Tyre Puncture!
It was my first time encountered tyre punched. It happened when I was at Cyberjaya yesterday. I brought few students attended a briefing at Cyberjaya. I noticed my tyre is flatted after we planned to go back.
None any of us has the experience in changing the tyre. But, we just tried to change it with the theory we have learned. I called my colleague who has experienced on it. So, here are few things that we learned when you encounter tyre punched:
- Loosen tyre’s screws, but not entirely take off.
- Lift/jack your car off the ground by the tool provided in your car.
- Take off the screws and change with the spare tyre.
- Tighten the screws, but not entirely.
- Lowered down your car, and tighten the screw entirely.
There is another incident happened after we changed the tyre. My spare tyre also flattens! I drove to the nearest petrol station to fill the air. However, I tried to fill it but it didn’t work! I was panic, is it my spare tyre GONE as well? Luckily, the assistant came to help me. He said must choose the “FOR FLATTEN TYRE ONLY” option in that pump to fill the air! I really don’t know it, do you?
After all the hassle, I drove slowly back to PJ. It was an adventure trip for me!
