Last time I listen to you lot
Decided to beef up security after reading posts- started to lock it and thought I'd go one step further and get a disklok.
So it arrived today- practiced at home getting it on and off ( bloody heavy isn't it !)
Off I set to sainsburys, after a crap day at work, with a car full of whining kids ( my cup runneth over ! )
Remembered more advice - put steering lock on b4 fitting disklok ( despite never having done so in tenyears coz it's too heavy to haul wheel round ) so did so......
one hour later, beast ful of kids, shopping and with stress levels reaching stratosphere to find...........
once i'd taken off disklok I couldnt turn the feckin key- ten minutes later, key out, back in, key wiggled, wheel shifted, wobbled,wheel shook, read manual ( no bloody help)key shouted at, cried and whole thing prayed over, decided to do sensible thing and find a man
two men later and another 15 mins later some how it came off - (we dont know what we did )and all was well and off we set for home.
two gins later and feeling a bit better but
1) What did I do wrong ?
2) How do I not do it again ?
3) If I do it again how do I get the steering wheel lock off myself without going thu all that ?
