RAV4 Tire Pressure

How to check Toyota RAV4 tire pressure

If you own a new Toyota RAV4 (or you’re considering putting one in your driveway), you need to know how to take care of it. Today we’re talking tires – what should your Toyota RAV tire pressure be, what size tires should you buy, and how can you best care for them? Our Orlando Toyota service techs are here with answers.

What is the recommended Toyota RAV4 tire pressure?

Let’s start with Toyota RAV4 tire pressure – this is one of the most common aspects of car maintenance you’ll encounter. You should check your tire pressure biweekly to ensure your tires are inflated to the right PSI, and you should also pay attention to the tire pressure light in your RAV4’s dashboard. Here are the basics.

• Your Toyota RAV4 tire pressure should be between 30-35 PSI per tire based on your RAV4 model. However, the best way to check what your PSI should be is to look in your owner’s manual. It should state the exact PSI that you want all tires inflated to.
• Keep in mind that different sizes of tires require different PSI, as do different types of tires. If you’re not sure what your Orlando Toyota RAV4 tire pressure should be for your specific set of tires, ask our service techs for a recommendation.

How to check your Toyota RAV4 tire pressure

How can you check your Toyota RAV4 tire pressure like we recommended? There are several ways to do it – here’s what our Toyota of Orlando techs suggest:

• Look in the dash. Newer models of the RAV4 give you a tire pressure readout right there in the dash – you can see the PSI of all four tires and also get notifications when one of them is low.
• Use a tire pressure gauge. Another surefire way to check Toyota RAV4 tire pressure is to use an old-fashioned tire pressure gauge. Remove the cap from the stem on your tire, put the gauge on there, and take the reading. Be sure to replace the cap before you finish up!

Why should you check tire pressure? Well, because it has a major impact on your car’s performance and also your fuel efficiency. Your tires should be inflated to the right PSI at all times to ensure that they wear evenly, which means they’ll last longer. You’ll also get better traction with properly inflated tires and get the fuel efficiency you deserve – underinflated tires lower your MPGs and your grip on the road. Need a lesson in how to check it?
