couple of quid from halfords or stealer for the locking wheel nut
not sure on the jack tbh - try not to use the 'widow maker' if i can help it lol - only in emergencies

better to have one that not, it's not exactly practical for most people to carry a trolley jack in their car everywhere.
check the scrappies/breakers for a jack, i imagine it'll be a damn sight cheaper than new from the stealers.

I've got a locking wheel nut key if it's the same as yours you can have it for £5 cost £15. Although not sure how we find out.

Have you still got the standard Gti rims on? If you have, there's every chance.
Can anybody else help out on this?

What's the part number mate? I'll check with my mate who works at Audi.

Since you are in the midlands, give Midland VW a call. they are based in Cannock. I used them a few years back, were very helpful and cheaper than the stealers. Te: 01543 495700

Also, there is a VAG breakers yard in Coventry, have used them too - quite helpful again.

didn't say he should have a trolley jack in the boot :rolleyes:
said that the 'widow maker' is designed for emergencies and not general usage

Thanks for all the help guys! I'll let you know how I get on.

Ben,
I've still got that locking nut key at home you want ,e to get the part numberoff it later, then take it with you when you go VWand if it's that one you can have it for pennies. No good to me.

Cheers Tim :smiley:

Part number is
WHT 002 480 052
It's a circle with 7 square notches cut out.
-
I'll get my mate to check it out for me. I'll let you know.

Apparently Audi keep a full set of master keys. They simply find the locking nut that fits and order using the corresponding part number. My mates going to try and bring the kit from the dealership for me to have a look at and get it ordered for me for nothing.
Thanks for the offer anyway.
