How this service works

The tyre pressure check process — step by step

Full transparency on exactly what happens from the moment you get in touch to the moment we hand back the keys.

  1. 1

    Read placard spec

    We check your door-jamb or fuel-flap placard for load-correct pressures.

  2. 2

    Measure cold

    Cold pressures read on all four (and the spare on request) with a calibrated gauge.

  3. 3

    Inflate or bleed

    Each tyre brought exactly to spec.

  4. 4

    Visual tread check

    Quick tread-depth and sidewall look-over included — no charge.
