Problem with Brake shudder

Hi again,
The '93 9000 CSET has another problem that needs resolving and I hope your collective wisdom can shed some light.
1. how do I get the wheel off. The car has the premium saab "Square spoke" wheels and the lugnuts are behind a cover that has a special 1/2" round bolt with a "tri-blade? - 3 equally spaced pins around a center pin" head pattern. Any idea where I can get one. Dealer said if I didn't have the key, they could chisel off. Wonderful! It would make it the perfect detroit car. Alloy wheels with no cover.
the big problem
2. The front left (FL?) brake shudders when breaking(hard/moderate/light) - though not always. It doesn't seem like it was the a few weeks ago when I bought the car, but it's getting more pronounced. I suspect I need pads at least(won't know till I get the wheel off), but would the shuddering be caused by ABS? warped rotor? bad caliper? bad ball joint? bad cv?
Help!
thanks in advance.
Any thought
