  • Tyre Valve Issue.

    Hi all hopefully someone can help.
    Went to inflate front drivers side tyre today but it won't inflate. When connect air line it just let's the air out of tyre and won't pump up.

    Took it to a local tyre garage who informs me it's the valve. But may need to go to dealer for part or eBay.

    So do I need a whole new TPMS sensor. Or just the actual valve bit ?

    Thanks

    It be just the valve bit, speak to your local tyre fitted.

      When i had my tpms removed to have new ones fitted, the valve is left with a hole, so what you need is the replacement of the centre pin bit.

        The tiny needle? If so they tried that but doesn't work.

          Best thing to do is speak to your tire place and see what they say.

              does the tyre hold any pressure or is it completely flat? did they dump the wheel in a bucket of water to see if its leaking out the valve or where the steam meets the wheel?

                It's not leaking any air out the tyre. It just won't inflate if you wanna put air in mate

                          It's still in warranty then. Get it down the dealers and let them change it for free

                            Yeah take it to the stealers, if they do say no, take it to a different one (one with different motorgroup name). They don't work to the same book.
                            My Air con condensor was broken on my old car which was still under warranty, the stealer i took it to, wanted to charge me for the repair, it was pricey, anyway i didn't have it done for a year or 2, then speaking on the forums people had their replaced under warranty, i was bit fuming, they should of done it for me foc.
