Locking Wheel Nut "chrome" Covers

[Guest Az_GTi]

Dammit I've only got 1 left now

 

Is there any way of stopping them falling off? Where can I get some replacement ones, anyone here got some spare? Think I'm gonna have to resort to some glue

The ones i had on my old car wouldn't come off even when you wanted them too!

Got the same problem with mine. First time I took it through a jet was they all came off (along with the rear windscrene washer jet thingey!!) If you find out where to get replacem,ent ones let me know

That'll be me nicking them to replace mine!

 

put a blob of grease inside and it should stay in place - works with mine

[Guest smokinslim]

Yeah thinkin bout it my old ones came with a small tube of grease.

Assuming you lot have standard wheels, why bother with locking wheel nuts? It's not as if there is a roaring trade in stolen pug wheels is there?!

There is around here, couple of set of speedlines have gone missing in the past couple of years. Think they just do it for the fun tbh.

Yeh standard wheel Jon, you'd be suprised mate. Bloody chavs round here will nick anything, valuable or not B*stards

 

Dollop of grease makes sense, still need to try and find where to get some replacements from though... any ideas?

[Guest Az_GTi]

I'm still trying to find some , can't believe I can't find them anyway , they must be available

Pug still made them a year or so ago - same as on some 306's I think....

Mine are Peugeot ones, have the box in the boot. Everytime I ring the local Peugeot I end up talking to a numb nut (excuse the pun) and I get nowhere.

 

I know it's such a small thing, just annoys me. Thought getting hold of em' would be like 50p each from somewhere (like tyre vlve caps).

I think they are for pug only.....

 

Try Dean Hunter (Peugeot Parts) on 01977 677887, he may have a new set laying around.

Back in the day, when I had my last one (10 years ago ) it was a regular thing to have the spares stolen. Dead easy to do, and find 4 cars and you've got a set!

 

I remember having mine secured with a huge chain and padlock around the rear beam

A lot of MPV's get that around here, for some reason they are not as secure as they usually are on one of the models (dont ask me, not an MPV person), so they go walkabouts.
