Where is the jack located in the Magotan?

[DelMaggie]

The jack of the Magotan is located under the trunk mat, placed together with the spare tire. According to structural characteristics, jacks can be categorized into: rack jacks, screw jacks, and hydraulic jacks. A jack refers to a lightweight lifting device that uses a rigid lifting component as the working device to lift heavy objects within a small stroke through the top support or bottom claw. The Magotan is a mid-size sedan under FAW-Volkswagen, with exterior body dimensions of 4865mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1471mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2871mm. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm.

I've been driving my Magotan for almost ten years, and I remember the location of the jack very clearly—it's under the floor in the trunk. You need to lift the trunk mat, and you'll usually find a dedicated slot or tool kit pouch near the spare tire, where the jack and wrench are stored. I learned my lesson the first time I changed a tire—I was in a hurry during heavy rain and forgot to level the ground, nearly causing the car to slide downhill. Since then, I always use bricks to stabilize the wheels before working. The location isn’t hard to find, but it’s best for beginners to check the user manual diagrams first, as it might be in the left corner or above the spare tire on the right, depending on the model. Regularly applying lubricant to the jack’s threads prevents rust and jamming—after all, this tool is a lifesaver in emergencies. The Magotan’s overall design is quite practical, and getting familiar with its little details can make daily driving much smoother.

As a new owner of the Magotan, I was a bit nervous about finding the jack. I was told it's in the trunk when I bought the car, but it took me several tries to locate it when I first got the car—it's hidden in the compartment under the trunk floor mat, near the left or right spare tire. It's best to lift the mat and feel around for it, just take your time. Before using it, make sure the car is parked on level ground, the handbrake is engaged, and the hazard lights are on to prevent accidents. The first time I changed a tire, I wasn't familiar with the tools and twisted the wrong screw, but luckily nothing was damaged. I recommend practicing removing and installing a small tire first to avoid messing up in a critical situation. Also, the vehicle manual has clear diagrams showing the location, and it's best for beginners to download an electronic version for quick reference. The Magotan's setup is quite thoughtful and not complicated, but it can be a bit confusing at first—just get familiar with it a few times, and it'll become second nature.

I've been following car design for years, and the Magotan's jack placement is quite practical. It's usually located under the floor in the trunk area near the spare tire well—just lift the mat to find a compactly stacked toolkit containing the jack and wrench. The exact position might be in the left groove, varying slightly by model year; for example, the 2018 version hides it under the right-side partition. When using it, make sure to locate the correct chassis support points to avoid damaging the car. Regular maintenance like checking the jack's condition and applying lubricant to prevent rust is crucial. Volkswagen has optimized this module in the Magotan efficiently, with reasonable space utilization, making it safe and easy even for beginners to operate.
