Hi has anyone got an idea what locking nut this is and how to get it off I have got them on with BBS RA's the person who I brought the car off had lost the locking nut and I need to take the wheel off to check brakes and do some work on the car....I am however finding it hard to get a key or know what key to even get for this locking bolt, I would like to be able to use these nuts again so don't really want to break them in anyway but really need them ASAP. Thank for anyone who can help with this issue.

Hi all! after having my clutch changed recently I had abit of drama with the bolts on my drive shaft coming loose due to vibration and my right hand shaft actually coming off luckily at a slow speed. When this happened i believe one of the threads has been f*****d as I can't get the last bolt in. I have someone who will rethread it for me but he wants to know the size of the bolts which is info I can't find anywhere. Any info is great. lupo 1.0e thanks ash

Hi Guys, I became the proud owner of a VW Lupo yesterday, and I love it. Unfortunately the car has come with some 'character' i.e, some stuff that really needs fixing or at least a good bodge! Thought I'd post on here as a friend also owns a VW and said it's a great place to get advice. So, list of problems (bear with me): 1. Driver side door is operated on a different key. Not sure why, but it's the only one. I have thought about swapping it for the passenger side lock just to make life easier, and then maybe adding central locking... I have a few good friends who know what they're doing - has anyone done it before and how long does it take? 2. The Doors clunk quite loudly - previous owner said it was to do with the bolts being to small? Anyone know where I can get some that will fit or anything I can do to quieten the noise a little? 3. Rear wiper is unresponsive and looks as though its stuck 1/4 of the way through a movement. Probably a fuse but has anyone else had this? 4. Starter motor is pretty knackered (first attempt at a start the car screams, works on 2nd/3rd attempt). How easy is it to fit? does it need to go to a garage? I've found reconditioned ones for about £30 delivered. Doesn't seem to happen with a full tank of petrol? 5. The emissions light came on during the drive to work this morning? But the car has just been through its MOT? Any ideas? ( I know this is a bit vague). I know they're not the end of the world but if I could get them fixed it would turn an already good little motor into a great one. Any advice would be great Thanks! Spence
