^A dealership probably won't. But somewhere like Discount Tire might. I know they keep a few handy.

What style lock is it? or are they just spline-drive lugs?

Just the stock ones that come on the car I think. round on the outside with a "design" in the face of it.

Our cars don't "come with" any wheel locks.
Those you're talking about might be difficult to get out

Stainless Brake Line Question
Do the stainless brake line kits on ebay, such as...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/StopT...item255626e141

Fit the coupe & the sedan. I would think it would be the same but i wanted to check. I have a 2006 G35x.

Thanks

Well shlt. I went to tires plus over lunch break and they didn't have anything. I'll check a few more places before I go for the destruction method.

on my car when i put in 1st (6MT) from take off it sounds like a bicycle with a playing card hitting the spokes.. click,click,click,click and when i hit the gas a little harder it goes away.. and when i put the car in N and roll to a stop it comes back around 10mph ...

is it the rear axles , hub, bearing , compression rods, end links , coils , breaks ,

need some answers.. also i have another 40,000 miles / 4 years of extended warranty and if in deed it is the axle it will be covered :-)

lets hear your thoughts please

Bumppppppp

That is an intelligent observation, i'm proud of you.

Closest infiniti dealership is ~300 miles away.
Check the documnets and owners manual that came with car... there should be a tag with wheel lock code - you can call the dealer or probably mcgard direct and request replacement key... I think you need to submit copy of the document and possibly fill out form.

It used to be a common topic - try searching for OEM wheel lock key (but go back several years)

My 06 came with wheels locks. I was in the same situation and didn't receive a key from the dealer I got it from, except I wasn't 300 miles away though. I know Infiniti dealers have a universal key for all the wheel locks since no two are the same.

NorthDakota, try the Nissan dealership. If not, then a discount tire or the oversized socket trick

For really? Huh.

Did not know that

I figured wheel locks would be a dealer installed option if anything.

Guess you learn something every day.
