macbwt Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 This video shows what I suspected and confirmed. The inside wheel bead was leaking. The reason for the leak was due to oxidation of the rim between the wheel and the tire bead. The oxidation eventually increased in enough amounts to allow air to seep out of the tire and cause the tire to loose enough air over about a two week time frame to activate the TPMS for a low tire. This video show the oxidation and the repair to the rim and tire to reseal it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macbwt Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Follow up: No loss of air pressure noted after one week. The fix appears to be working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
