it's the over tightened beyond 120nm spec that will kill them as when you try to loosen them it will start to slip and becomes rounded inside.

Also had experience of a lost Mcgard locking bolt key a few months back and I didn't have the code either so I thought I was screwed but a quick call to the Mcgard customer service centre in Germany I was able to get replacement key made up and sent over within 3 working days for around £15, hence I recommend Mcgard ones.

Cheers mate.

Mcgard was my 1st choice.

But only chose Skoda due to price and it seems the Mcgard nuts are a bit shallow (the wavy groove)?

I could be wrong though ...

It's taken me a week to read this thread after my own Superb purchase! I can only say how gutted I am you sold Audrey! It was like a soap opera I didn't want to end. What am I going to do tomorrow?!

That's one hell of an aerial on the back there!...

It's not an aerial; it's the pole that makes contact with the ceiling grid.
