I just bought a red 1999 with ~20,000 miles for a daily driver in Austin, TX. No owner's manual. A couple of questions - what tire pressure do folks run (front and rear)- I saw the placard in the driver's door jam re tire pressure but sometimes experience shows a different inflation works better ----- and, how do I check the transmission fluid? (I'm going to feel really dumb if there is a dip stick in the engine compartment - I didn't even look because the seller told me the Prowler has a transaxle??? Remember - you're never too old to have a happy childhood. N |

To check your transmission fluid, open the "trunk" and lift up the carpet on the driver's side. There will be a big rubber grommet. Remove that grommet and there is your dipstick. For air pressure I run at either what the door says or a couple lbs. higher. There are some owners manuals for sale around. This message has been edited by idive on 04-29-2003 at 07:56 PM |

Norm #2 - Welcome to the POA website! I'm sure MDiver answered the tranny question correctly for you. My door jam shows 28psi COLD tire pressure, but I run mine 32 front and 34 back. JMO Please feel free to ask questions or add your input to any DISCUSSION FORUM topic, at any time. ENJOY THE RIDE ------------------

Norm, There are a couple 1999 owners manuals on Ebay. Go to the Ebay link on the home page here at prowler online. And when do we get to meet Vera? |

A question for you would be, "Are there still run flat tires on the car?". I would assume a lot of the lesser pressure answers you received are from people with run flats still on the car. I do not have the original tires and run mine 32 in the front and 33-34 in the rear, but I have a much softer tire from Kumho.

I run around 28 ft and 29 rear. Higher pressures only make the Kat ride really rough. If I go on a trip I'll add a lb.or two. JRL |
