porous wheels?
#9
Believe it or not, the newer the tyre, the quicker they lose pressure as the oxygen can weep out through the tyre (osmosis) leaving the bigger Nitrogen molecules behind. The longer the tyre has been on there and the more you have topped it up, the less oxygen there is to weep out meaning pressure drops are reduced.

My guess is it is a dodgy valve though or valve stem.
