Spare wheel pressure check 2018 boxer
Is it possible to check the spare wheel pressure on a 2018 Warwick Duo without removing the wheel or crawling under the van ?
I thought there was a remote value accessible from the rear of the van but I cannot locate it, can't see anything in the manual. Does one exist, if so where is it located ?
Cheers Geoff

On my 2014 Boxer there's a valve just underneath the right hand corner of the rear bumper.

I think you will find a "SpareLine" they are fitted on panel vans its as described by andyh if you cant see it, have a mooch round starting with the spares valve and see if there is a tub fitted and follow the tube to the side or rear of the van

Checked mine a few days ago AND very pleased I did. The remote pipe for pressure checking was seized on the wheel valve and the valve rubber was completely perished. Could not have used the spare in an emergency. Peter M

Thanks everyone for your helpful comments.
I have now located the value, it's exactly as the picture posted by andyh, thanks andyh. It was much easier checking after the heavy rain stopped.
Regards Geoff

When I recently had all 5 tyres changed, the chap said that the spare extension tube talked about in above posts was not sealing and letting out air, which might explain why my spare was going flat. He left it lightly connected, so you may find you are unable to check spare using the valve under the bumper, or it could just be on my van.

Interesting, our spare also went flat after having all 5 tyres changed. I suspected the extension tube was the culprit and disconnected it from the spare. All seems fine since.

My extension tube was mangled by the dealer during a routine service. They unscrewed it from the spare to read its pressure (not being aware of the remote valve) and cross-threaded it when reconnecting the tubing; somehow they also severed the rubber tube. I've since jettisoned the extension, and crawl underneath a few times a year to check the spare. Today, being sunny, was one of those days. Pressure was fine.
