My Xterra has been leaking air from the rear driver side tire. At first I thought it was the tire. After inspection the tire was fine, but a fitting or something on the tire pressure monitor was leaking. This is a system where the vehicle will warn you when tire pressure is low. In my case the system is CAUSING my tire to be low.
