it's easy mate you will find them at Repco or Supercheap usually in a pack of 4 but you really only need one, just screw it on and off for each wheel when you check the air or pump them up.

Go to the dealer, you must use genuine Porsche air......?
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Hi all,
I have a 996 with 18inch turbo twist rims.
I went to the servo yesterday and noticed the air valve is sunken in on these rims and so the servo nozzle does not fit..
Hope what I am saying makes sense.. how or where do you all fill up your tyres?
Thanks.
I have 18" turbo twists too, I use my bike floor pump...that way I get a workout as well...don't need to go to the gym for a week if they're 10psi or more below! Otherwise Lee's suggestion seems like a good one.

I thought a similar thing looking at the title. I thought it was talking about putting Nitrogen in the tyres, which is a bizar upsell I don't understand considering air is already 79% Nitrogen anyway...
It always sounded like more marketing crap to con money out of people.
Like the stupid sign I saw on a packet of bacon the other day saying 'gluten free'
The team I rode for tried it once after all the UK Superbikes teams were using it. Apparently it assists with keeping heat in the tyres in cold weather. It's crap, and doesn't make any difference whatsoever
Not sure if anyone has done it before, but maybe try helium. Probably won't work either, but I will be a laugh trying it out, and youll be an internet sensation! ??
That is very interesting. I can see the use in Formula 1, where they get A grade Nitrogen to make sure there is no water vapour in the tyre, but it is proof that the ones at the tyre shops are rubbish and it does nothing but lighten your wallet.
I don't mind that the guy saved me money, it was just funny the way he did it! I believe the one upside to Nitrogen in your tyres is that the pressure remains constant, so no need to check them
