View Full Version : how much would it cost to drill out four wheel bolts?
Best way is to remove the hub and take it to a engineering shop for them to extract.
pay around £10 per hub.
i think what he means is how do you remove a locking wheel nut if you havent got the key
:roll:

Daz,
I am presuming it is 1 on each wheel, because if it is you can't take the rear hub off, as there is a dust cap which prevents you getting to the hub nut (you need the wheel off to take this out, which you can't do).
Best option is to take it to a garage to do this, or try and find a mobile bod with a suitable drill. Takes fooking ages.
If they are the crappy Renault locking wheel nuts with those 3/4 pins that shear of as soon as look at them, then an old trick is to put a 13mm socket - which you don't want, place it over the top of the wheel nut and tw&t it on. Thus moulding the flat round wheel nut into a 13mm pattern, then simply undo as normal.
Sorted.
