How to remove the bolt caps and wheel covers on a Volkswagen car

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Wheel

In this video, we can see how to remove the bolt caps and wheel covers on a Volkswagen car: these caps, in addition to having an aesthetic purpose, also serve to protect them from potential damage. The cars are also equipped with wheel covers that need to be removed to access the wheel bolts; in the tool kit found in the trunk, there is a metal pin with a loop, which is a tool for removing the wheel bolt covers, inserting the end into the hook of the hole in the center of the cover and pulling. By doing this, the covers will not be damaged while, for example, changing a tire. To put it back on, make sure the valve stem is aligned with the invitation hole on the wheel cover, and press firmly to fully engage it with the hub.

We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
