Introduction

Only change the wheel yourself if the vehicle is parked securely, you are familiar with the safety precautions and the necessary procedures and you have the necessary tools. Some vehicles are delivered from the factory without a vehicle jack and lug wrench. In such cases, have the wheel changed by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

The vehicle jack supplied by the factory is only designed for changing one wheel that has a damaged tire and must be replaced. If both tires on one side of the vehicle, both tires on one axle, or all tires are damaged, contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility for assistance. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.

You must carry out the following steps to change a wheel.

1. Prepare the vehicle for the wheel change (→ Wheel change).

2. Remove the wheel hub cover or wheel bolt caps (→ Wheel covers) (→ Hubcap) (→ Wheel bolt caps).

3. Loosen the wheel bolts (→ Wheel bolts).

4. Jack up the car (→ Vehicle jack).

5. Remove the damaged wheel and fit the spare wheel, collapsible spare wheel or compact spare wheel (→ Wheels and tires).

WARNING

It can be dangerous to change a wheel at the roadside.

If the vehicle and work area are not secured properly, serious accidents and fatal injuries may occur.

  • Only carry out the wheel change yourself if you are familiar with the necessary steps. Instead, seek assistance from an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility. Volkswagen recommends contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
  • Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
  • Park the vehicle a safe distance from moving traffic.
  • To reduce the risk of the vehicle moving unintentionally, always deactivate the vehicle's drive system and switch the ignition off (→ Parking).
  • Move all passengers, particularly children, to a safe distance away from the working area on the side facing away from moving traffic.
  • Switch on the emergency flashers to warn other road users and set up the warning triangle.
  • Only jack up the vehicle on level, firm ground. Sloped or soft ground can cause the vehicle to slip off the jack. If necessary, place a large, stable surface under the jack.
  • If you are on a slippery surface such as tile, place a non-slippery object such as a rubber mat on the ground to prevent the jack from slipping.
  • Only use suitable and undamaged tools for wheel changes.
  • After changing a wheel, immediately check the tightening torque of the wheel bolts with an undamaged torque wrench that is functioning correctly.
  • If your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, you must recalibrate the system immediately after a wheel is changed (→ Tire Pressure Monitoring System).
