    My wife has. Took her d/side front in a week ago for a suspect puncture, they didn't take tyre off wheel, just pumped it up to 50psi, left it two days, still at same so assumed ok. Been ok for a week, at least, was when I checked it, did tell her to keep an eye on it but has tyre pressure monitoring. Left 9.30am for important Carer's meeting, got 5 mile then had to come off dual carriageway as tyre was flat. I've been suspecting some pr1cks tampering with our tyres for some time, tyre place going to give it the CSI treatment this time, so we'll see!

    Nice and dangerous there! Can't believe people will play with stuff like that.

    Place a TINY bit of thread lock on the valve cap thread. Not too much or you won't undo it. It will stop people easily undoing them with their hands though.

    After it all started - and we kept finding roll up fag dog ends along the front of the house, alongside the cars, I fitted the locking type, ones that just spin without the key. Of course, if they buy a set they get a key, all the same, not enough space on a valve cap to do much.
    One of Wendy's went missing, and I personally reset her tyre pressure monitoring system to trigger if it dropped below 2.2 bar, will see what the local tyre place thinks, as they said it was ok a week ago, they're taking it personally. If it is tampering, they better not let me catch them, could kill someone this weather.
