Replacement Locking Wheel Socket

[Death by Saints]

Hi,

The locking wheel bolt adapter for my 991.1 (not centre locks) has just broken when doing the final torque of the bolts, 160 N/m according to the manual.
Are replacements available and is it a dealer only purchase?
I know I can get a replacement adapter including new bolts but obviously need some way of removing the current locking bolts first.

Many thanks

These guys may be able to supply a replacement, although I'm sure a Porsche dealership will be able to as well.

Thanks for this, will give them a try.

Looking on the bright side the key must have been cracked for some time looking at the discolouration at the break so it was just waiting to happen. At least it broke when replacing the wheel by choice rather than trying to fix a puncture in the rain etc.

Impressed with the very quick reply from them regarding a replacement so placed an order and will update once it arrives.
Thanks again for the link.
