Tyres at the MOT
In 2025, the Peugeot Partner failed its MOT on tyres in 6.0% of 150,776 tests. Cars of the same age failed on tyres 6.2% of the time, so it was about average for its age. Another 25.0% passed with a tyre advisory, usually tread close to the limit.

Resetting the tyre pressure warning light on your Peugeot
Most UK Peugeots from about 2013 (208, 2008, 308, 3008, 5008 and current models) use an indirect under-inflation detection system that compares wheel speeds, so it has to be reset after setting the pressures. Some older Peugeots had sensors in the valves.
- Set all four tyres to the label pressures, cold, suited to the load.
- Switch the ignition on, staying parked.
- On the touchscreen, open the Driving (or Vehicle) menu and choose Under-inflation initialisation; on the newest i-Connect screens it's Settings > Vehicle > Safety > Tire Pressure Setup.
- Confirm with Yes. A message and a beep confirm it.
Cars without a touchscreen
- Press and hold the under-inflation reset button on the dashboard for about 3 seconds until it beeps.
- On the Peugeot 108, the button is in the glovebox: press it until the warning lamp flashes 3 times.
When to reset: Reset after every pressure adjustment or wheel change. The warning won't clear by itself.
Menu names vary by model and year, so check your handbook if yours looks different. More in what the warning light means.

What tyre pressure should a Partner have?
35 psi at the front and 35 psi at the rear (2.4 and 2.4 bar) on the standard 15-inch wheels, with the tyres cold.
Should I use a higher pressure when the car is loaded?
The manufacturer gives one figure for this car, so no. If you're carrying a full load for a long motorway run, the label on the door pillar may show a higher figure — follow that if it does.
What tyre size does the Partner use?
205/65R15. The size is on the tyre's sidewall, e.g. 235/40R18.
Does the Peugeot Partner fail the MOT on tyres more often?
No, it's about average for its age. In 2025, 6.0% of Peugeot Partner MOT tests failed on tyres, against 6.2% for cars of the same age (DVSA MOT data, 150,776 tests). Another 25.0% passed with a tyre advisory.
Check them cold. Pressures are set for tyres that haven't been driven more than a mile or two. After a run they read 3–4 psi high.
Once a month, and before a long trip. Tyres lose about 1 psi a month on their own.
The sticker wins. If your car's door-pillar or fuel-flap label says something different, go with that — it knows your exact spec.
