Yesterday I drove my new face lift Mazda Cx3 from the dealer to my home , I was very very happy but I noticed that in bumps my car was like a 20 year old truck stiff . When I arrrived home I checked the tyre pressure and all of them was aboce 50 psi. I made them 31 psi but I think it is still a little bit stiff , what do you think ?

My owner's manual says 36psi F 33 R but my car is a Canadian spec vehicle. Mexican vehicles are 33psi F and R (215/50/18 tires).

Your owner's manual should say what the pressure should be for your vehicle in your area. Yes 50 psi is too much I would tell the dealer about that (I wonder is they did a PDI on the car before you took it home).

edit: I saw the pic of your car in your garage. I think you should take a better pic and post it up so us N. American people can see your Euro spec CX-3 a little better. It looks like your car has different 18" wheels than our versions over here.

The thing is that all the cx3 owners manual finished , they will give me one when they arrive . Yes they made a fantastic pdi test , tyres 50+ psi and the fuel door is not opening !! I will upload some pics of the car over the weekend .

You can download an english manual from Mazda UK:
https://www.mazda.co.uk/buying-owning/product-features-and-manuals/

and there should be a sticker inside the drivers door showing the correct pressure.

Yes Thankyou I will check the door sticker and tell you

I seem to remember that the sticker on mine, says 2.3 bar at the front and 2.1 bar at the back with medium load (three people), that's with 215/50-18 wheels.

So thats why Im feeling my Cx3 a little bit stiff because now my tyres are about 31- 32 psi

2.1 BAR is around 30.5 PSI and 2.3 BAR is around 33 PSI. I would not recommend reducing them much more than the 31 to 33 PSI settings you currently have.
