I lost the peice(key part)that connects to you tire iron and removes the wheellocks.. how do i remove it without the key?
thanks

 

try a wheel shop. i heard a gator wrench works but im not sure without torque......

 

It will have to be removed with a key removal tool, a local tire shop should have one. Basically it's get hammered on, and turned off. You can't order a replacement key unless you still have the original serial number from the wheel locks.

 

unfortunatly im a retard and threw the orignal packaging away and cant find the receipt.

 

went to 2 wheel and tire shops today, both tried this tool they have that they hammer on and then removes them, well, did not work for either of em. both said it will have to be drilled out. any other suggestions b4 i actaully do decide to drill it out.

 

if you weld or know someone who does, weld a nut onto the top of the lugnut, you could also try one of the universal sockets that have all the little wire like things inside it, there only like 10 bucks and it might be worth a try.

 

Welding onto chrome plate is always a bad idea. You could try drilling and then tapping them with a left-hand thread bolt, and then knocking them off that way.

 

generally there is only so many patterns for wheel locks. go search through some kits until you find the one that fits yours, unless you bought them high dollar fancy ones.

take a pic of the lock, sometime there are common tools that can remove them

 

If there is the space a pair of vise grips and a pipe might work.

 

I got them off . brought the audi to my fathers place, he used a 3/4 inch hex impact socket and a big hammer. no damage to the wheel but the socket is a lil dinged up.
