Subaru Tire Pressure

 
Maintaining your Subaru tire pressure is essential. You’ll get better handling, gas mileage, and a shorter stopping distance. Your vehicle will be safer when navigating South Salt Lake streets. We recommend you check the Subaru tire pressure once a month in Salt Lake City for the best results while visually inspecting the tires once a week in Park City and wherever you are.
Read our guide to learn more. We’ll tell you how to check Subaru tire pressure and what it means when you see the Subaru tire pressure light on your dashboard in Tooele.

What Is the Recommended Subaru Tire Pressure? 

The Subaru tire pressure should stay between 32 and 36 psi (pounds per square inch), depending on the model. Knowing how to check the Subaru tire pressure involves maintaining the right amount of air. 

What Does the Subaru Tire Pressure Light Indicate? 

When the Subaru tire pressure light illuminates, your tires are under or overinflated. Either way, you need to pay attention. Low or high tire pressure can happen due to seasonal changes. Tire pressure decreases during cold weather because air molecules contract when the temperatures plummet. This pressure increases when it is hot outside, as heat causes air molecules to expand. Your tires might seem overinflated in the summer. 

Due to various factors, it’s normal for tires to lose about one psi per month in ordinary conditions, but you might not immediately see this change. If your Subaru tire pressure light comes on, adjust to the season based on the measurements you take. If the Subaru tire pressure light stays on after that, bring your vehicle to our service center or schedule service so we can reset the system.

How to Check Subaru Tire Pressure

Want to know how to check the Subaru tire pressure? Follows the straightforward step below:

1. Purchase a tire pressure gauge from an auto parts store. These items are about the size of a pencil and cost just a few dollars. They are very accurate compared to the pressure gauge at gas station air pumps.
2. Find the correct PSI for your tires in the owner’s manual or the driver’s door frame.
3. Unscrew the cap on each tire.
4. Insert the gauge tool to check the pressure. If it is too low or too high, make the necessary adjustments. 
5. If your Subaru has a spare tire, use the gauge tool to check its pressure.
