Tire pressure service dealership 40psi

have had my dealership service my 4Runner. Both times pressure was set at 40 psi. When I bought car also at 40 psi.

Two pen tire checkers read out 40. I though it was 32 psi.... what am Idoing wrong.

 

Huh?

 

What's it say in the door jamb?

 

Door jam says 32. I always put at 32, but why does dealership always make it 40psi

 

I just had my tires re-balanced at the major chain store that installed them and the service writer specifically asked me what PSI I ran my tires at. I told him 29 just like the doorjamb tag says. I got it back and could tell on the ride home they were over inflated. Sure enough, 40 PSI. I have no idea why they bother to ask if they aren't going to actually get it right.

 

What does it say on the side of the tire in small print ? It will have a max pressure on it .

 

Spec is inside the door frame, its 29 psi on most Tacomas.

Max tire pressure is usually 44psi on P metric factory tires.

I set most Tacomas to 32-33psi to prevent the TPMS light from coming on during temp dips.

 

I run my Tacoma at 37 just because they always wear out on the inside and outside first .
