Changing wheels

DanDM · 11-29-2014, 04:51 AM

My car is currently having a little work done so I can't check, but I presume there's no jack due to the rtf tyres? I'll be changing over to my winter wheels when I get it back - if no jack in the boot presumably there's an obvious point I can safely use my trolley jack?

Yep no jack. There are rectangular plastic jacking points, and you can get adapters from ebay so you don't damage them with a trolley jack. I had bought one, but i lost it when i moved house so couldn't use it, not too worried as my car is only leased though.
