## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING THE AIRCRAFT PUSHBACK, IT WAS NOTED ON THE ECAM THAT NR 8 MAIN WHEEL WAS LOOSING PRESSURE. AFTER RETURNING TO THE GATE, IT WAS CONFIRMED USING A REGULAR TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE THAT THE PRESSURE WAS DROPPING. USING LEAK DETECTOR FLUID, IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE LEAKING FROM A CRACK BETWEEN TWO TIE BOLTS IN THE OUTER HUB SECTION. WHEEL WAS REPLACED AND ROUTED TO THE REPAIR SHOP FOR INVESTIGATION.  (TC NR  20060822002)
