Temp

Thanks for the info, but I thought b***er it and changed the tyres anyway. Cheers.

My neighbour has a Volvo V70 with which he tows a caravan, and he has had a switch installed in line to turn the sensors off when he has the caravan hitched up. Seems to work with out problem.

No it is a Galaxy. 2.8 Auto 4x4 GhiaX. (Guess it's all the bits Ford's had left from the Sirrea 4x4 line) I was assuming that having different tpyes of tyres front and rear could lead to a difference in rolling diameter, thus 'winding up' the transmission, but as it's only a guess I thought I ask the forum.

Hi I'm new to the forum having just purchased a 99 2.8 4x4. It's great so far, however reading through the handbook I noticed it states that the tyres should all be of the same size, make, type & wear pattern. They're not, different makes front and rear same size though. So before I break the bad news to the missus (& the bank balance) and toddle off to the Tyre shop has anyone had the same situation and did it cause damage to the transmission?
