Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame near the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; 2. Raise the jack until it supports (not lifts) the car, the jack should be positioned under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; 3. Remove the hub cover, loosen the nuts counterclockwise; 4. Pump or turn the jack to lift the tire off the ground, raising it enough to remove the flat tire and replace it with the spare tire; 5. Loosen all nuts, turning them counterclockwise until they come off; 6. Remove the tire; 7. Place the spare tire on the hub, aligning the spare tire rim with the wheel bolts, then install the lug nuts; 8. Tighten all nuts; 9. Lower the car and remove the jack.

I've been driving for many years and am quite familiar with changing spare tires. The tools for the Tiguan L are under the trunk mat, including a jack, wrench, and spare tire. If you encounter a flat tire while driving, first find a flat spot to park safely, engage the handbrake, turn on the hazard lights, and place the warning triangle—safety comes first. Take out the tools, use the wrench to loosen the bolts on the old tire, but don't remove them completely—just loosen them half a turn. Then, position the jack under the marked points on the vehicle's steel frame, usually near the wheel, and slowly raise it until the tire is off the ground. Remove the bolts and the old tire, then put on the spare tire, hand-tightening the bolts first. Lower the jack to let the car settle, then use the wrench to tighten the bolts diagonally to ensure they're secure. Remember, the spare tire's pressure shouldn't be too high or too low, check that the tools are intact, and drive slowly to the repair shop. Every time I finish this, I feel reassured—after all, the car is my treasure.
When I first started driving, changing a spare tire was a chaotic experience. Now I'll share some tips to help you avoid detours. Park the car, turn off the engine, activate hazard lights, and place warning triangles; lift the trunk mat to find the tools: jack and tire wrench, make sure the spare tire is properly inflated; use the wrench to slightly loosen (but not remove) the four bolts on the old tire; position the jack correctly at the designated chassis point and slowly raise it until the tire is off the ground; completely remove the bolts and take off the old tire; install the spare tire, first hand-tighten the bolts; lower the jack to let the car settle; finally, use the wrench to cross-tighten the bolts diagonally for stability. Don't rush the process—remembering tool locations in advance saves effort. After changing, drive slowly to a repair shop. With a few practices, you'll master tire changes, but safety always comes first.
As a car enthusiast, I know the importance of using tools precisely. Locate the jack points by checking the markings under the car to avoid damage; match the wrench size to the bolts; inspect tools for rust after use. Steps: Park safely, loosen bolts, lift the car, change the tire, tighten bolts diagonally, then lower the jack. Don't rely on the spare tire for long—repair the original tire promptly. Maintain your tools well for emergency readiness.
