Puncture Repair · M40

Puncture repaired safely off the carriageway
on the M40.

A correct repair lasts the life of the tyre because it's done from the inside, not bunged from the outside. We do it properly at the roadside on the M40.

Punctures on the M40 often come from debris thrown up around the climb and descent at junction 5 Stokenchurch, the Oxford services and the merge with the M42 and A46 at the Warwickshire end. Most are repairable if you stop before the tyre runs flat, so get to a safe spot and call us.

  • Repaired to BS AU 159: a proper internal patch, not a roadside plug
  • Honest assessment: we tell you if it is safe to repair or needs replacing
  • Wheel rebalanced: so you do not pick up a wobble at speed
  • Cheaper than a new tyre: where the damage allows a repair

About the M40

The road we cover.

The M40 links London and Birmingham across 89 miles and 16 junctions, climbing the Chilterns at the Stokenchurch gap. It passes Beaconsfield at junction 2, High Wycombe at 4, Oxford at 8, Bicester at 9, Banbury at 11 and Warwick and Leamington Spa at 12 to 15 before meeting the M42 near Solihull at junction 16. It is a fast inter-city motorway carrying London-to-Midlands business and commuter traffic, with long rural stretches between junctions.

Wherever you've pulled over along it, we come to you and repair the puncture at the roadside rather than have you limp on and ruin the tyre.

Stay safe first

Broken down on the M40?

A slow puncture usually gives you a little time. Reduce speed, put your hazards on and come off at the next exit or into an emergency area rather than stopping in a live lane.

Get off the carriageway

Reach an emergency area, the hard shoulder or the next exit if you safely can, and put your hazards on.

Stand behind the barrier

Leave the vehicle on the passenger side and wait well back. In a live lane, call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000.

Call us

Once you are safe, call and we will come to you on the M40 to puncture repaired safely off the carriageway.
