I've just been tightening the wheel nuts on my 05 "S" and can't find my locking nut socket.

Are these easily available from BMW ?

It's an internal multipoint star shape.

Did you check in the last aid kit in the compartment on left hand side of the boot?

If you cant find it, then take your car along to your nearest dealer and therell be able to order you one or when i lost mine they let me buy there spare one and simply ordered a new one for themselves, think they cost no more than £5, if i remember..

Not too bad then, I imagined it being a total rip off seeing as it's somewhat vital.
