Well today I wrote a check for $350.00 for a new tire for the SUV. OK - I didn't really write a check - who uses checks any more?
Apparently a nail found it's way into the sidewall of the left rear tire, and caused a slow leak, as in 10 psi per day or so. The tire pressure monitoring system (which I used to loathe on a prior vehicle due to its constant false alarms) actually did its job nicely and warned us of the leak. It didn't tell us exactly which tire it was, of course - that would be too much to ask.
Anyway, after the second trip to the gas station to put air in the tire, I realized something was amiss and took it to the dealer. We picked it up this morning and are back in business, albeit a few hundred dollars poorer :(
And no - that's not a picture of my Q7 or my house for that matter :)
