Chayan,

In the U.S., we have a storage for the spare tire under the front of the
van, roughly centered behind the front bumper.  It's a round, tire-shaped
pan if you look up into the van.

Subject: Syncro's spare tire location



Hi All,
When I purchase my syncro, I did not realize that where to put the spare
tire. I've only checked that it had a spare tire and it was put at rear
storage (above the engine hatch). On my reserch, looking in the instruction
manual borrowing from my friend, I found that the spare tire can be located
at rear storage, attached left side by bracket or in front, underneath the
radiator. I have been to VW authorized dealer here in Thailand asking the
question where to put the spare tire on syncro and they said that spare tire
should be put in front of. However, in sectional picture of syncro I have
seen that the spare tire was in rear storage left hand side.
