Hello all,
New to the forum as I purchased an IS at the weekend...
But, there is always a but....
I got the MOT booked for Monday, all the car needs is the brake pads/discs changing as they are a little warped..
I do not have the locking wheel nut adapter key to remove my wheels (right now I want to kill the guy who sold the car to me)..
I have exhausted all routes I can think of, dealer where I purchased the vehicle, all motor factors, Halfrauds etc...
No one has the same typeremoval key, I will call into Kwik-fit on route home from work to see if they can help, but I guess it's unlikely...
What I need if any IS owner out there in the Merseyside area to let me drive to there place and just undo the locking bolts. I will replace with standard bolts.
Is there anyone that can assist??
The locking nuts are the Trilock type, three circular holes 8mm Dia, external Dai 23mm. The outer sleeve of the nuts spin so the old socket trick will not work for me.. the key appears to be the same as found on my two previous Toyotas.. So I'm assuming Lexus used the same key for all 200's. I got 2000 IS200.
Anyone within 2 hrs drive about tonight/tomorrow/Friday willing to lend a tool to a fellow IS owner??
If you PM me your number I will call to explain all details, I'm based in Liverpool..
Cheers all.
