Wheel Locking Nuts.

Can anyone tell me how many wheel lock nut keys you get as standard?

Got in the car the other day and the seat was different to how I left it and there was stuff from the glove box on the seat. Thought nothing of it and contined on my way, got down the road and the info light was telling me the boot wasn't closed properly, again thought nothing of it after shutting it, just assumed the mrs had been dopey, of course when she asked me why the wheel locking nut was on the seat with the rest of the contents of the glove box, alarms went off. Some possibilities are:

One of us has left the car open and an opportunist has had a rummage for something quick and valuable (and only found baby stuff) or they have the other wheel nut key(if it exists) and will be back for the wheels at a later date.

The car is 2nd hand and I would never have thought to check it but if they come with 2 as standard. If they do I'm off down to Halfords tomorrow to get a replacement set.

As always help is appreciated

Regards

Mark.

Locking nuts only come with one key but usually have a code number for ordering a replacement if the key is lost or damaged.

If you do not have a keycard, or a key. Take your car to the dealer and they can remove them as they have a master set. then you would need to replace the nuts, I just tend to go with standard, none locking nuts.

I broke my first nut ( :ph34r: ) key had to go to the main dealer and they charged £90 to remove them.

I took my own set of new locking nuts for them to fit £30 from halford.

Then i broke that key and had to get another from McGard.
