Sorry, I couldn't detect a leak, but was in the process of uploading a video of the test, for a second opinion! :)
Anyway, it is redundant now, because I have tracked down the cause, there is a nail in the tread, not sure how I missed it the first time I looked, but it is quite a small head, well embedded and I was looking for it during the evening.
I suspect foul play...maybe from a neighbour that I had a bit of a run in with a few months back, since then I have found glass shards spread across the entrance to my drive and now I have picked up a nail with less than 2,000 miles driven...maybe sabotage or maybe bad luck...either way, that's a different story...
With a nail in the tread and. at a guess, probably having driven it for 500 miles with that nail, am I likely looking at a new tyre?
Any thoughts on whether I should replace with a matching tyre would be appreciated.
Thanks again.
