Re: Missing locking wheel nuts!

We’ve just had a couple of tyres replaced by a mobile fitter. Whilst fitting the tyres they advised that they’d discovered the two wheels on the passenger side were missing their locking nuts and a third on the drivers side was only hand tight!

Due to COVID restrictions we’ve generally been using the car less, but ran it every so often. Today the car unlocked ok, but wouldn’t start on the driveway (even with th...

Re: Intermittent unlocking / key ID issue

No, the other key was at home (today & last night when it also happened) but it was with us (on person, not in car) the other day. Thanks for the info/suggestions...if the car battery itself was poor I’m assuming the start/stop inactive issue would kick in (we had that before the main battery wa...
