your wheels can also affect how much air you choose to have in them. Most owners agree that somewhere around 35-38 Psi of pressure is the most ideal amount of air to be running.

I forgot to mention that the tyre pressures described above are COLD pressures. Add approx 2 PSI to the above range if your tyres have warmed up. Small, but important detail! Heh heh.....:whistling:

What psi should the factory wheels be???

There's a tyre placement card on the driver door seal. It says 32psi but i find that too low. I use 40psi/36psi front/back on the stock 16".

Yeah I was thinking bout 34-36 on the sportivo

i use 38 all round, which i'm happy with.

When i bought mine the tyre pressure was 30psi all round. Ive got it now on 38psi. The ride is a little bit bumpier but the wear on the tyres is drastically reduced by having the slightly higher pressure

Car dealerships pump the tyres up on all their cars as they sit around for a while which can deform the tyre (makes the tyre have a flat spot) So they pump them up to prevent this from happening. The Aurion should have about 33psi.

The ideal tire pressure can also vary between different tires. Typically I found that on the 17 inch tires of the Sportivo, 35-38 PSI seemed to be the ideal range for most types of tires you would come across.

Also, bear in mind that the figure printed on the tire placard tend to err more on the minimum recommended value side of things.

How about 20" Falken FK452....any idea what pressure they would be good at?

At least 36 PSI. You don't want low profile tires lower than that as this can lead to blisters forming on the sidewall. Ideally around 38 PSI is a good number.

Hey Mste,

im running FK452 on my car too and i tend to have them around the 36psi mark. But have also run them as high as 40psi a few times and that has been more then fine.

I run 39psi, I come from a Supra with aftermarket shocks so compared to that no amount of tyre pressure is going to feel bumpy :P

A lot of people say how higher pressures have a good effect on fuel economy but I'm guessing that won't make too much of a difference once you get up around the 38psi mark?

I was a bit surprised though as the shop that put on my new tyres told me to run them between 40 and 42psi, knowing full well the wheels and tyres in question (standard Sportivo rims & 225R17 Yoko SDrive), then jump on here and nobody seems to be running much more than 38.

36psi is about the norm for sedans at the size of the Aurion with a reasonably tall sidewall tyre. 40-42psi is too high and it will wear the centres.

Unless you're carrying a full load I.e. 4 passengers + luggage on a trip somewhere.

Actually the more travelling you do in one hit increases tyre heat and pressures, so there is no need to increase pressures.

      Does any one know if the trd sportivo suspension for the 2017 facelift corolla fielder fits the 2013 prefacelift version? Is the chassis the same? Thanks for the help.

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.

      Camry Touring 2010 A/C Issues.

      Hi Guys, My Camry 2010 Touring just had a regas done on it and the next day for some reason it wasn't blowing cold air but the next day it is and now working with nice cold air BUT every now and then we can hear and feel a buzz for a few secounds and today while my sister took my car I could her like a mild knocking sound when stopped but goes away when driving off. Any idea what this could be and the A/C is always working now for now.
