Default Locking Nut

So I loose my locking nut key, I counted that it was the 16 star one so ordered both possible ones from http://www.zakparts.com who have been excellent by the way. But neither of the KAMAX or ABC 16 stud ones fit my locking nut, I tried Audi, who tried nearly every locking nut thingi on the '8 using the Audi master set they even let me have the one they 'thought' fitted free of charge But when I tried it at home, it did not fit in any of the locking key thingis, it is indeed 16 stud the same as is in the the car but it just turns when I try to loosen it on every wheel, so it is not secure if I said that right. I was hoping people could let me know what it says on the back of there locking keys. I just want to know if A8, particularly prefacelifts had KAMAX or ABC locking nuts, is anyone has the 16 star nuts could you let me know what number it says after ABC, the one I have been supplied with says ABC 5. I really am stumped and wanted to get my new conti sports and brake pads on this weekend, plus the annual ABS sensor clean is needed!
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks to everyone in advance.
