I discussed with the shop and they feel that the stems must have not been replaced last tire change.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

15 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Got a flat on the way home yesterday. Ended up being a tear in the base of the valve stem. Seems odd. Have others experienced this?

POST 2Original post

It happens - sometimes it's from a person that is a bit jealous of your fine wheels.

POST 3Original post

Could be old reused valve stems from a previous tire replacement ? On my older air cooled 911 the valve stems would fold over at speed. Aluminum valve stem supports were necessary. My C4S got new very short metal valve stems at her last new set of tires. Should be a easy fix at a competent tire shop.

POST 4Original post

It's a Porsche, so you should never expect a flat tire, even caused by an old worn out valve stem. I see a lawsuit against Porsche for this travesty of justice and order. Make sure that you only specify OE Porsche valve stem replacements and only have it done by a certified accredited Porsche mechanic at a Porsche dealer. Check them out first and ask for the certified paperwork. Make sure you fully document with pictures and a written service repair order. Who knows what type of cruddy cheap valve stem your local tire store would use?! I can't even imagine what this has done to the value of your car.....

POST 5Original post

Joe Calm down! BTERRY1 has probably only taken about a 10% hit on value.

POST 6Original post

Check that rim for sharp edges around the stem. As Seeeu911 mentions it may have been an old valve. I have had one go bad on my BMW R1100RT. It was 17 yrs old.

POST 7Original post

I had the same issue - old valve stems crack on any car. Not a Porsche exclusive in this case.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Got it replaced. No sharp edges. No charge. I discussed with the shop and they feel that the stems must have not been replaced last tire change. fpb11 - Dstutler - Seeeu911, thank you for "constructive" feedback.

POST 9Original post

Hopefully you did all four! I was being a bit sarcastic..my apologies.

POST 10Original post

DBJoee996 we all got that, I thought it was pretty funny. Cheers! It's always such a pleasure to be among the 996 crowd. I think we are the most humours, helpful and encouraging group there is.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Back tires are brand new with stems, and yes took care of the other questionable front. Joe- no hard feelings.

POST 12Original post

had that happen on my trailer, put the cause to uv exposure.

POST 14Original post

Did you check the IVS? "Intermediate valve seal" for you newbies. It's a big problem with 996's.
