HOW TO FIX A TIRE VALVE STEM CORE (5 MINUTES)
Here is my how to fix a tire valve stem core. On my 2004 BMW 325i. The valve stem core was broken and leaking air. I simply drove to Auto Zone, and purchased this Slime Tire Tackle Kit for $5.46. Drove to the pump at the nearest gas station and fixed it right there. Hope this video helps!

    Thank you sir, my valve stem core just had the same problem and I will use this method to take it out too.

    The greatness of UA-cam!! 6 years later and people can still refer back to it!! Thank you so much for taking the time to share and teach us novices to do simple things for ourselves. This just happened to me today and all the videos I watched were about air not getting in or out, whereas, mine was air coming out just like yours. I'm sure it's the same problem but when you don't know much about cars, seeing the same problem helps so much more!! On my way to buy the kit. Thanks so much again and thanks for going straingt to the point!!

    Safety glasses are good idea. Valve could blow out under pressure injuring your eye.

    If mine is not sticking out and is in there regularly could I possibly need to change the whole valve?

      Funny. My brother-in-law has a Master's degree in electrical engineering, is very wealthy, and has always owned at least one BMW at any one time. He rebuilds BMW engines, and does any other mechanical work needed. You just never know!

  • @hogroamer260

    Good video, my stem was not sticking out. Tire held pressure but would not let air in but would let air out (wierd!). FYI, three years later the kit at Auto Zone now is just the 4-way tool and (4) valve stem cores. Good news it was only $4.95. One tip for anyone doing this, have the replacement stem core in hand and put it in asap after removal of the old one. You don't have to wait for the tire to deflate, even a little.

    This might be just me being super stupid, but I somehow caused the air leak by inflating the tire. And the tire kept deflating loudly and very fast until nothing was there. So all I did was take pliers and pushed the tip a bit inside the valve. It immediately stopped making leaking noise and that made me happy. However, does make me wonder why it was so sensitive in the first place!

      It did work, but I couldn't air it up because this was on my semi steer tire By the time I got back from the store, the tire was already off the rim.. Had to call a wrecker service to air it up

    very useful. My bike is having an issue with the valve core. Didn't know it had a name. Going to but a thing to fix it later. (tire wont release air when i press on the core and the little bit is so close to the rim i can't do anything)

    The end of the valve pin opposite to the end we turn is sometimes flat and sometimes having a pin structure,are both compatible with schrader type valves of cars, motorcycles and bicycles?
