Volkswagen Touran Service Manual: Tires, Mounting, Wheels without and with Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Only trained personnel can perform the assembly work on
run-flat tires. |
If equipped check the tire pressure monitoring sensor with
the vehicle diagnostic tester and if necessary replace. |
|
Bring the tires to the mounting temperature. Refer to
→ Chapter "Tires, Bringing to Mounting Temperature". |
 Note
When cleaning disc wheel (rim), the tire pressure monitoring
sensor (if equipped) must not come into contact with water or be
blown with pressurized air. |
If equipped handle the glued-on wheel trim carefully.
Surface slightly scratched. |
Replace the damaged rim wheel trim. |
|
Insert new tire valve with Valve Fitting Tool -VAS6459-. |
|
Coat rim flanges, tire beads and inside of upper tire beads
thoroughly with tire mounting paste. |
|
Place the inner side of the tire on the rim. |
|
Turn the rim until the tire valve of the tire pressure
monitoring sensor aligns with the mounting head. |
|
|
|
|
Push the tires between the tire valve or the tire pressure
monitoring sensor and the mounting head into the bed in
direction of -arrow-. |
|
Let the tire dismounting/mounting machine run clockwise
until the mounting head is in front of the tire valve or the
tire pressure monitoring sensor. Slide the lower tire bead over
the rim flange. |
|
Turn the rim until the tire valve of the tire pressure
monitoring sensor aligns with the mounting head. |
|
Let the tire dismounting/mounting machine run clockwise
until the mounting head is in front of the tire valve or the
tire pressure monitoring sensor. Slide the upper tire bead over
the rim flange. |

Caution
There is a risk of damaging the rim due through too
high spring pressure. |
Never set the spring pressure over 3.3 bar (47.86
psi). |
|
|
Inflate the tire to maximum pressure of 3.3 bar (47.86 psi)
(spring pressure). |
|
If tire beads do not make contact completely on disc wheel
edge, then release air, press off tire bead once more and coat
rim flange thoroughly again with tire mounting paste. |
|
When the tire bead makes contact on the bead seat, increase
the pressure to 4 bar (58 psi). |
|
If the tire bead does not make complete contact with the
bead seat, dismount the tire and mount it again. Refer to
→ Chapter "Tires, Dismounting, Wheels without and with Tire
Pressure Monitoring System". |
|
Fill the tire with the specified tire pressure. |
|
Balance the tire. Refer to
→ Chapter "Wheel, Balancing". |
 Note
Avoid strong braking or acceleration maneuvers during the
first 100 to 200 km (62.13 to 124.27 miles). Otherwise due to
the tire mounting paste the tires can distort on the rim. |
