Locking Wheel Bolts.

[Guest PhilGBY]

Can anyone help.I have a damaged Locking wheel bolt on one wheel. Any suggestions how to remove it and does anyone know a supplier of a suitable replacement but something without the standard citroen fittings as they seem to be a little suspect.

simplest way is to drill the center out with a small drill bit so you don't damage the threads, the dealer will have a tool and most tyre fitting places have it and the tyre fitter could charge £20 approx and the dealer will probably try to sell you a new car lol or try to say its the engine at fault to get you dosh :)

Yes.Thats the type.The removal tool looks like a socket but it has 2 pins each side that locate into the holes on the bolt

I think this may have already been on this site, a search may help. Laser and Sealey, I think sell a socket that has an internal reverse thread that fits over the nut to allow it to be undone - I have not tried one of these so do not know how effective they are. A tyre dealer is likely to have something also. Most car accessory shops sell locking wheel bolts. If yours only have 2 pins (and not 4) in the socket then maybe they are not of Citroen supply.
