I had a set of custom made stainless steel wheel nut caps made for my car and I replaced the locking nut on each wheel with a new standard one from OPC .

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.

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

  • Porsche Club GB: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

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

POST 2Original post

If you have locking wheel nuts then the plastic cover may not fit that bolt. It may be worth checking with the supplier first.

POST 3Original post

Having purchased bolts from a well-known supplier who shall remain nameless, but has a regular ad in PP [ ], I would strongly caution against using any bolt other than an official Porsche supplied one. My after-market ones stretched & looked like bananas after a few '000 miles [ ]

POST 4Original post

I bought a set from my local OPC, didn't think they were too expensive

POST 6Original post

£150 inc vat for a full set including the 4off knurled ones & a socket adapter (Mk2 variant rather than old MK1 type)

POST 7Original post

I had a set of custom made stainless steel wheel nut caps made for my car and I replaced the locking nut on each wheel with a new standard one from OPC . The new caps suit the wheels and cover the unsightly rust.
