I had a tyre one my car (not a daily driver, in storage) that was looking a little bit flat one week, well all 4 of them were hadn't been pumped up in months, but then when I checked it 2 weeks later it was dead flat?
Would it suddenly go flat like that all by its' own, faulty valve or something?
Or was it some kids being punks? I doubt this though as it's in a secure apartment parking lot.
But anywhoo, if I go out and pump it up today, if its been knived or something or the valve is obviously crook it will be easy to spot, but how long will it take to go flat with the weight of the car not on it? Or would it even? If I take it to a tyre place can the check it in anyway, last time I had this problem it was a weight not seated on the rim correctly and they spotted this by dunking it in water, similar deal this time?
Yeah, bit long winded eh?
