The job, step by step
Found it flat in Haringey? Leave it where it is.
Wood Green produces flats in two ways: slow leaks from the trade traffic around Turnpike Lane that finish the tyre overnight on a Noel Park bay, and valve or bead leaks that show up after a day in The Mall's car park. The temptation is to drive the flat tyre down the High Road to a garage. A few hundred yards on the rim destroys the sidewall, and it can turn a repairable puncture into a full replacement.
Keep it on the bay and ring with the street, the postcode and whether it is a pay bay or permit bay; if the car is in The Mall's car park it needs to come out to a Noel Park street on a spare or with an inflator first. The fitter takes the tyre off, traces the leak and tells you if it can be patched to BS AU 159 or needs replacing, with the cost of either confirmed by phone before the van heads out.
On run-flat tyres? They behave differently once deflated, so check the handbook's limits and read our page on run-flat tyres; we fit replacement run-flat tyres at the car in Haringey as well.
You can book broken tyre replacement or 24 hour tyre service in Haringey on the same call.
