Yeah... wasnt picked up at home. .Was picked up in London, given the speed the tyre deflates and when it was first showing up. I was driving home laast night, and about half way home the warnign came on. Pulled into the next services and topped up the tyre and by the time I got home, it was on again.

 

Could be it moved and opened the hole a bit, but it is wedged in almost sideways;

 

Either way, It has made me very grumpy..

Is it Insurance claimable?  Nev

 Sometimes it can be Plugged. Is it tubeless?  Nev

Even " tubeless " tyres can have a proper repair done .

After the tyre is demounted the

" vulcanising patch " is applied inside the tyre .

A lot of places will tell you the plug is as good as a " vulcanised patch " repair , which is B S .

Yeah, it's repairabvle. £25 is not worth claiming; it is more finding the time to drop off at the tyre place.
