2022 VOLKSWAGEN ID.4 wheel bolts

come loose, leading to a loss of control of
the v
ehicle, causing accidents and serious
injuries.
x Never drive if wheel bolts are missing or
loose.
x Always use wheel bolts that match the
wheel rims and the vehicle type.
x Always tighten the wheel bolts with the
correct tightening torque. If you do not
have a torque wrench, tighten the wheel
bolts with the wheel bolt wrench and
have the torque checked without delay
by the nearest qualified workshop. Handling wheels and tyres

or rotating
wheels when all wheels have the same tyre and
rim sizes.
The wheels and tyres approved by Volkswa-
gen have been carefully selected.
Rotating wheels when all wheels have the
same tyre and rim sizes
If all wheels have the same tyre and rim sizes,
it is recommended to regularly rotate the
wheels in accordance with the diagram

WARNING
Wheels must have the necessary clearance.
If the wheels do not ha ve the necessary
clearance, the tyre could rub on parts of
the running gear, the vehicle body and the
brake lines. This can lead to a fault in the
brake system and to tread separation and
thus to a tyre bursting.
x The actual tyre size must not exceed the
tyre dimensions of manufacturers ap-
proved by Volkswagen and must not rub
on any vehicle body parts. NOTICE
Avoid heavy impacts and drive round obsta-
cles whene
ver possible. Tyres can be de-
formed in particular by potholes and kerb
edges. This can cause damage to the tyres
and wheel rims. NOTICE
Do not damage the valves when fitting dif-
f
erent tyres. Never drive without valve caps.
This could cause damage to the valves. Old tyres should be disposed of prop-
erly and as required by legislation.
If the spare tyre is not the same as the
tyres that are mounted on the car - f

or
example in the case of winter tyres or a tem-
porary spare wheel - only use the spare tyre
in the event of a breakdown for a short peri-
od of time and drive with extra care. Refit the
normal road wheel as soon as possible.
Volkswagen-approved tyres are guar-
anteed to have the dimensions that are
suitable for the vehicle. In the case of other
tyres, the tyre seller must provide a certifi-
cate from the tyre manufacturer stating that
the tyre is also suitable for the vehicle. This
certificate must be stored in a safe place in
the vehicle. Wheel rims and wheel bolts
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 328.
Wheel rims, tyres and wheel bolts are match-
ed to the v

ehicle type. If different wheel rims
are fitted, the correct wheel bolts with the
correct length and correctly shaped bolt
heads must be used. This ensures that the
brakes work properly and that the vehicle
drives quietly and safely.
For technical reasons, it is not generally pos-
sible to use the wheel rims from other vehi-
cles. This can also apply to wheel rims of the
same vehicle type.
The tightening torque of the wheel bolts
must be checked regularly with a properly
functioning torque wrench.
