If you mean the locking wheel nut key its in a little compartment in the tool roll. Open the tool roll and look in the top part on the edge on the inside, if you have one it should be there

I bet you are, its a hell of a job to get them off with a chisel or a hammering a socket onto it

I was running around for about a year and did not know you even needed a key , it was only when the nice man at kwickfit said "wheres u key" did i find out . tyres on hold, quick trip to vw to get it sorted .
and thinking back i had been in the middle of noware in the highlands on mi hols , im glad i dident get a flat .
i always keep it in the glove box now .
