    I have one tyre on my Hyundai i30 that seems to have a very slow puncture.
    Needs pumping up every 3 weeks or so.
    Going to change tyre tomorrow. Is there much difference in price between
    the likes of advance pitstop and private garages?
    How much would you be talking about for one tyre?

    Proper puncture repairs are normally between €10-€15.

    There are many places that will just plug the tyre for cheaper but this isn't a proper repair.

    It could also be the wheel rim after a dent from a pothole leaving air out slowly.

    Yes^. On a steel wheel use a lump hammer to straighten it.
    Could be a dirty valve core too.
