FaaaarckToday - for the first time I tried to lock the spare wheel lock box.
I used the key for the centre storage box but this key will NOT lock the spare wheel storage.
The agent told me same key works on both - can someone please confirm.
cheers

Return the vehicle. It is not built for purposeFaaaarck

Just to add to the mix here.
I collected my pre owned Grenadier last week. It came with a slip over wheel cover (something that Grenadier suppliers are putting on, as it has their logo printed on).
I popped into my local Grenadier supplier to register my vehicle with them, and asked to order the lockable box.
Once he’d ticked all the boxes for each individual part (it’s not supplied as a single item, cheeky buggers) which consisted of many, including three foam inserts at £12 each (+VAT), the tally reached over £500!!!
Order cancelled with immediate effect.
Moral of the story: order it through the configurator.
Even the blank insert is around £120, but as a previous member said, you can at least use the wheel to store some non value items in there, such as snatch straps or similar.
But make sure whatever you store is sealed in bags, as the rim will allow water ingress from the back.
Check the box if it's not locked. Maybe the black key is in there? Greetings Barneyadded to page 2 of list of issues to address!
What irritates me is lack of attention to detail - someone clearly forgot to attach the 2 spare wheel box keys to the main keys and when I queried which key locks the storage box - the agent rep didn't know so just gave me BS
If the purpose was to keep the owner out of the spare tire cubby, it is indeed fit for purpose.Return the vehicle. It is not built for purpose
I just asked him. He told me that it’s not available any longer as most fitted locks caused problems after some time and that this would be the new solution… Have you asked you dealer? Or how do you know that the key/ lock barrel ist still available?The key/ lock barrel is available to order ask your dealer for a proper solution
Das kann ich verstehen. Ich habe selbst eine abschließbare Reserverad-Box. Das dort verbaute Schloss ist leider von minderwertiger Qualität. Das gleiche gilt für das Schloss in der abschließbaren Mittelkonsole. Der gleiche Schrott. Da hat Ineos sich keinen Gefallen getan, bei diesen beiden Schlössern so an der Qualität zu sparen. Ich habe für die beiden Schlösser vier Schlüssel. Keiner der Schlüssel sperrt an der Mittelkonsole, zwei Schlüssel sperren die Reserverad-Box, aber auch nur widerwillig. Am falschen Fleck gespart. Es gibt wohl doch schon dumme, dumme Kostenrechner bei Ineos. Schade eigentlich. Diese Deppen, die solche Schlösser kaufen, sollte man entlassen. Sofort.I just asked him.
