How to Change a Tyre on a Volkswagen

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Wheel

Having a spare wheel to replace the tyre (in this case, not just 'punctured' but with a significant cut that the repair kit couldn't fix) is a luxury these days. Watch as the YouTuber replaces it in a few steps: loosen the nuts with the car on the ground, lift the car at the correct point, remove the wheel, and fit the spare wheel. Then lower the car and tighten the nuts securely, tightening them in a criss-cross pattern to ensure they are properly secured. Check the pressure and remember that with the spare wheel, you should not exceed 50 mph and can only travel up to 124 miles: just enough time to exit the motorway and reach a tyre shop.

After opening the casing halfway, first position the key, then the spring housing, and finally insert the spring into the previously mentioned housing.
