WARNING
Changing a wheel, especially on the side of the road, can be
dangerous. To help reduce the risk of serious personal injury:
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.
Always make sure that all passengers, especially children,
are in a safe place outside the vehicle and away from the vehi-
cle and traffic (such as behind a guard rail).
Turn on the emergency flashers and set up another warning
device about 25 yards (25 meters) behind the vehicle to warn
approaching traffic.
Change a wheel by yourself only if you are familiar with the
necessary steps. Otherwise, get expert assistance.
Always switch the engine off, set the electronic parking
brake, and shift the transmission into Park (P) (automatic
transmission) or any gear (manual only) to help prevent the ve-
hicle from moving suddenly and slipping off the jack.
Always make sure that the ground is level and firm. If neces-
sary, place the jack on a large and sturdy board or on a similar
ground support.
Always block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel being
changed with chocks or other similar things.
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 uninten-
tionally.
Always use proper and undamaged tools when changing a
wheel.
Once a wheel is lifted off the ground, having the transmission
in Park (P) or in gear will not prevent sudden vehicle move-
ment.
Always use a jack that has been approved by the manufac-
turer for your vehicle. Never use other jacks, even if they have
been approved for use on other Volkswagen models.
To reduce the risk of losing control, crashes, and serious
personal injuries, never loosen the screws on rims with thread-
ed rim rings.

2. Switch off the engine. Automatic transmission: shift the transmis-
sion into Park (P)) ⇒  Automatic transmission: Selector lever. Man-
ual transmission only: shift into a gear ⇒  Manual transmission:
Gearshift lever. Then set the electronic parking brake ⇒ Braking
and parking to help prevent the vehicle from moving.
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. Find the jack lift point ⇒ fig. 191 on the vehicle frame that is closest
to the wheel to be changed.
8. Crank up the jack so that it still just fits underneath the lift point.
9. Position the jack so that its base is directly underneath the lift point
⇒ fig. 192, making sure that the entire base of the jack rests se-
curely on the ground.
10. Align the jack and wind up the jack claw at the same time, until
the claw cradles the vertical rib underneath the vehicle ⇒ fig. 192.
11. Continue cranking up the jack until the wheel is just a little off
the ground.

The vehicle may only be lifted by a jack positioned at one of the four
jack lift points ⇒ .

ing steps in the order listed ⇒ .

carefully in the direction of the arrow ⇒ fig. 193. Secure the cover
panel with the retaining strap.
9. Crank up the vehicle jack so that it still just fits underneath the lift

securely on the ground.
11. Align the jack and wind up the jack claw at the same time, until
the claw cradles the vertical rib underneath the vehicle ⇒ fig. 194.
12. Continue raising the vehicle jack until the wheel is lifted off the
ground.

Screw in the wheel bolts clockwise and tighten them slightly using
the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver handle.
Lower the vehicle with the jack.
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.
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 per-
sonal injury.
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.
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 compact spare wheel can cause loss of vehi-
cle control, a crash or other accident, and serious personal in-
jury.
Never use a compact spare wheel if it is damaged or worn
down to the wear indicators.
Never drive faster than 50 mph (80 km/h) with a compact
spare wheel. Avoid full-throttle acceleration, heavy braking, and
fast cornering!
Never drive more than 125 miles (200 km) with a compact
spare wheel that is installed on the front axle (drive axle).
Replace the compact spare with a normal wheel and tire as
soon as possible. Compact spare tires are designed for brief
use only.
