:( as above.. can anyone tell from the shape what bit is requried? There are sets on ebay for £40.. but i only need one.

Or maybe should i hammer in a spline bit and try my luck?:ROFL:

I’ve got a couple in the garage somewhere. I’ll check the shape and let you know

How many teeth does it need? I have a bunch of them. Count the valleys in the bolt, not the peaks, and I'll see if I have one to suit.

Dealerships have master key sets, and sometimes Audi independents too. They may remove it for you for a beer token +++

Looking at the picture 19 splines, so this would sort you out :)

Definitely 19. Worth giving our sponsors a call, you'll get it tomorrow. ;)

ordered! thanks

Found mine, but it’s got 15 splines.

Thought mine were 13, and indeed they are (just checked). Thought they were always a prime number, 15 obviously isn't? :Confused:

Just odd numbers I think
