Hi there

Can anyone tell me the best place to buy a stem valve for my Nissan Qashqai 2014, currently I have 2 that are leaking (diagnosed by a national tyre centre) and it is driving me mad as I need to inflate my tyres every other day. I have gone to a Nissan and they are quoting me £55 for the stem valve to buy (not fit), I contacted another garage and they have said I can only get them from Nissan. Is there anywhere else I can get one as I know someone who will fit them for me.

Thank you in advance

Any tyre centre should have them, they don’t have to be Nissan ones. You should get them a little cheaper, though 55quid is not unreasonable.

cant you just replace the inner valve? or if its the unit, just replace an o-ring ?

As gvmdaddy mentioned £55 is not bad from Nissan. These things are advertised everywhere as a Unit or as Daewar mentioned as Spare part items. Here are a couple of ideas which might help you - Dave :D

If they have tpms valves, go to Kwik Fit, got mine done, they have repair kits that have all the seals to repair them, cost about £10 - £15 a wheel fitted! Hope that helps!
