First of all my apologies if this topic has already been covered, as a Newbie this is my first post.!!
My 3008 is June 2016 model. 1.6 Allure Blue Diesel.Very pleased with it. Demo model with low mileage.However managed to catch a tyre on a kerb edge and wrote tyre off. Rear o/s wheel. When we got the car I bought a space saver wheel, so put that on. Disaster.!! Brake locked on, various indications tyre size, tyre pressure,ABS etc etc. Eventually managed to get the brake off and then to the Tyre depot where they changed the tyre. They also said this was quite common on new cars -'They are too clever for their own good'. Since we tow a caravan it is important to have a spare.
I am therefore looking for a new spare full size wheel, happy to get tyre fitted myself. Can anybody suggest where I could get one please. I have only tried one source but when I asked if their spare wheel (no tyre supplied) would work without problems they couldn't tell me. Thanks.
