What are my options

a lot of the tyre garages will have the Tools to get them off, but it is destructive to the locking nut.
I panicked when my lock tool broke but it was surprisingly easy to get them sorted.

Audi garages should have a the unlocking keys for all or at least most locking bolts

Should be able to hammer a 12 pointed socket onto that so that it digs into the outside of the bolt head... Then use a breaker bar to undo.
 
If the locks are dealer fitted, your local parts dept should be able to match your VIN to the correct unlocking key.

Alternatively get one out (as per Stu's posting) see if it has a part number and get the dealer to order you the right key (and a new bolt!) :racer:
 
All sorted. Went to Audi. They removed the locking nuts. I had a set of normal bolts so fitted them. Also have the code.
