Can you get the wheel off and take it to Kwik fit or your local garage, they'll sort it. It sounds like the valve has broken (think that's what you call it?!) It shouldn't make any difference to your spare wheel though, just that one. Might be an idea to get each and every one checked out before you use it though in case they have all perished at the same time.

That shouldn't effect the spare, but you will need to get them changed over today so you can get your tyre repaired for tomorrow. Do the AA do that? If you set off without a spare tomorrow you can just imagine what will happen...

Good luck!

There is nothing you can do to stop the hissing so stop panicking over it.

Get the wheel changed for the spare and take the wheel with the problem to your local garage (kwik fit, ATS or JOe Blogg's local down the road) to have it sorted, might need a new tyre, might be able to fix the valve seal. Probably going to cost £40 ish for a new tyre.

It's not the end of the world and easily remedied. Good luck.

Arrr I see, I hadn't realised you were only 17. If I was 17 and I thought I had "broken" the trailer and would face my mum's wrath I'd have reacted in more of a panic than you did

Glad you've got it sorted and good luck tomorrow x
