In their latest video tutorial posted on the &#8220;Meyle\u00a0TV&#8221; YouTube channel, the &#8220;Meyle Mechanics&#8221; give a summary of possible tyre damage root causes and demonstrate remedial action.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18086\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Using_the_MEYLE_Joint_Play_Tester_180x120_300dpi.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"453\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Using_the_MEYLE_Joint_Play_Tester_180x120_300dpi.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Using_the_MEYLE_Joint_Play_Tester_180x120_300dpi-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Using_the_MEYLE_Joint_Play_Tester_180x120_300dpi-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tyres are an easily accessible and reliable source of information when troubleshooting vehicle damage. In their latest\u00a0video, the &#8220;Meyle Mechanics&#8221; examine different types of tyre abnormalities and explain where they may come from. Take, for example, unilateral tyre wear. The possible root causes include incorrect axle alignment, local wear of defective shock absorbers or local wear caused by incorrect braking behaviour. The &#8220;Meyle Mechanics&#8221; detail a total of six different damage patterns and then show what respective remedial action to take. These include, for instance, replacing the ABS sensor or the shock absorbers.<\/p>\n<p>The video also shows how to localise and identify defects using the Meyle joint play tester. This multi-functional tool can also be used as a wheel gripper to remove tight wheels. Requiring only a little bit of effort, the Meyle tool is as easy on the rim as it is on repair professionals.<br \/>\nTo watch the new &#8220;Tyre Damage Patterns&#8221; video follow this link:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/k4ppUIrQZNc\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/k4ppUIrQZNc<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tyres are always worth inspecting when troubleshooting vehicle damage.
