I parked my car at a HDB carpark for about 3 days then just now when I wanted to drive the car, both front tyres looked total flat. I drove extremely slow to a nearby petrol kiosk and check air pressure, they were ZERO! After that went to petrol workshop but they did not find any nail or hole or tear or any possible sign of air leak. It worries me. What could be the cause?
Both front tyres pressure dropped to ZERO!

Re: Both front tyres pressure dropped to ZERO!
Check yr rim valves to ensure there is no cracks which could cause the air to escape..but most likely in your case where 2 front are totally flat out some itchy hands have let go the air on purpose. valve caps also missing?

Re: Both front tyres pressure dropped to ZERO!
Valve and valve caps no problem. Have let the workshop staff checked. Means high chance its some kind of prank? So it is possible to let the air out with damaging the tyres? The person still cover the caps back.
Anyway there was still air in the tyres but the air pump shown no pressure. Was driving around 30km/l with hazard light on all the way. Haiz.. I wonder whether driving with such air pressure would have damaged the tyres.

U may ask the wkshop to dismounted the tires n ck th inner liner to see any damages due to heat as you run them on low pressure. short dist shd be fine.

Runflat tyre allows you to carry on running even at Zero pressure .
but it comes with the condition of not running faster than 80km/h and max dist of 85km
and better get the tyre expert to do a check.
If you are sitting on runflat tyre, you are just enjoyed the benefit of runflat tyre.airnow;613434 said:
