Since when did petrol stations have new machines to pump your tyres up,How easy it is now you just put the trye pressure in the machine and it does it for you,The last time i used one it had a needle gauge.

I allways go to the tyre place 5minutes away from my house and he does it for me.

at least a few years now. :)

'tis where i check mine most of the time. Saves the hassle of getting my little 12v one out all the time.

I boot up the compressor in my garage and do all the cars. I also check the pressures using my gauge.

Just depends on the garage i think. The one in Sainsburys near me is free. Tesco one is charged.

And free at Sainsburys. I check my tyres at my local Sainsburys about every 2 weeks.

Morrisons is free when you spend over £30 on fuel. Ya need to ask for a code to type in though

Can not do mine, my superspecial MG logo dust caps (off ebay) have welded themselves on to the valve. I was warned and kept on meaning to copperslip them but too late!! I have got one undone using a spanner and a pair of pliars must get WD40 on the rest.:hmm::hmm::hmm:
