Locking Wheel Nuts, What Sort? Help!

[VTR_Dan_VTS]

Hi, before i begin can i say i have looked through the forums and if no one can help me willl have to pay a garage BUT below is an image of the nuts to which i have lost the special key, anyone know what type they are? I think they are standard on a saxo furio 52 plate as car has standard alloys on still.

One thing that confused me is that every single wheel nut (all 16!) are like this and they are not plastic covers either lol

So anyone know what sort these are, where i can buy them for the key?

They have 6 grooves in total per nut, Thanks!

Citroen themselves would probably be your best bet, probably not the cheapest but you can give it a go and find out

drill them out and buy new one's more then likey be cheaper the shitron

[VTR_Dan_VTS]

just want to find out what sort these locking nuts are, i cant drill all 16 of them out will take all day as they are hardened steel.

buy some normal ones from citroen and get them to swap them. if theyre standard surely they can take them out. wont cost much. and easiest option if you dont know anyone with the same bolts/ key.

I recon you can drill into that from the side, stick a lever in and twiced it out... not sure but I think that might work :)

[robidiot]

i wouldnt bother trying to drill. more hassle than its worth. im sure you can find a socket somewhere

[VTR_Dan_VTS]

yeah, robidiot, i agree with you. Please ask around every1 for me. rep given :)

if your stuck you can mig a nut on the end then undo with a normal socket.

go to your local garage and pay them £10. they will get them off in no time with pressure guns. when i bought my new alloys i couldnt get the VTR set off because of the locking key, went around kwik fit, then babbled on about how i should go to the dealer and it would cost me about £250 to take them off, went to the high street garage and the bloke came out and had a look askjed me you paying cash? i said yes said ill get them off for a tenner :p i was well chuffed :p

This is becoming an absolute nightmare for me, no garages will even attempt to get them off, cant call the AA as i dont have homestart and they wont just take all my wheel nuts off for noting as i havent broken down. Spent over £50 on the removal tools of which NONE work :(
