Apart from the obvious flat tyre, there are several other indications suggesting that a tyre might be damaged.
These signs are as follows:
- The TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring) warning light is showing on the vehicle's dashboard
- Steering is becoming more difficult
- The vehicle shakes while driving
- If there is a nail or screw in the tyre, it may make a ticking sound when the tyre is rotated as it contacts the road
- The tyre is slowly losing air but seems intact. It either has a tiny puncture or a faulty valve.
- Depending on which side the defect is on, the car can pull to the left or right.
About Our Puncture Repair Bicester
In order to safely repair the damage, there are a few guidelines listed in British Standard BS AU 159 that we should ensure that we follow. They set limits on the location, size and amount of permissible tyre repairs. To comply with these recommendations and safety regulations, we will only repair a puncture in the "small repair area" or the middle ¾ of the tyre. Additionally, we do not repair punctures greater than 6mm in diameter.
We also cannot repair sidewall damage or tyres with a tread depth below 1.6mm (the legal minimum).
As a result of a partnership with Tyresafe.org, an organisation that actively promotes road safety, the British Tyre Manufacturers Association (BTMA) mandates tyre experts to carry out puncture repairs in accordance with the British Standard.
Your safety is an absolute priority!
As a result, we will not perform a "string" repair. Repairing a puncture from the outside of a tyre is known as string repair. This is considered unsafe as the repair is not permitted by British Standard BS AU 159, and the technician will not be able to examine the internal damage to the tyre caused by the puncture.
While conducting a puncture repair Bicester, we will employ the plug, patch or the plug and patch methods depending on the extent of damage on the car tyre.
Hence, you can choose us for your "puncture repair near me" searches.
