Normally there is something inside the boot that you unscrew and the wheel comes down and you can get it that way.

your spare wheel is located under the car

lift the carpet up from the front of the boot and you will find the screw bit you should have the tool in the boot to undo it,it loosens anti clockwise

I just rang the RAC yesterday as the bolts on the wheel were too tight. You pay for the RAC so you might as well use them.

Done it, i used the black thing to loosen the spare then on of the boys got it off

Wheel nuts were too tight for me to get off so ended up asking one of the boys to do it

and it turns out my spare is illegal, and punctured

and i still have 4 hours of work left, but may be here till 7 if i need Rich to pick me up
