Cupra ST spare and tool kit

[arossi101]

Ive had my Cupra ST for about five days and just realised I couldn't see any foam inside the spare with the tools, so I looked up the manual and it wasn't the clearest about them.
Ive been led to believe that if there is a spare you should have a tool kit, if you have the inflator fluid you don't, can someone clarify this with the car they have.
My last two Leons have been 1P FR+ and they came with the foam and all the tools, if im ment to have them ill be straight back to the garage where I bought it and demanding a kit

By a tool kit all you get is Jack, Wheel Brace and a bit to pull off the wheel nut covers, if you dont have them I would go back to the garage.

It should all be under the space saver wheel.

Thanks for your reply Walone, but there is just a wheel in the boot

Ill be heading to the garage on Saturday Oldboy to get this sorted!

This is what my tool kit looks like (MY 2016, ST FR).

I definitely don't have that, all ive got is the space saver. Youd think buying it from a VW Branch they would know these things??

if you have a space saver then it should be like this

 

[arossi101]

ive seen that kit on Ebay, bit like the Golf kit, do you have the inflator fluid with your kit?

 

[Deleted member 103408]

Mine is a 2014 and is very similar. No its just the tools (wheel wrench, jack, Security Lock (not please take a note of the number as they get lost and break so easier to order a new one if you have the number) and the wheel nut cover remover.

I have a 12 battery pump to reflate tyres (does not come with it)

One other bit of unhelpful info, if you have the Brembo brake kit or any other big brake kit then this spare wheel wont fit, you have to move a good wheel from the rear to the front and fit the spare on the back.

Information is always helpful!, Ive got the Brembos on mine and im sure someone said on here the Cupra space saver is bigger?, think ill go to a Seat Branch, then go to garage I bought it from, is it ok to show them they pics you've sent so it helps the parts guy

Yes I took them off the web so feel free, I have a big brake kit fitted on my Cupra and space saver only fits the rear's (as it happens I also carry a full size wheel but that is just me). I am pretty sure @Damo H told me that the user manual tells you that you cant fit it on the front. They tyres may have a bigger diameter but if the offset is not big enough then they wont fit over the brakes, happy to be proved wrong

That may not be for an ST, my kit is different (see pic above). Maybe that a Cupra one is different if it has 18" space saver, mine is 17" wheel.

Morning gents, waiting on the GM getting back to me about this kit, told a wee fib that I got a puncture and had to wait on someone coming to me with a jack and breaker bar. Even he wasnt happy especially after I mentioned I just got the email for the customer survey but I haven't filled it in yet

Did you remove the spare wheel to look under it?
My Cupra ST has the tools, but they are UNDER the spare wheel and you cant really see the tools without removing the wheel.

Same as my post #6, above, FR ST.

 

[arossi101]

Yes, cause I went over bumps I heard a low rumble from the rear, the wheel wasn't secured properly and when I lifted it out nothing there, they have said they will get me tool kit, hopefully like Post #6
