Rob,
Is your tire pressure decal at driver side door jamb missing like mine?
You need 36psi (cold) at front and 40psi at rear for the Syncro, IF YOU
HAVE THE VW RECOMMENDED 205/70 R 14 REINFORCED TIRES.  To me, different
tires may need different air pressure depends on their design and the load
range.  Check the sidewall to make sure the air pressure does not exceed
the maximum psi allowed.  If your tires can't put more than 35psi, like a
lot of US made "P-Metric"  tires do, then you got problem.
