Tire pressure Turanza EL42 RFT tires

I noticed in the new september driver manual that the recommended tire pressure is diffrent than the manual that came with my car. (325i)
What should use?

Thanks

I too wondered the same thing. I emailed BMW a week ago and never received a response. Today I called BMWNA Customer Relations and spoke to Jeff. He indicated (after putting me on hold for a few minutes) that I should use the inflation pressures listed on the drivers door pillar (the old pressures). I asked him why there was a change and he indicated that it was PROBABLY due to a change in the suspension tuning that was made to the newer production cars. I would like to have further verification of this by some one who REALLY knows the specific reason. Hope this helps.....
