    Mk4 wheel lock nut - urgent help required

    Well it had to happen one day...I have misplaced the lock nut attachment.

    It's a pointed 19 spline style tool.

    Does anyone have one handy I could borrow and get rid of these lock nuts once and for all??

    I will pay for postage both ways.

    Please help.

    Bash a long 12mm spline into them, and blast them off with a rattle gun.

    Then just buy normal bolts. Unfortunately, you can't buy individual replacements anymore from VW.

    Thanks very much guys, I appreciate all the help.

    I've been so busy this week, hopefully tomorrow I'll rip the garage apart to try and locate it.

    I can't even drive my car atm because there is something seriously wrong with my front brakes. There must be a rock stuck between the rotor and pad. The noise is absolutely ridiculous!!!!
