gearbox, move the selector lever to D or R with the ignition switched onChanging gear
then apply the handbrake firmly Braking, stopping and parking.
Chock the wheel diagonally opposite using the collapsible chocks or other suitable objects.
Loosen the wheel bolts on the wheel that is being changed Wheel bolts.
Find the jacking point under the vehicle which is closest to the wheel that is being
changed.
Raise the vehicle jack until it just fits under the jacking point of the vehicle.
Ensure that the foot of the jack is resting securely on the ground with its whole surface and
that the foot of the jack is positioned precisely, i.e. vertically beneath the point of
application .
Position the vehicle jack. At the same time, continue to crank the claw up until it is in
position around the vertical rib underneath the vehicle .
Lifting the vehicle with the jack

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The jack may be applied only at the jacking points shown (markings on the body) ⇒ Fig. 154.
Always use the jacking point closest to the wheel you are working on ⇒.
Raise the vehicle using only the designated jacking points.
Checklist
To ensure your own safety and that of your passengers, observe the following actions in the
specified order ⇒:
Incorrectly tightened wheel bolts can loosen while the vehicle is in motion and cause
accidents, serious injury, and loss of control of the vehicle.
•Only use wheel bolts that belong to the wheel.
•Never use different wheel bolts.
•The wheel bolts and threads of the wheel hubs must be clean, free from oil and grease,
and turn easily.
•Always use the box spanner placed in the vehicle at the factory to loosen and tighten the
wheel bolts.
•Only loosen the wheel bolts by approximately one turn before raising the vehicle with the
vehicle jack.
•Never grease or lubricate the wheel bolts or the threads of the wheel hub. This could
cause them to loosen while the vehicle is in motion, even if the required torque setting is
used.
•Never remove the bolts on rims with bolted-on rings.
•If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts is too low, the wheel bolts and rims can loosen
while the vehicle is in motion. The wheel bolts and threads can be damaged if the
tightening torque is too high.
WARNING

Preparation
•Switch off the ignition, the lights and all electrical consumers.
•Open the appropriate fuse box ⇒ Fuses in the vehicle.
Detecting a blown fuse
A melted metal strip indicates that the fuse has blown ⇒ Fig. 160.
Shine a torch onto the fuse. This will help you to spot the blown fuse more easily.
Changing a fuse
•Take the plastic pliers ⇒ Fig. 161① out of the holder if needed. The holder is on the rear side of
the fuse box near the diagnosis connection.
•For small fuses, push on the catch ⇒ Fig. 161① from above ⇒ Fig. 161A.
•For bigger fuses, push the catch ⇒ Fig. 161① onto the fuse from the side ⇒ Fig. 161B.
•Remove the fuse
•If the fuse has blown, replace it with a new fuse of the same amp rating (same colour and same
markings) and same size ⇒.
•Insert the cover again or close the fuse box cover.
•If used, replace the pliers in the holder behind the fuse box.
Changing bulbs
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Information on changing bulbs
⇒ Changing bulbs in the front headlights
⇒ Changing bulbs in the front bumper
⇒ Changing bulbs in the tail light cluster
⇒ Changing the bulb in the number plate light
⇒ Changing bulbs in the side turn signals
Changing the vehicle bulbs requires considerable technical skill. If you do not feel confident with the
procedure, Volkswagen recommends that you have the bulbs changed by a Volkswagen
dealership, or that you seek other expert assistance. Contact a qualified workshop if other vehicle
parts around the lights need to be removed.
You should keep a box with spare light bulbs for the lights that ensure the vehicle is roadworthy in
the vehicle at all times. Spare bulbs are available from Volkswagen dealerships. In some countries
it is a legal requirement to have these spare bulbs in the vehicle.
It may be illegal to drive with a defective bulb in the exterior lighting.
Additional bulb specifications
Some bulbs in headlights or in tail light clusters might have factory specifications that are different
to standard bulbs. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on the base.

You can damage another position in the electrical system by using a fuse with a higher amp
rating.
NOTICE

Park the vehicle on a firm and level surface at a safe distance from the flow of traffic.
Apply the handbrake firmly Braking, stopping and parking.
Turn the light switch to position 0 Lights.
Shift the turn signal lever to neutral Lights.
Automated manual gearbox: move the selector lever to D or R Changing gear.
Stop the engine and remove the vehicle key from the ignition Starting and stopping the
engine.
Manual gearbox: select a gear Changing gear.
Leave the defective bulbs to cool down.
Check to see if a fuse has blown Fuses.
Follow the instructions to change the affected bulb . Always use identical bulbs with the
same designation. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on
the base.
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with unprotected fingers. The heat of the bulb would
cause the fingerprint to evaporate and condense on the reflector. This will impair the
brightness of the headlight.
After changing the bulb, check to ensure that the bulb is working properly. If the bulb is not
working properly, the bulb may not have been inserted properly or may have failed again,
or the connector may have been inserted incorrectly.
Any time you change a bulb in the front of the vehicle, the headlight settings should be
checked by a qualified workshop.
Information on changing bulbs
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Checklist
Always carry out the following actions for changing a bulb in the given order ⇒:
Accidents can occur if roads are not sufficiently illuminated and other road users have
difficulty seeing the vehicle, or cannot see it at all.
WARNING
Changing the bulb incorrectly can cause accidents and serious injuries.
•When working in the engine compartment, always read and observe the safety warnings
⇒ Preparation for working in the engine compartment. The engine compartment of any
motor vehicle is a dangerous area. Serious injuries can be sustained here.
•H4, HB4 and H7 bulbs are pressurised and could explode when they are being changed.
•Only change the defective bulb once it has had time to cool down completely.
•Never change a bulb unless you are familiar with the procedure. If you are uncertain of
what to do, the work should be carried out by a qualified workshop.
•Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with unprotected fingers. When the light is switched
on, heat will cause fingerprints to evaporate on the bulb, which in turn will cause the
reflector to dim.
•There are sharp-edged parts in the headlight housing in the engine compartment and on
the tail light cluster housing. Protect your hands when changing bulbs.
WARNING
Damage to the electrical system could be caused by water entering the system if the rubber
cover on the headlight housing is not properly mounted.
NOTICE
Ignoring any of the items on this important safety checklist can lead to accidents and severe
injuries.
•Always follow the instructions in the checklist and observe the general safety procedures.
WARNING
Always take care when removing or fitting lights to prevent damage to the paintwork or to
other vehicle parts.
