halfords sell a set of 2 sockets that they claim will undo 99% of locking wheel nuts

hope this helps

have you tried looking were the jack is kept as mine is clip on the jack with all the tools

The halfords ones do not work with the McGuard nuts fitted by ford, the number should be somewhere - you can then get a replacement from McGuard.

 

My local tyre depot have a McGuard master set for the Ford ones, may be an idea to try that just to get them off for the moment.

I thought places like halfrauds weren't allowed to sell these special tools to remove locking wheel nuts because the pikeys were using them and nicking wheels? :lol:

Hi Mirez

 

 

I have the original locking wheelnuts with a male spline type key. It is getting steadily more and more knackered - Where can I get a key? You say that ir is a mcgard key but as mine is a 2001 I am not sure. I can get them off but don't want to go to the expense of buying a complete new set unless I really have to.

 

 

 

Cheers

I would have thought it to be a Mcgard set but take a photo of the lockers and/or key and I'll let you know.

 

There are a few places that can sell replacement keys, http://www.wheel-locks.co.uk/page.asp?id=keys is a good site. You'll need to know the key number though which should be either on a sticker inside one of the rear compartments, or in with the handbook pack, or with the key (if you still have the little bag it came in!)
