Octavia locking wheel nuts

Erm, numptie problem here*.

Need a replacement locking wheel nut tool for a 2001 Octavia 4x4 Elegance estate. It's the standard alloys and locking nut. It's the fine internal (nut) splined type. I don't know if there is a standard for this year/model.






*yes, you guessed it, drove off with adapter still in nut and big surprise it's no longer there!

Re: Octavia locking wheel nuts

theres about 20-30 different ones i think
pop into your dealer and they can try different ones untill they get one to fit

I did exactly the same thing

Re: Octavia locking wheel nuts

Cheers. Just have to find a main Skoda dealer then!

I'll probably ditch the security nuts and replace them with standard ones, I doubt 6 year old corroded Skoda alloys are on the top of the average thief's wish list!
