It should be written in at least 2 places as per Federal Law!!!

The Owners Hand Book & a Sticker, the sticker, either on the passenger door jam , the glove box lid (if so eguipped) or the gas filler lid.

Or 39 Front & 42 Rear...

3.1 bar is 45.5 PSI
1 bar = 14.7 PSI

I get 1 bar = 14.51 PSI and 3.1 bar at 44.98 PSI.

Is my conversion off?

Ok... I go to various web sites and I find many with my conversion but I just found one with your 14.7 conversion. WTF? If they aren't assuming ASL what are they adjusting for?

Example of ones I was using:
