the petrolcap has a small sort of hook on it to hang your screw cap onto when filling so you dont misplace it,
but whats got me baffled is what the **** is that little sort of grey stick which sits up near the hinge,,wot is it for????
i thought mabe summat to do with resetting locking mech for fuel cap..ie the black pin which sticks out when locked

i wud love to know its got be baffled,,,i will kick myself if its summat obvious

Look in your manual i did was wondering to.its for putting on and taking off your dust caps.Why i dont know? :lol:

 

[ka$h]

So if you're heavy on your brakes, you can take the cap off without getting brakedust on your fingers!

 

[ScottC]

yeah its for they people that put them plastic gloves on when they fill there car up! :lol: :lol:

one end as said undo's the dust caps and the other end is for the 5 door version to turn the child locks on :thumbs:

But how many people on here have the locking valve caps because little sh*ts keep nicking the normal ones?? Kinda makes the tool redundant for me!!

I heard they can get jammed so I was told to use some vaseline on them, its water proof and is ment to do the job!! (No jokes about vaseline please!! :lol: )

You should have looked at national tyres. They have a discount page where you can print vouchers. Last month 5 wheels balanced for a fiver!

There were also many others, but can't remeber them now.

 

[SilverSRi]

can't remember how many times I've had my alloy arial nicked, but not the valve caps as I can't get the FCUKERS off myself!!! Proper tight, don't know how to get them off, gonna knacker the valve in if I twist it anymore!
