Cant get the spare wheel down, missing essential tool.

Post by eppiblue » Mon Oct 25, 2010 1:39 pm

So Ive managed to get a flat tyre (again). Last time the Mrs just called RAC but this time I went to change it myself. However Im missing the metal rod thing that you use to get the spare down... even the jack is some old purgeot car jack, rated max 875kg.

Where can I buy replacement tyre changing kit for the bongo? especially the rod thingy used to free the spare?

You have checked that the rod is not clipped onto the roof of the step .
