I'm talking about lifting pucks.
I don't know if any repair shop will lift your MY without them.
I had a nail in my rear tire and was notified of this condition via a
message on my dash warning of low tire pressure. I wish it would let
you know which tire was low, but it does not, so had to check them all.
It was my rear left, which luckily was in a position that I could see the nail head.
Luckily, it was smack-dab in the center of the tread, allowing it to be patched.
Headed over to Costco (but didn't think they repaired our tires (and I was right).
Next, headed over to a local tire shop to see if they would repair it (exactly 999 miles on my tires).
First thing he asked was "do you have lifting pucks? I told him they were one of the first things I
bought for my car. He said, okay, no problem. Now at least I know where I can go for future
repairs should I need them and am close to home. Cost with tax was $44 which I thought was reasonable.
Gave the repair guy $5, so basically $50 out the door.
Without the pucks I would have been still looking for a place to patch my tire. I keep them in a bag
in one of the back rear trunk pockets. They've already paid for themselves.
