WARNING
Changing a wheel, especially on the side of the road, can be dangerous. To help reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
x Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. Move the vehicle a safe distance off the road where it is safe to change the wheel.
x Always make sure that all passengers, especially children, are in a safe place outside the vehicle and away from the vehicle and traffic (such as behind a guard rail).
x Turn on the emergency flasher and set up another warning device about 25 yards (25 meters) behind the vehicle to warn approaching traffic.
x Change a wheel by yourself only if you are familiar with the necessary steps. Otherwise, get expert assistance.
x Always switch the engine off, firmly apply the parking brake, and shift the transmission into Park (P) (automatic transmission) or any gear (manual only) to help prevent the vehicle from moving suddenly and slipping off the jack.
x Always make sure that the ground is level and firm. If necessary, place the jack or a large and sturdy board or on a similar ground support.
x Always block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel being changed with chocks or similar things.
x If you are towing a trailer, always unhitch it from your vehicle before starting to change the wheel. Always apply the trailer brakes firmly and make sure the trailer cannot move unintentionally.
x Always use proper and undamaged tools when changing a tire.
x Once a wheel is lifted off the ground, having the transmission in Park (P) or in gear will not prevent sudden vehicle movement.
x Always use a jack that has been approved by the manufacturer for your vehicle. Never use other jacks, even if they have been approved for use on other Volkswagen models.
x To reduce the risk of losing control, crashes, and serious personal injuries, never loosen the screws on rims with threaded rim rings.
x After changing a wheel, have the wheel bolt tightening torque checked with an accurate torque wrench.
Preparations for changing a wheel

2. Switch off the engine, shift the transmission into Park (P) ⇒ Shifting. Then apply the parking brake
to help prevent the vehicle from moving ⇒ Braking and parking.
3. If towing a trailer: Unhitch the trailer from the vehicle and park the trailer properly.
4. Straighten the steering wheel so that the front wheels point straight forward.
5. Block the diagonally opposite wheel with chocks or other suitable things.
6. Loosen the wheel bolts of the wheel to be changed ⇒ Wheel bolts.
7. Remove the scissors jack and tools from the vehicle.
8. Inset the extension ⇒ fig. 323 (A) into the scissors jack (B) Attach the crank (C) to the extension (A).
9. Find the jack lift point on the vehicle frame that is closest to the wheel to be changed.
10. Crank up the jack so that it still just fits underneath the lift point.
11. Position the jack so that its base is directly underneath the lift point ⇒ fig. 324, making sure that the entire base of the jack rests securely on the ground.
12. Align the jack and wind up the jack claw at the same time, until the claw cradles the rib underneath the vehicle A or B.
13. Continue cranking up the jack until the wheel is just a little off the ground.
WARNING
Using the wrong jack to raise a vehicle with side steps, extended door sills, additional decorative trim or other enhancements in the area of the lower side sills can cause the vehicle to fall off the jack and result in serious personal injury.
x Never use the standard jack supplied with unmodified vehicles to raise the vehicle. The side step can interfere with the jack when raising the vehicle.
x Always use the scissor vehicle jack supplied with the authorized side step package when the vehicle must be jacked up, for example, to change a tire.

Removing the wheel
x Review the checklist ⇒ Preparations for changing a wheel.
x Loosen the wheel bolts ⇒ Wheel bolts.
x Lift the vehicle ⇒ Lifting the vehicle with the vehicle jack.

⇒ fig. 317 place it on a clean surface.
x Screw the mounting pin in the vehicle tool kit into the empty hole by hand ⇒ fig. 325.
x Remove the remaining wheel bolts using the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver handle
⇒ fig. 317 and place them on a clean surface.
x Remove the wheel.
Mounting spare tire or collapsible spare tire
If the tire is a unidirectional tire, be sure to install it in the proper rolling direction ⇒ Unidirectional tires.
x Put the spare tire or collapsible spare tire into place on the vehicle.
x Screw in all wheel bolts clockwise and tighten them slightly using the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver handle.
x Unscrew the mounting pin and screw in the last wheel bolt.
x Lower the vehicle with the jack.
x Use the lug wrench to firmly tighten all wheel bolts (turn clockwise) ⇒ . Do not tighten them in sequence! Tighten any wheel bolt to begin, then tighten the wheel bolt diagonally opposite the first bolt, and so forth.
x Install the wheel bolt caps, center wheel hubcap, or wheel cover, if any ⇒ Wheel trim.
WARNING
Wheel bolts that are tightened or installed improperly can come loose, causing loss of vehicle control, a crash, and serious personal injury.
x Always keep wheel bolts and threads in the wheel hub clean and free of oil and grease. The wheel bolts must turn easily and must be tightened with the right torque.
x Use the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver handle only to turn the wheel bolts when they are loose, never to loosen them or tighten them firmly.
WARNING
Improper use of a collapsible spare tire can cause loss of vehicle control, a crash or other accident, and serious personal injury.
x Never use a collapsible spare tire if it is damaged or worn down to the wear indicators.
x Never drive faster than 50 mph (80 km/h) with a collapsible spare tire. Avoid full-throttle acceleration, heavy braking, and fast cornering!
x Never drive more than 125 miles (200 km) with a 16" collapsible spare wheel that is installed on the front axle (drive axle).

x Vigorously shake the tire inflation cylinder ⇒ fig. 326 (10) a few times back and forth.
x Tightly screw the filling hose ⇒ fig. 326 (3) to the tire inflation bottle (turn clockwise). The foil on the seal is automatically pierced.
x Remove the sealing plug from the filling hose ⇒ fig. 326 (3) and slide the open end onto the tire valve.
x Hold the cylinder with the bottom pointing up and fill the entire contents of the tire inflation cylinder into the tire.
x Detach the empty tire inflation cylinder from the valve.
x Using the valve core wrench ⇒ fig. 326 (1) screw the valve core back into the tire valve.
Inflating the tire
x Screw the tire inflation hose ⇒ fig. 326 (5) of the air compressor tightly to the tire valve.
x Check whether the air release valve ⇒ fig. 326 (7) is screwed on tightly.
x Open the engine hood ⇒ Working in the engine compartment.
x Attach the cable clips ⇒ fig. 326 (9) only to the jump-start terminals in the engine compartment
⇒ fig. 327. The red clip on the compressor cable is connected to the positive (+) terminal; the black clip is connected to the negative terminal (—).
x Start the vehicle engine and let it run.
x Switch the air compressor on using the ON / OFF switch ⇒ fig. 326 (8),
x Let the air compressor run until a pressure of 36 – 44 psi (250 - 300 kPa) is reached ⇒ .
Maximum run time 8 minutes ⇒ .
x Switch off the air compressor.
x If an air pressure of 36 – 44 psi (250 - 300 kPa) cannot be reached, unscrew the tire inflation hose from the tire valve.
x Drive about 30 feet (10 meters) backwards or forwards so that the sealant can be distributed inside the tire.
x Connect the tire inflation hose of the air compressor again to the tire valve and repeat the inflation process.
x If the required tire pressure still cannot be reached, the tire is too badly damaged. The tire cannot
be sealed using the tire mobility set. Do not drive the vehicle. Get professional assistance ⇒ .
x Disconnect the air compressor and unscrew the tire inflation hose from the tire valve.
x If a tire pressure of 36 – 44 psi (250 – 300 kPa) is reached, continue driving right away and drive at a speed of not more than 50 mph (80 km/h).
x Check tire pressure after 10 minutes of driving ⇒ Check after 10 minutes of driving.
WARNING
The tire inflation hose and air compressor can get hot during inflation.
x Protect hands and skin from hot parts.
x Do not place the hot tire inflation hose or hot air compressor on flammable material.
x Let the equipment cool off almost completely before stowing it.
x If the tire cannot be inflated to at least 36 psi (250 kPa), the damage is too great to be repaired with the tire mobility set. The sealant is not able to seal the tire. Do not drive the vehicle. Get professional assistance.
