Hi all
I was looking for the locking wheel nut adaptor at the weekend, as I need to get an alloy on the rear repaired (only 3 months old.... ) I couldn't find it anywhere? Where should it be? I assume it should have come with the car??? I have contacted my local dealer, but no response yet (their service has not been great or even good to date). If I wanted to buy one, where would I find the code??
Thanks. UncleBod
Locking wheel nut adaptor
Mine was in the pre-cut expanded foam sections in the boot, where the emergency tyre gel stuff is (I say "was" but only because I moved it)

As Cluck says, mine is in a little recess in the foam by the battery. Alternatively, it may be in the glovebox.
And, ironically, you can find the code stamped on the adaptor.

Mine was in the bag that holds the tyre inflator in the boot, no stowage for it.
Strange that this should come up today. I had to look for mine this evening (it was under a flap in the boot next to the battery) as I am getting a new tyre tomorrow.
Would you believe that the previous owner kerbed the wheel, effected a reasonable repair to the wheel but has glued down a split in the rear tyre sidewall! I don’t know how long he was driving around like that before I bought it! I found it when cleaning the wheels yesterday.
Seriously, the stupid things people do!

So, I found it's hiding place!! Who knew it was under the hidden panel in the boot? I didn't.
Interestingly, I spoke to a person at the dealership who didn't know either. He said he would call me back... 2 days ago.

The panel is hardly hidden - it's plain to see when you look in the boot on the left hand side!
The battery and wheel nut adapter is hidden under the panel - I'll give you that.
