Hi Robert,
I've sent you an e-mail with a useful conversion file.

Regards,
John

Does this work for tire pressure as well?? I have never heard about 'PSI' before, only 'BAR' and no, not the one where you can drink beer!?! (I am working in a office = not so techy, NOT 'IT' THOUGH!!) Now I feel pretty stupid but at least I know the difference between miles/h and km/h (always thought that you guys have pretty slow cars!!)
John H: Please post your info in this threat!! And don't try to e-mail me since I am using my Dreamcast (gamemachine) to send posts/look at the BBS (only possible with other DC's!!)
Cheers

Hi Swiss Scooby,
I sent Rob an e-mail with an attatchment . I hate to admit it but when it comes to computers I've still a lot to learn and don't know how this attatchment could be sent to you without PC access. Apologies .

Regards,
John

Swiss Scooby,

Yes it does apply to tyre pressures too. My sister was wondering why her car handled like a donkey - it was 'cos she thought 2.2 bar was 22 psi (it's 32 psi!).

The conversion factors are:

1 bar = 14.50377 psi
1 psi = 0.06894757 bar
