    Thanks for the replies - turns out the wall of the tyre was slashed :mad: - probably the little !!!!! that lives across the road who objects to me parking on the road!

    lol, someone did suggest maybe someone has slashed it

    In the past month I have had to have 4 tyres re-sealed all laking from the rim. Pop your spare on lay tyre flat (pumped up) mix some washing up liquid with water pour between bead and rim and that will show you if it is leaking from there. Do both sides.

    The tyre shop will have a tub of black bead sealer that should do the job.

    Now don't start me on the cost of tyre pressure sensors I have had two snap off and they cost £40 +/- each to replace. Fortunately I am rotating 8 alloys at the moment.
