In March, i went from a 190 Diesel to a TFsi40 Petrol Avant Black edition. I got a very good deal on ite but I must admit I was a little irritated at some of the blatent cost cutting that took place. The missing Spare wheel was one of them, I figured I will buy one to keep in the garage. Since the start of the Zombie Apocalypse I have not done any long trips so I forgot about this...until Thursday.
The MMI complained about tyre pressure loss so a quick walk around showed a screw with washer... embedded int he tyre, losing air but not at an alarming rate, the car came with tyre insurance.. so Kwik Krap ordered the tyre for next day.. I turn up and lo and behold it is a different Pirelli the tyre fitter helpfully suggested its the same size so what the problem... They reorder the tyre and it gets fitted, This afternoon I see another MMI warning on another rear and lo and behold that has a gash in the sidewall....
I have searched through the threads and can see I need three/four parts
Bracket 8W0802715C
Nut 8W0803899
Wheel 8W0601027c
Does that look right? If anybody has done this could they cjeck that I am right? I have not managed to find a part number for the tool Tray that I will now need so any part number or model that I could accquire one from in a breakers would be gratefully appreciated. Two scrap tyres in less then 4000 miles...
