How to Remove the Spare Wheel on a Volkswagen Sharan

Model: Volkswagen Sharan MK 1, 7M - Years 1995-2010
Part: Wheel

Open the boot and lift the latch of the small movable section of the lower mat, as clearly shown in the video. Underneath, you will notice a bolt that needs to be undone to free the spare wheel. As you unscrew this bolt, the wheel will drop from its housing. Once it is on the ground, disconnect the attachment and you're done. This is a very simple operation and within everyone's reach. Loosen the bolts of the mounted wheel and lift the vehicle, then completely remove the wheel in question and fit the spare.
