Changing a wheel
Warning!
Risk of serious personal injury or death. The
car may slip off the jack.
f Make sure that no one is in the vehicle when
jacking up and changing a wheel.
f Always place the car on stable supports if work
has to be carried out under the car.
Risk of damage to the brake discs of the
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB).
f Always screw in both assembly aids when changing a wheel.
Note
The tools required for changing a wheel (e.g. jack,
wheel bolt wrench, assembly aids) are not sup-
plied with the car.
Your authorized Porsche dealer will be pleased to
advise you.
1. Apply the handbrake fully and engage 1st gear or PDK selector-lever position P and remove
the ignition key.
2. Switch on the hazard warning lights if neces- sary.
3. Secure the car against rolling away, e.g. by
means of wedges under the wheels on the op-
posite side.
This is particularly important on slopes. 4. Slightly slacken the whee
l bolts of the wheel to
be changed.
5. Lift the car only at the specified jacking points.
6. Raise the car until the wheel lifts off the ground.
Please see the chapter “LIFTING THE VEHICLE
WITH A LIFTING PLATFORM OR GARAGE LIFT”
on Page 232.
7. Remove 1 or 2 wheel bolts (see respective illustration).
8. Screw in assembly aids instead of the wheel bolts.
Screw in assembly aid for cars without Porsche Ceramic
Composite Brake9. Remove the remaining wheel bolts.
Note on operation
f To remove or mount the spacers:
Please see the chapter “SPACERS” on

Practical Tips, Emergency Service
Screw in two assembly aids for cars with Porsche
Ceramic Composite Brake10.Take the wheel off and put a new wheel on.
Please see the chapter “WHEEL BOLTS” on
Page 226.
11.Insert wheel bolts and tighten by hand.
12.Remove assembly aids, screw in remaining wheel bolts.
Initially tighten bolts only slightly in diagonally
opposite sequence so that the wheel
is centred.
13.Inflate the tire if necessary. Please see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE FOR
COLD TIRES (68 °F/ 20 °C)” on Page 267.
14.Lower the car fully and remove the jack.
15.Tighten wheel bolts in diagonally opposite sequence.
f Immediately after changing a wheel, use
a torque wrench to check the prescribed
tightening torque (96 ftlb./130 Nm).
Note on operation for vehicles with
Tire Pressure Monitoring
f On vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring, the
settings on the on-board computer must be
updated after the wheel change.
f Please see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE FOR
COLD TIRES (68 °F/ 20 °C)” on Page 267.
Checking tire pressure with a
pressure gage1. Remove the valve stem cap from the tire.
2. Press the pressure gage onto the valve stem.
Note on operation
fDo not press too hard or force the valve stem
sideways, or air will escape.
If the sound of air escaping from the tire is
heard, reposition the pressure gage.
3. Read the tire pressure on the gage stem and compare it to the permissble tire pressure.
This information can be found on the tire pres-
sure plate or in the chapter Technical Data.
Please see the chapter “TIRE PRESSURE FOR
COLD TIRES (68 °F/ 20 °C)” on Page 267.
4. Remove the pressure gage.
f Please see the chapter “TPM TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING” on Page 151.

Flat Tire
Warning!
Failure to follow these instructions may result
in serious personal injury to you or to by-
standers.
f If you have a flat tire, move a safe distance off
the road. Turn the emergency flasher on and
use other warning devices to alert other motor-
ists. Set the parking brake.
f Do not park your vehicl e where it may contact
dry grass, brush or other flammable materials.
The hot parts of the exhaust system could set
such materials on fire, thereby causing both
property damage and serious personal injury or death.
A tire sealant and compressor with pressure
tester are located in the luggage compartment.
f Please observe the safety and operating in-
structions on the special sealant bottle with a
special Porsche part number and on the com-
pressor – these are essential. Important note
Sealing the tire with the tire repair kit is only
an emergency repair. Even with the tire air-
tight, it may be used only for short journeys
in an emergency.
The maximum permitted speed is 50 mph
(80 km/h).
f
Do not use commercially available sealant or
tire inflating bottles.
Use only the tire sealant located in the luggage
compartment.
Warning!
Risk of accident, resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
f Have tires replaced by a specialist workshop
as soon as possible.
f Avoid hard acceleration and high cornering speeds.

removed to mount an emergency spare wheel.
Fitting snow chains
The use of snow chains is not permitted when
5 mm spacers are mounted.
Caution!
Risk of damage to the wheel housings if the
5 mm spacers are not removed before fitting
snow chains.
f To permit the fitting of snow chains, have the 5 mm spacers removed on all 4 wheels.Note on operation

3. Fasten the brake disc with the short M6x12
countersunk screws, part No.:
900.269.047.09.
Tightening torque 7.5 ftlb. (10 Nm) .
4. For wheel mounting without a spacer, 5 mm
shorter wheel bolts (part No.:
997.361.203.01 ) must be used.
Tightening torque: 96 ftlb. (130 Nm) .
