Hi I have just bought a MX5 with no manual. Can you please tell me the tyre pressures and where can I get an owners manual.
Thanks
Dave Dillo
Hi D, The tyre pressures should be on a plate inside the drivers door just below the lock plate on the car body. 2bar all round is a good starting point.
I saw a Mk 3 manual on Ebay yesterday 
and many say 29psi all round for tyre pressures
As above, 29psi.
check your messages…
Bought one 3 weeks ago. 29psi all round.
I run my Mk3 at 29psi
Thanks guys for your help. I am using 29psi now.

I have regularly swapped and changed around the tyre pressures on my '08 Mk3, but I generally feel happiest with 31psi all round. The tyres are Kumho with around 4mm of tread.
A good choice. Best change we made to our 2007 PRHT was the SmartTop module. Expensive but nice http://www.ppcgb.com/shop/styling-and-accessories/electrical-gadgets/smart-top-modules/vid-18887
So, now, you’ll be reading up like mad on here and also joining MX5 MK3 facebook pages no doubt and reading that you have to spend to make it into a better car. Fret not. Concentrate on the basics - decent tyres (age and tread), changing the gromets on the windscreen scuttle, possibly adding the intermittent wiper function, fog lights, wind deflector, worrying about “rust” everywhere including inside the boot lid around the number plate lights. Also - depending on age/use - changing transmission fluids in gearbox etc. If the car is an older mk3 then you may want to replace the yellowed plastic coolant expansion tank unit as it can crack around the neck and bu66er the engine. Just get a new one from Mazda etc for about £50 https://www.mx5parts.co.uk/coolant-expansion-tank-mk3-35-p-4179.html . An easy job and ignore the folks who say that you MUST have an ulta expensive balck aluminium one. Oh, and did I mention spark plugs and changing the FL22 coolant? Seriously though - enjoy the knowledgeable comunity and your new MX5! If you need an idea about spending money then go to https://www.mx5parts.co.uk/mk-3-c-378.html One day you may be allowed to just go out for a drive to anywhere you want at any time. Stay safe.
