I'm curious if anyone has any thoughts on my single tire, slow pressure leak. I'm on PS4S, with plenty of rubber, and currently run 35 psi on all 4 tires.

Recently, I left my home and was alerted to the front left tire being at single digit PSI. I immediately filled it back to 35 psi, and carefully drove to my destination. I returned home after driving around 20 miles, without an issue, often watching the in cabin PSI meter (no drop). The next morning, as expected, it dropped. However, it was only 25 psi. Again, I reinflated to 35 psi, and drove around 20 miles. Since that time, it has not budged, staying at 35 psi.

I'm planning to have it inspected, and likely patched. However, I'm trying to understand this odd pattern (i.e. holding air now). All other tires are normal. Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks.

Likley just the position the tire is in when parked. Putting more or less pressure on whatever is puncturing your tire

Thanks. I considered this possibility, which is likely the answer.

Update:

So the tire hasn't dropped any more than 2psi, despite several days and miles of driving. Still odd to me that it originally dropped to 6psi in under 24 hours, but hasn't repeated this severe drop since that time.

Update:

I had a tire shop inspect the tire yesterday. They were unable to identify any obvious leaks. However, it was noted that the valve stem had some corrosion. The valve stem was replaced, and everything seems to be holding stable. So, an interesting leak pattern to share. Unless anything changes, I'll conclude these updates.
