I noticed at the weekend Halfords do a wheel bolt removal kit. can't speak for the quality of if they do work or not.

That looks like a Citroen one.

Mine were seized recently, when a balance weight fell off. KwikFit, my favourite tyre place had the tool (its like an EasyOut, broken bolt remover, with sharp teeth working the 'wrong' way, so they grip and turn it out) but it was broken! And anyway, KwikFit fitter said "Citroen are the worst"!

Took it to my Citroen dealer, who fixed it at the cost of new security bolts, but needed their favourite tyre place to do it.

Now, you know the old tale, that tyre fitters think that the tighter a wheel is bolted in the better? When my car was returned, I tried them. ALL the wheel bolts were tightened to three or four times the proper torque! With the wheel brace supplied with the vehicle, it was impossible to undo them. I needed my breaker bar and a big effort.

Complained to Citroen dealers - no reply as yet.
