Wheel Locking Nut Serial Number

[Loadmaster748]

As per the information in the owner's handbook, I today went to make a note of its serial/code number.

But there's nothing on it at all - seems a bit daft if you need another.

At least it fits!

There won't be a serial number, but there will be a letter stamped on the top of the key. That corresponds to the parts system and dealer master set, it can be ordered through that method.

Also if things go pete tong you can take a picture of the locking nut and order key online, I have done that in the past.

 

[Seriously?]

Or bin the blooming things and replace with a proper lug bolt.
That way you stand a better chance of not shearing them off when the tyre place has windy-gunned them back on at about 3000 NM

I'll check again, but I'm certain that there were no markings at all on mine.

Good idea, got any links to something suitable? Thanks...

Ahhh...

There I was previously looking for a multi number code and it's just one letter! Mine is 'Q'.

Mine is Q too, so there are only 26 different keys for all the SEAT/CUPRA cars.

I've previously used RAD brand bolts on both MB and BMW. They are Geomet Zinc coated so tend to stay looking good for a decent amount of time.
Bimecc are also apparently very good.

Thanks, just remembered earlier today that I used to purchase bolts and spacers from Dave Harley at Mtec. He's already sorted out a set of 16 bolts and four lockers.
