Everyone loves an update.... Tried with a buzz gun and current key but it wouldn’t shift...on the plus side it wasn’t jumping off so enough bite left on the key. A phone call later and my friendly mobile tyre fitter guy arrives with his 900lb buzz gun....same deal...loads of noise and no movement. F...

Re: Locking wheel nut key - where to buy

She’ll need to use my car so it’s an emergency in my world 😂.

No-one knows when places that are shut will start trading again and I’d rather not be down a car for an extended period if I can.

Re: Fuel flap release

Checked the manual expecting a little diagram like other cars I’ve had but like you say nothing. Dealers are having a quick look in an hour so hopefully they’ll just clip it back on (assuming it’s just popped off and not snapped)
