I suspect there could be enough room under the Transport Pack raised floor for a space saver, if you cut a nice round hole in the middle of the foam organiser bit.

If I’d known that I might have ordered the transport pack, but I didn’t so I didn’t! Just goes to show that a bit of research is often a good investment.
(I’ve never not had a spare tyre of some description)

Somewhere on here you should find a post with the part numbers for the bits you need to add the raised floor if you did want to give it a try.
But yes, on the research point: I read the manual cover to cover for the Enyaq, Ionic 5, ID.4 and Q4 etron and lurked on the forums for a couple of months before committing to spend almost as much money as my first house cost. But my job relies on me knowing things fully rather than guessing or assuming so that comes naturally to me. I know other people don’t always want to do that.

I had a slow leak on one of my rear tyres - no sign of a nail etc so used my usual fix of a can of tyre-weld. This did the trick nicely for several thousand miles before the tyres were replaced for bad wearing (see my other post).

There are many people who scoff at tyre-weld but I've had excellent experiences with it including running tyres for 20k miles with no issues.

I just carry a couple of cans in the under-boot storage bin just in case...
