New TPMS Valve For a Nissan Qashqai
TPMS valve replacements are often seen as quite expensive, when this customer went to Nissan directly they quoted him £150 ex VAT! However, even though we have all genuine parts on board our van, for us to replace the valve is only £45 inc VAT. A massive saving for this customer. In addition, we came out to them on their drive! After quoting the customer our price, we got them booked in for the next morning.
Upon arrival to the Qashqai, we inspected the tyres to see if there was any uneven wear or anything that stood out. There was only one issue that we came across; Both sides of the of all four tyres were wearing down at the same rate and not evenly across the tread. This is due to under-inflation of the tyre. With all the tyres, bar the one we were just about to work on, pumped up to the correct pressures, we proceeded to remove the one wheel with the leaking valve.
The wheel was then placed on our work bench where we popped the bead and removed the old valve and stem.
With the new valve and stem replaced, the tyre was popped back into place and given a quick scrub. We put the new wheel back on the car and asked the customer to give it a quick test drive. After the drive, we checked the pressures of all the tyres. As everything was up to scratch, there we no loss of pressures.
