The time has come to replace my tyres for the 2019 season. The trouble is that this model has a locking wheel nut and I don't think I have ever had the device to remove it. Brute force might be one solution, unless someone in the Guildford area has a similar model and I could borrow their device. Are there any samaritans out there ??

Failing that a mobile tire fitter?

Thanks. Tried the mobile fitter and he could not cope. But my local garage mechanic fashioned a gizmo from a hexagonal bolt and he got both wheels off and changed the tyres......cost me almost £100 but had to be done......

Glad you got it sorted. I think the current way of thinking is that is there a need for locking wheel nuts this day and age given that alloy wheels ect are common place and not as desirable to thieves as they ones were. I have alloys without locking wheel nuts.

You may find that your local engineering workshop will be able to build a wheelnut key - however you would need to get the caravan to them. There are devices comprising multiple pins and these can be set up to suite a particular key.
