Minor Repairs 259
If a wheel needs to be changed, the procedure described below must be adhered to exactly, as otherwise the wheel may loosen, resulting in damage. Porsche cannot be held liable if this happens.To achieve the high tightening torque required for the central bolt, a suitable, commercially available 443 ftlb. (600 Nm) torque wrench must be used. Alternatively, a corresponding tool with torque multiplier (part no. 997.450.323.90) is available from Porsche Motorsport. When a torque multiplier is used, the torque must be reduced in accordance with the tool’s operating instructions.
When loosening and fastening the wheel, a second person is needed to prevent the wheel from turning by firmly braking it.
The high mounting forces involved can cause the vehicle to roll away and slip off the jack.fAlways use a lifting platform if there is one available.
Risk of damage due to vehicle tipping over or falling off lifting equipment or using the wrong tool.
The high mounting forces involved can cause the vehicle to roll away and slip off the jack. An impact wrench can damage the central lock.fAlways use a lifting platform if there is one available.fDo not use an impact wrench .
1. Apply the electric parking brake, move the PDK selector lever to position P and remove the key from the ignition.2. Secure the vehicle carefully in both directions to prevent it from rolling away, e.g. using wedges at the wheels on the opposite side.This is particularly important on slopes.3. Raise the vehicle until the wheel lifts off the ground. Lift the vehicle only at the specified jacking points.fPlease see the chapter “RAISING THE VEHICLE WITH A LIFTING PLATFORM, TROLLEY JACK OR STANDARD JACK” on page 254.
Information
The vehicle must not be standing on the wheel to be secured during fitting.
4. Open the luggage compartment and lift the plastic cover A. Please see the chapter “TIRE FILLING COMPRESSOR” on page 198.Open the receptacle B and remove the polygon tool.The central bolt must only be opened using this original polygon tool.

Filling in tire sealant
The tire sealant can be found in the right-hand box in the luggage compartment. The compressor is located under the cover in the luggage compartment.
The tire sealant can be used to seal small cuts, especially in the tire tread.
Sealing the tire with the tire sealant is only an emergency solution so you can drive to the nearest workshop. Even if the tire is air-tight, it may only be used for short journeys in an emergency.
The tire sealant set comprises: – a filler bottle– a filler hose– a valve turner– a spare valve insert– a sticker with the maximum permitted speed– a compressor– operating instructions
Always observe the following points:fUse the tire sealant only in the case of cuts or punctures no larger than 0.15 in. (4 mm).fNever use the tire sealant if the rim is damaged.
The sealant is highly flammable and harmful to health.fFire, naked flame and smoking are prohibited when handling tire sealant.fAvoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing due to caustic chemical properties of the tire sealant.fKeep tire sealant away from children.fDo not inhale vapors, due to the consequent harm to personal health resulting in serious personal injury or death.
In the event of contact with sealant:
fIf sealant gets on your skin or into your eyes, thoroughly rinse the affected part of your body immediately with plenty of water.fChange soiled clothing immediately.fSee a doctor immediately in the event of an allergic reaction.fIf sealant is swallowed, thoroughly rinse out the mouth without delay and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting.See a doctor immediately.
