Hello Everyone.
Yesterday I took some family members to the airport without knowing the load limit of my MY, later on out of curiosity I checked what the limit was and I realized I exceeded it.
The load limit in my door sticker says 826lbs and
I estimate that between people and luggage there were around 920lbs total in the car, divided this way: 375lbs in the front seats, 395lbs in the rear seats and 150lbs in the trunk. The two biggest people in the car were next to me and behind me. So without knowing at least the weight was divided evenly throughout the car.
Was a 12 mile/25 minutes ride. Of which 9 miles were on the highway and the other 3 on flat roads. The ride was really chill, smooth braking, smooth turns, etc. The car felt perfectly normal and I didn’t feel any difference from when I drive by myself. The car has only 3k miles that I mostly drive by myself so I would imagine that the suspension is in pretty good shape.
I obviously won’t do this ever again, but is there anything I should be worried about? or anything I should check in the car to make sure everything is alright?
Thanks!
