Replacement of the Rear Wiper Blade on Volkswagen Polo and Golf

Model: Volkswagen Polo MK IV, Polo IV, Polo 4, MK 4, 9N - Years 2001-2009
Part: Windshield wipers

Lift the wiper arm off the glass and remove the blade by simply disengaging it with force. Rest it back on the rear windscreen, taking care not to scratch the glass. Unscrew the large 13 mm nut that secures the wiper arm and remove it along with the washer. If you have a puller as shown in the video, place the central part of the tool on the wiper spindle and extract it after careful adjustment. If you do not have one, you can use any method or tool for the operation, which is not that simple. I recommend using a large pair of pliers that have a grip adjacent to the arm in question.

Where is the Spare Wheel in the Peugeot 5008?

This video shows where the spare wheel is located in the Peugeot 5008 and how to access it, useful in case of a puncture. As shown, the wheel is not in the usual boot compartment but underneath it, outside the vehicle. To free the wheel, first gather the tools provided, then open the boot, locate the small indicated hatch, and open it. Next, loosen the bolt just released using the large socket wrench enough to lower the wheel to the ground.
