If you do not have a basin large enough to fit a wheel inside, fill up a bottle with some soapy water. Slowly pour the soapy water all around the tire and rim and look for bubbles to form.
lol seriously??? that is not even the question at hand. You dont think Nissan has done that already?? They have done that, they have checked it 4 times now, replaced the TPSM, checked the bead, all fine..

I do have a leak, every 2-3 weeks i get the low air light on my car and its down to 27 lbs... there is a leak that they arent sure of and speculate it to be a plug that wont hold, it happens.... now that ive explained fully for everyone, so if anyone has any useful info about my actual question, i would appreciate it..
