Being an automotive technician I would reccomend once u realize u have a flat to FIRST fill your tire to atleast 40psi.(if you have a portable air pump) few reasons why in a real world situation u are not going to want to find the leak by driving on a flat damaging ur rim or breaking the bead of the rim. It's very difficult but possible to plug a tire that has no air but while applying force the rubber tire will fold inwards and bend making it difficult to plug. Just add air to tire first, then pull out what ever is making ur tire leak. plug and fill to your doors placard reccomended PSI.

I carry similar patch kit. Got it from local store. I found some random pump. We have a plug in the trunk on drivers side for power adaptor. Also when fixing flat, if there's still air in them. Take all air out before you patch it. This is just temp fix. But pretty neat to get you back on the road. And get to near tire shop so they can put a plug from the inside. I approve this. Cheers

Tommy out here saving lives!! Actually just had to do this recently to my stock wheels so I can confirm this will hold air and fix the tire!

Thank you so much! I'm only irritated with the fact that this video only has 1k likes! It deserves 10x that many! Excellent video. Thanks a ton!

Growing up in amish country, this is all common knowledge… but, I recently moved to a city- and omg. I’ve helped more people then I ever thought I would have to

Great video. Realistically I don't think you have enough leverage to do this without removing the tire. We really need to keep a jack and lug wrench. Thank you for the video.

Thanks! Just bought a new Jaguar F-Pace, and it's a shock finding out there is no spare! Just ordered the kit from your link and feel a lot less worried.

Great video, thanks! After experiencing two flats on by X5 right rear tire - in two weeks I needed something to relieve my stress level!

Oh yeah, this should go smoothly at 2:00 a.m on a pitch black road. Only pure fix is tossing either a space or full size spare. Oh don't forget the Jack😂Each passing M 3-M4 gets longer/wider/fatter yet BMW doesn't include a spare due to added weight.

[scramjet]

Thanks for that great explanation. Will be trying that on a tire I have with a slow leak.

I used one of these from Walmart. Works amazing

[pjoneal]

No tire shop that I have worked at or heard of uses plugs... they all use patches. Plugs do have their place though as they don't require a tire dismount.

Thanks Tommy, I ordered the repair kit, my M2 doorcard says it takes 35 psi all around, is it 40psi for the M3?

[JMD]

...never leave home without such kit! A must have....

[hiphopsocnroc]

Definitely going into my new m4. Thanks man!

Loved your video. The thing that is missing is the jack. You start with the wheel off. Where do you store the jack?

[guiso]

Lol ... Dude Im addicted to your videos lmao. I'm going to sell my car and buy one without a spare tire so I can do this 😃😃

[davidgeorge]

having this repair kit & a jack does provide peace of mind. However, the most important safety tip is getting your vehicle off the road to a safe area to protect yourself & passengers. A flat can happen anywhere & anytime. Got a flat on an interstate a few years ago w/ my children in the vehicle. Didn't even cross my mind to fix it. Pulled over to the shoulder, flashers on, set up a reflector 50' - 60' behind the vehicle, called 911 to inform state police w/ mileage marker & location then called my insurance company for a tow. And yes, I've seen people replacing flat tires in the most dangerous places.

Of course if your tire is seriously damaged (a side wall tear for example) this repair kit would be as useful as a child's magic wand. I would not buy a vehicle without a spare and the only reason many people buy cars without spares is that they are clueless about things in general. Even a donut spare would be infinitely more useful than no spare at all. Good luck everybody!

Needed a quality pump... just ordered your recommendation. 👍🏾
