These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I had new tires put by swire tire in Ripon, ca last year..I confirmed with them that they put the wheel locks in the trunk. Now I have the car in the body shop for a damaged wheel and suspension evaluation (I hit a brick) and the wheel lock is missing. 1. are wheel locks standard on a 2002 996? 2. If they are or not, how do I get the lug nuts off? Thanks for your advice.

POST 2Original post

Unfortunately with many modern vehicles the only way to get the locks off without damaging them is with a master set or or getting a replacement key which would require knowing the key code from the missing key. There are other ways shops can remove the locks but almost always it requires damaging them. -Matt

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thankyou for the response. We managed to find the lock socket rolling around in the trunk. I have less comfort in using lock because of this episode.

POST 4Original post

In my opinion wheel locks are a waste as they only keep honest people honest . If a pro thief wants your wheels he has the right tools to do so . Make it hard enough to steal them he takes the car .

POST 5Original post

get a set of these. Surprised your shop doesn't have them. https://www.harborfreight.com/universal-locking-lug-nut-removal-set-58535.html?ccdenc=eyJjb2RlIjoiOTI3Njk1OTciLCJza3Ui OiI1ODUzNSIsImlzIjoiMzEuOTkyIn0%3D&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=17484084661&campaignid=17484084661&utm_content=142950001132&adsetid=142950001132&product=58535&store=&gclid=Cj0KCQjwzLCVBhD3ARIsAPKYTcTYVwe6WKHfzFWbm1Th izAZ3lcJchS_XseEmwkPlzR-36Mf6IE-udoaAm0DEALw_wcB
