Tyre valve trouble!!

[az_e11]

I have been having trouble, with my front left tyre, keep loosing air from the valve, got quick fit to replace the valve a few times but, only lasts a while.
And very annoying, as havin to compress tyre too much now, coz of heavy steering

Any ideas???

I considered buying some better valves,
Stupid question??
could this solve my problem, as i have just noticed that on the rest of my alloys there are metal type valves, but this one has always had a black standard one on since i bought the car.

probably isnt the valve then

more than likely a puncture or leaky rim

[az_e11]

yep, it could be a puncture,
However I am sure its the valve, coz if u put water around the valve, u can hear there air escpaping.

Noticed that when washing my car
