I've had to do that twice. Both times it was rusted to f**k. Generator out with an angle grinder laid on the road side. Thank god all the sparks help folk see and avoid your legs
Wow thank you for your video. Have just purchased a 2018 Galaxy and have the same issue as there is no mention of spare wheel changing in the manual. Funny this as there is a read manual indicater in the boot where you undo the top nut. You had the 'luxury' of doing this with the car in the air, I have just done it lying in my drive. What a fag as I reckon you would need to carry a pair of overalls in the car. Also assume you put back the punctured full tyre in the same place. That is going to be heavy. Now I need to find where the jacking points are, as there is no mention of that in the manual. Surely Ford could have design it somehow so the spare wheel is under the rear seats in the boot.
What a right balls up that is, wouldn’t fancy having to change a wheel on the hard shoulder at night.

To find the jacking points is pretty easy, they are marked with holes in the plastic thresholds.
Many thanks I will have a look sometime soon
