Holy fucking shit! No! Get your car towed to a dealership ASAP! Only a certified technician can install those!

He's right OP, listen to this guy. Don't risk it.

You're fucked.

just go check your tyre pressure and try get a new cap from a car shop as soon as you can.

you could tape it and stuff something in there for now if you're worried. Make sure you can get it out though.

TOTALLY NOT SERVICEABLE

Nigga what

Kiss your warranty goodbye, friend. You might as well sell the rest for scrap at this point.
Trust me, I work for a car dealership, and we wouldn't even want it back.

Its gonna cost you at least 500 dollars for a new one

Nope not at all, I bet you also forgot to refuel your headlights as well

DO NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE

Just get a cap from your toothpaste tube and screw it onto that bitch.

Good as new.

Or off a stranger's bicycle

...

Just go to the air pump at your nearest gas station and have a look around, there will very likely be one sitting nearby.

...

dust cap is just there to prevent sand and shit from getting in, no big deal. just go to a tire shop and theyll give you one, when i was a mechanic i kept old ones and had them by the hundreds and gave em away

you can get new ones from walmart or wherever in the automotive section too

You could take the opportunity to get the fancy ass oem caps

Valve cap.

Just buy a new set.

wait... does that mean whem I put air in my tires, I have to have a qualified mechanic to put it back on?

WHAT EVER YOU DO, DO NOT GO TO THE CAR PARKED NEXT TO YOU AND STEAL THEIRS.

THESE ARE NOT 1 SIZE FITS ALL, IF YOU STEAL ONE OFF THE OTHER GUY, YOU ARE SERIOUSLY RISKING CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE.

MY BUDDY TRIED TO DO THIS, AND THE CAR REJECTED IT. LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.

fuck you nigger

>and the car rejected it
Next time light more incense to please its machine spirit you fucking heretic.

>he drove it home

Are you fugging serious? A set screw so you bend the fucking valve stem just enough to et the Schrader valve gets jammed in there and you can't put air in properly?!

The set screw goes in the side of the cap so niggers can't steal your $15 caps, it doesn't touch the valve core.

Yeah all it does is fuck the threads on the valve, but oh well. Unless it has a rubber tip.

>it's raining
>I quickly need to fill the tires with air
>I can't find the allen key

or
>asshole just uses forces to unscrew them and fucks up your valve entirely

has this been made into a banner yet? if not it should

Valve stems are like $3 a pair at Walmart and you don't even have to take the tire off to change it. If you walked up to my bay and asked me to change your stem I'd do it for free.

Go on foot. For god sake.

How do you replace the valve stem without unseating the bead?

You parting bro? Sorry about your loss.

You do have to unseat the bead but you don't have to take the tire off the wheel.

sell the car
