HELP PLEASE! - Lost locking wheel nuts.....

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

 

Iv'e been very stupid and have lots my locking wheel nuts on my VRS. I have a sneaky suspension I binned them by accident a month ago and now my tyres need replacing.

 

Has anyone been in a similar position / could advise on what's best to do. I was going to phone the main dealership but didn't want to get ripped off without asking people on here first.

 

Many thanks in advance :)

Mine became damaged and had to replace a few years ago, just telephone your Skoda dealer, they will want the Reg number and Card details, it cost me about £13 - £15 and I collected in about 48Hrs.

Ahh excellent that sounds much better than I thought I gather these will include the key as well?

Thanks

I may have misread your post, I was referring to a Spare Key & (one) Nut.

Ahh ok thanks anyway seemed a little cheap will probably phone them up anyway as its going to be a full set and key so I can get them off and fit them again....

Iv'e contacted Skoda and its not as expensive / difficult as thought.

Now record the "number" on the security key when you get  - for the next time! Maybe I'm being smug, but checking that number and recording it is one of the first things I tend to do when I get a new car - just in case.

You could if you get stuck perhaps..try Flea-bay, I got a second set a few years back.

They were McGard number 28018...

Ah, on re-reading this, that is what I thought had happened as well, ie only bolt "key" lost - I was also wrong!

Specialist cars Skoda in Aberdeen removed my locking nuts for fee after i mistakenly left the key attached to a wheel.

I''dbypass SKODA and head to VAG TPS.
