Sounds like the threads gone on the bolt, or the hub. If its the hub, its a new hub required I think.

you'll need the locking wheel nut key. if you don't have that, then you'll have to get other members to u2u their tricks and tips on how to get the wheels off.

When i took my corsa to be lowered i forgot to take my locking wheel nut key thingy, so i said to the bloke do you want me to go an get it, he say nah its alright. Walks into the garage picks up one from his tool box an took the wheels straight off in about 30seconds!!!

When i got home i looked at the box the locking wheel nuts came in and it said "only one key will un-lock these wheels - do not lose"

Can you not just pull it out??

If the thread gone on the bolt then if you pull it hard enough it might just slip out

*i can take no responsibillity for any damaged caused by using this method*

you will have to have them drilled off, or go to Mr vauxhall, and see if they can order you with a new key, but think they need a code for that, check your log bookd etc. to see if there is a locking wheel nut card.
