Years ago I had the same issue with my Dad's car. Exactly the same outcome at a tyre fitter, I just didn't bother going back and just pumped the tyre every time....
My current car takes a week to lose air via a slow puncture. Goes from 32 psi to about 15 in that time. Again I just pump every time I drive it as it's an excuse to check tyre pressure. I only drive once a week. I'm likely due new tyres semi soon so will address it properly then.
Just came back from there, they took it off and checked, there was a screw inside it probably 50mm long, now im wondering… did i get that screw in the same tyre within those two to three days or did they not check it the first time properly or if they put it in there…
The tyre needs to come off and they paint sealant on the contact point where the wheel meets the tyre. If the alloys are old,you also need to clean up any flaking paint.

Hmm ok, I might just get that one tyre changed, i’ll go back and address it.
It could be the actual tyre valve is leaking? Could just need a new valve?
