Tow bar removal
Dear all,
Following searching previous posts, I am fully aware of the forum policy regarding tow bar removal advice.
I have recently bought a 2006 D3 HSE with a removable tow bar fitted. The tow bar is locked in place and the key is not provided. I have been in to the dealer and ordered a replacement lock and key (due to arrive on Wednesday) but I don't know how to get the tow bar off the car.
I'd be very grateful if someone was able to PM some instructions to me. I am happy to prove that I do indeed own the car (by sending pic of V5) if desired.
Many thanks. I'm working my way through minor issues with the car and I've been very grateful to the forum and the search function!

Hi Giles,
All we become obvious when you receive the new lock! However you may still have a fight if yours is corroded in position as mine was, as the retractable part had seized!
Good Luck!
Must stop buying shiny toys....

Thank you for the replies I'm not sure what to expect when I open this box. It'll be like Christmas. I'll see how I get on.
