Re: c5 locking wheel nut tool
Do you mean a specific removal tool for removing them when the keys are lost or the actual key that comes with the car ? if you mean the key that comes with the car then they are not all the same, there are about 30 different combinations for each type of bolt.

Re: c5 locking wheel nut tool
If you've lost your key (which is unique to the car) and going to replace with a regular wheel nut, go to a tyre depot. They have the tool for removing a locking nut.

Re: c5 locking wheel nut tool
It has been possible to remove the wheel bolt using a suitable sized socket, hammered on the the bolt head.
Another method, weld a nut onto the head of the bolt.
Good luck

Re: c5 locking wheel nut tool
Trouble is, the Citroen bolts have raised heads designed to break away under torque, as they only act as a guide for the key. The actual driving surface is a flat flange with uniquely spaced holes for the key.

Re: c5 locking wheel nut tool
Mine was very similar to that - until I got rid of the locking wheel nuts. Nothing but a nuisance.
