Continental 17120420000 Contimobility Kit

Product Information

There is little risk of the subsequent patch/plug not bonding to the inside of the tire, IF IT IS CLEANED PROPERLY. (water...water...water...) and buffed properly. asimba2 wrote:Just FYI, the Continental Mobility kit that comes with the car states this warning about using the tire sealant: You may also find that some garages are reluctant to fix tyres where puncture sealant has been used. This is because it can be messy stuff to deal with. However, there’s no technical reason why a tyre shouldn’t be repaired (assuming it’s legal to do so) if gel like this has been used. Should you take the tyre to be repaired, just make sure you mention to the technician that a sealant has been pumped in. Having the Continental Conti Mobility Kit on board will mean that you will no longer require a spare wheel and tyre, so saving you up to 18kg weight and saving you much needed boot space. The Dimensions for the Continental Conti-Mobility Kit are: 180 x 249 x 95 mm, and only 2.3kg in weight.

There is NOTHING in the Continental sealant kit that will damage the tire. It's simply a watered-down latex product, is not caustic. It flows into the hole, temporarily plugging it. Tyre inflation kits combine a bottle of puncture-sealing adhesive gel with a compressor. You plug the bottle of mousse into the compressor which in turn plugs into the cigarette lighter or 12-volt outlet. This then pumps air and the gel into the tyre through the valve. As the air is pumped in it forces the gel to the outside of the tyre where it fills the hole that’s letting the air out. The whole process should take about 10 minutes. At least that’s the theory. Do mobility kits work?Thank you for your very complete list of needed items... Finally someone who is practical and can find solutions that don't cost a fortune... At this point, all you need is to used the electric portable air compressor (I got an amazing one at Costco). You plug it into the car cigarette lighter plug, start the car, and connect it to the tire valve. Let it pump up the tire until it is up to pressure. If the tire is not hissing, the tire is totally drive-able. No, the Acura tire sealant and inflator kit sealant will not affect the TPMS sensors or system in the vehicle (other sealants may, however). If the tire is repaired after using the supplied sealant, the sealant should be flushed from the TPMS sensor using cool water." We’re supporting Highways England’s ‘Go Left’ campaign. If you break down on the motorway, remember to go left. The ONLY issue with using the Conti Mobility Kit is the inconvenience of clean-up prior to plugging/patching. The consumer is trading the CONVENIENCE of an emergency repair with the INCONVENIENCE of clean-up.

They are a different chemistry. We should avoid calling the Conti sealant "Slime". I would like to propose the following, because not all flats are the same... You do not always have to repair the tire or do any physical labor right at the scene of the flat "crime". When using the Conti Mobility kit, you should pressurize the tire as high as possible, perhaps 40psi. Sealant WILL blow out of the hole. Driving 3-5 miles, at 30-40mph, will cause the sealant to solidify in the hole (air pressure plus friction) and the "hissing" will stop. If it DOESN'T stop hissing, the hole is too big , and in fact, you'll see that the PSI won't go anywhere near 40psi. The reason car makers include these mobility kits is they save weight and don’t take up valuable space. In modern cars, particularly electric vehicles, space is at a premium. And the area where the spare wheel once lived is often taken up with the battery or electronics. You’ll still need your alloy wheel key
