My QQ has 17mm nuts on the wheels but the locking wheel nut was shredded and I didnt want to take a risk with it so I ordered a new one with an official Nissan dealer. When I got the new one home and looked I realised it is a 21mm nut which is a real PITA because I have just bought the spare wheel set and the wrench obviously has the standard 17mm fitting.

Do you think the dealer should have given me an exact replacement (17mm) locking wheel nut or is it just a case of me having to buy an adapter ?

Thanks.

Langstrom, take a Look at the Post "Chassis, Wheels & Tyres" / "Locking Wheel Nuts on Tekna" here you should find the facts you need. Our German QQ Tekna had no looking Nuts aus Part of the Spec so we had to order #KE409-89946 Nissan Locking nuts which have an internal form to match the bolt and a 17mm A/F for the wrench, please see above Post and Pics - hope this helps Dave ;)
Obviously you could buy a new 21mm A/F wrench also !

Thanks. That's how my original one looked but the replacement had the 21mm nut which is disappointing. I did ask the dealership at the time and they said "sometimes the specs change". I felt this was a bit of a fob off at the time.
