Locking Wheel Nut Key - Code G

Unfortunately my locking wheel nut key is damaged.

Does anybody in the Newcastle-upon-Tyne / Teesside area have a letter G locking wheel nut key for a Discovery 4 that I could use to remove my locking wheel nuts by any chance?

Kind regards,

John

You should be able to find one on ebay. Then ditch the security nuts and go with nice new standard ones. It was pretty much the first job I did when I got mine. I've never had any wheels stolen, but I've had quite a few broken or seized "security" nuts/bolts over the year.

You mean £200 isn't affordable ??? Laughing

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/254790202890

Best alternative I can find is here:

But every other online seller I found is out of stock so maybe these are NLA and do command a massive premium. I'd be getting the drills out.

I don't know about non-capped ones but I bought some cheap replacements from ebay and they're perfectly fine. Just over £20 for the set IIRC.

Before/after:

In the light of the above probably the best solution is to go to a decent tyre fitter who has a set of wheel nut keys & pay them a nominal sum to remove yours.

It may mean 'phoning around a bit before finding someone who can help!

Good luck.

Thankyou for finding the cheap alternative. Will get one ordered this week
