How to Fix a Locked Rear Wheel on a Polo?

First, drive forward and backward three times, but avoid making the movements too large. Otherwise, the brake pads and brake drum may not separate, causing the tire to be forcibly dragged and wear out. Pour 100°C boiling water between the brake pads and brake drum. The thermal expansion might cause them to separate automatically, and then you can try the above method again. Gently tap both sides—this might help separate them. If that doesn't work, you can kick the tire a few times, which might also help.
