Van starts to make funny noise

[PukkaT6]

then all of a sudden it feels like wheel is about to fall off so pull over - I can hear a noise and look at the wheel and see this little bugger.

Anyone know if vw assist will change tyre for me as my jack is 35 miles away!

Ok so a T6 just rescued a T6 and in return the aa man left with needle sweep, tear drop wipe and austrailia setting.

The T6 love is strong

What happened?

 

[PukkaT6]

Got a big screw in my tyre but unlike when its happened in the past it was very noticeable - to the point I thought something was seriously up.

Ok I'll bite, what's an Australia setting?

Digital speed displayed in the MFD.. activated by telling the van it’s in Australia. (Electronically not just gently whispering it)

I imagine that they go with quite a bang.

Tbh it still had air in 2 hours later to the point it didnt look like it had gone down. Weird how much you could feel it.

i noticed the same noise, but only at low speed

when i swapped my tires over after the getting the rims powder coated, they pointed out the big screw.

It had worn down a little as it was in the groove, but still held air, I'm lucky the tire didn't let go as it was on the front.
