I was getting the rubber floor mats out of my trunk today and noticed that the locking key for the lugs was not there. I looked everywhere for it so I think when the dealer rotated my tires they never put it back. Now my question is if I take off 4 lugs on the wheels and push the tire so there is less pressure on the locking lug do you think that it will come off? If not then I am going to have to jerryrig up something to take the locking lug off. I know that this isn't a GT but this is the most active post area and wanted a bunch of opinions. Thanks

Most dealers have a master set of keys. They should be able to remove them for you, but I would go back to the dealer that never returned the ket in the first place...

The same thing happened to me...Wound up taking a 12 point metric socket and tapping it on to the the lug nut after removing the other lug nuts first.... they all came right off no problems...

why not make the dealer get a new one for you :confused: i would have went back there since they were the last ones to use it, and would have at least had them at least look for it or get a new one
