2008 CTS Automobile Owner Manual

Removing the Flat Tire and
Installing the Spare Tire
1. Do a safety check before proceeding. See Changing
a Flat Tire on page 5-102 for more information.
2. Loosen the wheel nuts, but do not remove them
yet, using the wheel wrench. Turn the handle
about 180 degrees, then return the handle back to
the starting position. This avoids taking the
wrench off the lug nut for each turn.
3. Find the jacking location using the diagram above
and corresponding V-shaped locating notches
located in the plastic molding.
