Porsche lug nut lock key failure.

[kashmir]

While removing my wheels today I experienced a total lug nut lock key failure.



As I put presser on the breaker bar I heard that familiar death rattle and the wrench completely disengaged, I feared the worst.



As you can see it has been welded once before, so I took the faulty key to my local Porsche dealer, the nice salesman told me that the new 981 lug key was completely redesigned and that it did not experience total failure anymore, an in the 986 model, but that my key was out of warranty and would have to buy a new one.



Here is the new and improved key, its more shout and robust than the old, I cant Wait to put it in my tool kit.

Yours,
