Just two weeks ago I decided to test my 944’s spare tire – you’ll find the video in the #DailyDriver944 playlist.
After discovering it was no good, I’ve also found that my rear right tire has a nail embedded in it…
And so this video is me trying to repair the tire with a repair kit.
I hope you enjoy this #DIY #Porsche repair video and enjoy learning more about your car.

I'm really glad you now know how to do this!
Pushing the plug through is a bit easier if you had more air in the tire.
Thanks for the video. I am a bit careful myself for the reaming and insert tools with plastic handles. Heard stories about the steel part coming loose and penetrating a hand. Rather get the slightly more expensive tools with the steel handles.
