tyre issue

[Jacklim82]

For the pass 3 week, i try to pump my tyre every 3/4 days coz i felt something wrong rite.

 

i found out my right rear tyre will lose ard 30 to 40 psi compare to the other 3 tyre ard 20psi.

 

Anyone have any idea what is the issue?

Tyre valve rubber dried and cracked (the one where u pump air with the screw cap)

Did you check your tyre for any screw, etc?

[Jacklim82]

Try looking ard the tyr.. no screw

If I go to tyre shop and ask them check.. will they charge me?

how old are the tyres already?

you might not be able to find the puncture if there is one, so go to a tyre shop to get it checked even if it cost some $$$

if no screw or nail usually is the tyre valve...my previous tyre valve was changed foc at stamford as i bought the tyres from them. I think its oni 5 bucks per valve...go check it out. My current tyre kana nail and was patched by Arrow tyres foc too as i got the tyres from them.

bring your ori receipt just in case....some shops offer foc if oni you can produce the receipt. Never bought tyres from them before...but i bought my rims from them. Tyre became flat a day after changing rims and had to go back to them for checks foc.

did they replace the valve when changing tyre

most cheapo shops dont, or give u "new" valves which are actually just taken out from the prev guy before u

This happen to me a few months ago. One tyre needs to pump more air than the other 3....but I checked the tyre and found nothing. So went to a tyre shop and they checked carefully and found a very very small nail in it. Patch it up and now all OK.

 

There is surely some leak somewhere, and only a expert mechanic (from the tyre shop) can detect it. If really no punture found then the next possible culprit is the air valve. Both patching or a new tyre valve is inexpensive to replace.

 

So please go to a tyre shop and check it out.

Thanks for thw advice but can only go there on weekend.

 

I bought both rim and tyre from them so maybe can ask them replace for foc

Finally find time to go AL tyre, that guy checked by submerge the wheel into a pool of water and check for bubbles...

 

Found the culprit, is a nail. Weirdest part is why nail puncture in never leak alot??

 

Also did my rotation and balancing there @ $16.

Becos that nail just nice occupy almost all the space (maybe 98%) in the punture. But the reminder "2%" the nail can't cover, so the air leak from there, but not leak alot...

 

Btw, how much they charge you for the patch?
