First you must remove the plastic caps from the off the actual lug nuts, there is a tool for this in the tire kit it looks like a piece of heavy gage wire with a loop on one end and a hook on the other, insert it into the hole and pull straight out. The jack, which is stored with the spare tire under the cargo area, is positioned on the body rail either just in front of the rear tire or just behind the front tire. Here is where a problem can arise. Our 2002 has one "keyed" lug nut on each wheel this requires an adapter that fits into the lug wrench and then into the keyed" lug nut, this is a theft prevention device, however if someone has removed this adapter from your kit you will need to purchase one from your Volkswagen dealer! Tough to do when your in the parking lot of your local ski resort. In a nut shell, consult your owners manual and inventory the tire kit, today!
