Slow leak in tyre, what should be my next step?

[TDIESEL]

Knowing the exact tyre pressure and temperature of the tyre is very handy, you'll know of a puncture before you damage the tyre and well before you would notice otherwise in most cases.

You can see if a tyre is overheating or has a slow leak, the former you can't tell normally and the slow leak could take a long time before you pick it up.

This type of monitoring has been compulsory for all vehicles in the US since September 1 2007 and China is looking to make it mandatory as well as there are enormous safety and environment benefits.

Call me old fashioned but i'll stick to a $10 tyre guage and check my pressures every now and again.

Isn't it amazing how lazy technology has made us.......

Every 30 seconds when the car is in motion?

Or safe.. actually both.

It actually improves the safety especially at high speed on hwy where small puncture or leak can have serious consequences for higher speed turning or braking (under inflated tyre can come of the rim or the air can escape suddenly from the tyre.)
I installed the aftermarket wireless monitoring kit in our Golf and my T5. It alerts the driver if there is sudden air pressure loss. It displays tyre temperature and pressure including spare tyre. Great safety enhancement.
