Spare wheel removal for body off?
Hi - car in tomorrow for a 240K service (and 105K for the engine) - so a body off job.
Does the spare wheel need removing to take the body off? Only asking because I would remove my dog box if so.

I had those done early on my car when the body was off for turbo change.

Hi - thanks v much Yes - I know it’s possible not to. It’s a really cracking dealership who I’ve been going to for 12 years now so happy to go with their preferred way of doing it. This will be the third time they’ve taken the body off and both times were faultless so am pretty relaxed about it. Thanks v much though - appreciate the tip 2020 SDV6 D5 HSE, Carpathian Grey +

...actually. In fairness, I’ve not actually asked them whether they are taking the body off. I just assumed they were as they did last time So, maybe they’re keeping it on!2020 SDV6 D5 HSE, Carpathian Grey +
