Comares2001 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Poor seal on rim or round valve. Probably didn't clean them properly before fitting new tyres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 As above, fitters fault, not Black Circles. 2psi difference is normal for temp changes, but there definitely seems to be an issue at the front left*. Check I'd they fitted new valves. And see if you can hear a leak around the valves if in a quiet area. *Rear right is a typo right? 24psi rather than 4psi lol?

Lawson86 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Pump them up to the correct pressure and get a spray bottle with soapy water, give the wheels a good spray especially around the rim and valve if you see bubbles go straight back to the centre that fitted them and get them to sort them out. Probably a lack of clean when fitting the tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewie226 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Did your TPMS not trigger as soon as they dropped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh mate the tyres were worryingly low Found out the prob was leaky valve The ones damaged inside now apparently have to pay for a new one even though new valves were not fitted 2 hours ago, Lewie226 said: Did your TPMS not trigger as soon as they dropped? No that has been disabled by my tuner as it was always on even when tyres were fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
