Hello my first post so please be gentle recently bought a x type found out after I bought it the locking wheel nut key is missing.

what are my options? Can you got to a jaguar dealer and get replacement keys . I know with my old BMW I had you could walk in and BMW would match the keys in the parts department and sell you a key for £12 .

option 2 get the locking nuts removed and replaced with after market ones the original nuts look like there more hassle than there worth is that correct?

any help would be much appreciated

hi rayan,  im lucky as my locking wheel nuts are fine. but i do make sure that they are at a torque of 100nm (alloy wheels) mainly because tyre places use a air gun which does them super tight!  me i would search on eBay first as a dealer will charge you the earth, but that is my first thought,  last time i brought a set of locking wheel nuts off eBay for a citroen was £48. by the the way welcome to the forum....dave.
