The tire pressures on a 2019 Audi A4 can be checked directly from the car’s onboard display (TPMS readout) or by measuring the tires with a gauge and comparing to the door jamb placard for the recommended values.
View tire pressures on the dashboard display
Use these steps to read each tire’s pressure from the vehicle’s display. This method relies on the car’s tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) and the instrument cluster/Virtual Cockpit.
- Turn on the ignition or start the engine so the dash and instruments are active.
- On the instrument cluster or Virtual Cockpit, navigate to the Car or Vehicle menu.
- Select the Tire Pressure option to view the current pressures for each wheel (front left, front right, rear left, rear right).
- Note the readings. If any tire shows a low pressure according to the display, plan to inspect and adjust it.
Relying on the onboard readout gives you a quick, in-car check without tools. If the TPMS warning light is on, inspect the tires and inflate to the recommended level as soon as possible.
Check tire pressure with a gauge (manual method)
If you prefer a manual confirmation or if the display isn’t accessible, use a tire pressure gauge and the vehicle’s door placard as reference.
- Ensure tires are cold before measuring (wait at least 3 hours after driving).
- Remove the valve cap from each tire and press the gauge onto the valve stem to get a reading.
- Compare the reading to the recommended cold pressures shown on the driver’s door jamb placard. Inflate or release air as needed to reach the specified values.
- Replace the valve caps securely and recheck the pressures if you adjusted them.
Manual checks are useful for accuracy and for tires that aren’t displaying in the TPMS readout. Always aim to inflate to the manufacturer’s recommended values for the front and rear tires.
Where to find the recommended tire pressures
The exact cold tire pressures for your Audi A4 are listed on the driver’s door jamb placard. This label shows separate values for front and rear tires and may vary by tire size and load configuration. If you’ve installed different tires or wheels, or if you’re carrying a heavy load, consult the owner’s manual or an Audi dealer for the correct figures.
Summary
In a 2019 Audi A4, tire pressures can be checked quickly via the TPMS readout in the instrument cluster/Virtual Cockpit or verified with a handheld gauge using the door placard as the baseline. For accuracy, check tires when cold and adjust to the recommended front and rear pressures. Regular checks help maintain safety and optimal fuel economy.
