Changing a wheel
Danger!
Failure to follow these instructions may result
in serious personal inju ry or death to you or
to bystanders.
Before changing the wheel
f If you have a flat tire, move a safe distance off
the road. Turn the emergency flasher on and
use other warning devices to alert other
motorists.
f Do not park your vehicl e where it may contact
dry grass, brush or other flammable materials.
The hot parts of the exhaust system could set
such materials on fire, thereby causing both
property damage and severe or fatal physical
injury.
f Passengers must not be in the vehicle when it
is jacked up.
f Before you change a wheel, be sure the ground
is level and firm. If necessary, use a board
under the jack to ensure that the jack does not
sink into the ground.
f Set the electric parking brake and block the
wheels opposite the flat tire on the other side
of the vehicle.
While operating the jack
f The jack is only to be used for changing a
wheel. Do not use it as a support to work under
the car. f
The car must be jacked up only at the
illustrated jacking points. Lifting at any other
place may damage the vehicle or may result in
personal injury. Never jack the car up by the
body or the bumpers.
f For safety reasons do not use tire inflating
bottles. Do not use co mmercially available
sealant bottles. Use only the tire inflating bottle
located in the luggage compartment.
Note
The tools required for changing a wheel (e.g. jack,
wheel bolt wrench, assembly aids) are not
supplied as standard with the vehicle. Your
authorized Porsche dealer will be pleased to
advise you.
Sequence of operation Warning!
The jack must be used on ly to raise the car
for wheel changing. The jack must never be
used as a support to work underneath the
vehicle. If the jack is accidentally dislodged,
you or bystanders could suffer severe
personal injury.
f Never jack up other ve hicles or other loads
with the jack.
f Always place the car on stable supports if you
have to work under it. When working under the
vehicle, always use safety stands specifically designed for this purpose. f
Please use a suitable knee rest to protect your
clothing against soiling.
1. Activate the electric parking brake and shift into 1st gear or move the PDK selector lever
to position P .
Remove the ignition key or control unit on
vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive.
2. Switch on the emergency flasher if necessary.
3. Secure the vehicle against rolling away, e.g. by means of wedges at the wheels on the
opposite side.
This is particularly important on slopes.
4. Slightly loosen the wheel bolts on the wheel to be changed.
5. Lift the vehicle only at the specified jacking points.
6. Raise the vehicle until the wheel lifts off the ground.
f Please see the chapter “RAISING THE VEHICLE
WITH A LIFTING PLATFORM, TROLLEY JACK
OR STANDARD JACK” on page 290.
7. Remove 1 or 2 wheel bolts (see corresponding figure).
292
Minor Repairs
Screw in one assembly aid on vehicles without PCCB8. Screw in assembly aids instead of wheel bolts.
Caution!
Risk of damage to brake discs.
f Always screw in the assembly aids when changing a wheel.
Screw in two assembly aids on vehicles with PCCB9. Remove the remaining wheel bolts.
10.Take the wheel off and put a new wheel on.
fPlease see the chapter “WHEEL BOLTS” on
page 293.
11.Insert wheel bolts and tighten by hand.
12.Remove assembly aids and screw in remaining wheel bolts.
Initially tighten bolts only slightly in
diagonally opposite sequence so that
the wheel is centerd. 13.Inflate the tire if necessary.
f
Please see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE FOR
COLD TIRES (68 °F/20 °C)” on page 326.
14.Lower the vehicle fully and remove the jack.
15.Tighten wheel bolts in diagonally opposite sequence.
Immediately after changing a wheel, use
a torque wrench to check the prescribed
tightening torque of the wheel bolts
(160 Nm/118 ftlb.).
Note on operation for vehicles with Tire
Pressure Monitoring
f On vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring, the
settings on the multi-function display must be
updated after the wheel change.
f Please see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING (TPM)” on page 127.
