  1. Thank you, on every point, speedo/100kmh <> 103.2kmh/, chains, ins. Yes, I am considering 6.5Jx17 ET41 with 215/60R17 . Tyre choice is little bit narrow, mostly SUV/VANs, for the moment is Dunlop Sport 5 Suv. Our Superb have road protection and with little bit bigger tyres will look very nice Is it possible with that size , to get comfort, safe and stable ride, as well?
  2. Hi, Is it ok to use for the winter 215/60 R17, instead of 215/55 R17 ? What about snow chains ? Do you have such experience ? Cheers George
  3. Colleagues, Pictures are not available, could you attach some? Cheers George

  5. My latest remarks, Sealing roof doesnt help for me, i have water inside, now in less quantity than before and only in upper windshield location, just below roof panel. After sealing windshield water is still there, but it is very low quantity, just few drops, but this is misleading for the quantity, because of the roof panel form. @elisetype25, you could see above what materials i have used for sealing the roof. Don't use silicone or glue. it is only one way road with permanent fixing. Wait for good weather for few weeks, or use close place, temp should be more than 10o . Cheers George
  6. @here, whole roof packing for me is not very good idea, will be a lot of efforts for installation and removal @United232 has pointed the issue with ingress and pdf has clear instructions, that will solve the issue with leaking pano roof. Unfortunately for me, i have very long way to solve my issue, i packed all possible roof ingress, pano, rails and now front windshield is main suspect. Even you don't have roof, it is worth looking for white spots in the door sealing, this is beginning of the waterfall and you should take measures. Also checking black roof channel "sealing" for gaps and reinstall/replace is good idea. I am looking for good rubber sealing replacement or other solution. More news from me, i still had water ingress, so the water is not coming from: - pano roof, after packing the pano . - roof rails mountings, after packing roof rails, / for removing use M6, Torx is not suitable / Water is coming inside from front upper part of the roof, just behind sun visors . After each packing i have very gentile test in the jet wash, but still there is water, little relief is that water is not that much. Now last suspect before having cabrio and going to the south, is front windshield + the channel with black "sealing". Black "sealing" is not very reliable, see picture with a big gap. I packed this area and later will go for a test wash. Not to forget, i will apply capt tolley , in good weather /we have very good days with sun, but it is still winter/ Cheers Moris
  7. @Stubod - it is cheap, it costs 5 eur in Bg, in Uk will be almost the same, i got 126/40 cm, orafol stone guard, asked several times for good removal options of the material, almost half left - for whole roof is not very good idea, not to mention efforts for cleaning and installing, soap water and tools, also removing will be chalenging - permanent solution is not very good idea , also need to think for comfort module / open/close windows/ , dont forget to apply in the middle , and use double for - use captain think in the summer/ dry conditions , it is best option, i am waiting for summer or warm garage for atleast week/s to dry and *my remarks from application Do you see guys, other option of ingress, in the roof, not in the pano? Front window, rails mounting, some other interesting place ? You could see condensation, it is not very good, i cleaned and left it dry for several hours. I am asking, because , i got water inside, from roof and even after application of the folio. It was after water jet clean, i was very gentle, from distance and got water inside from both sides. Definitely no water from stripes, I have checked and they are very good condition, only condensation in the middle. Anyway way , i am waiting for dry conditions and removing roof panel to see from inside . Cheers George
  8. Good news for you Some observations, water is coming in the roof mainly from outside canal, and then into the ingress point, @United232 had put very nice description and pictures. nothing more to add. Removing white arch plastic covers /direction is up and then push inside, there are instructions on internet/ will help you observing actual situation . With arch plastics water is going directly and hidden under front seat carpets, which is not very nice. Thank you, @United232 and others, i tried without success, will wait for dry conditions. Even on no rain conditions , in the morning there is water on the roof and it is impossible to dry. Now we have snow, so waiting for better weather or if i could find warm park place in the winter. I have consulted with car folio store and now i am using scratch transparent folio for the roof. I bought long roll and then cut 4-5cm, 1/2 m2 is enough for all lines. Folio is flexible and will be be removed with help of hot air later. Cheers George
  9. ^^^ Same with me, I have applied tolley several times, without success. Today it is raining and have water in both sides from the roof. I will try to get access/view from below and see exact egress point/s. Cheers George
  10. Thanks @GPW, will hope for no rain/snow. It seems, it is design and construction issue not only for Yetis, but for VW/Skoda/Seat/Audi fitted with these , as well. Some info from product ratings https://www.amazon.co.uk/Captain-Tolleys-Creeping-Crack-sealer/dp/B003T6EJ9A/ there are comments in german, for the same problem as ours. Follow google for "Panoramadach abdichten" or "Mein Panoramadach am Passat war undicht. Mit diesem Wundermittel konnte ich es abdichten." will lead you to https://www.motor-talk.de/forum/panoramadach-undicht-rahmen-selbst-abdichten-t5968992.html where you will find a lot of info /use copy/paste for translation for translate.google.com/. Here you could see more details without dissembling anything + nice comments in german Cheers George
  11. Many thanks for very useful info, i have ordered Captain Tolley .... Until i wait for Captain Tolley to arrive, What i can do to stop leaking or to use some other well accessible glue instead? I dont have access to garage or to keep it at dry place, How to keep Captian Tolley not washed out after application? Cheers Moris
  12. Hi, I remember something like km/days or whatever comes first, so you need to check this with your dealer. In the context of last message, my car is on flexible interval and always 30000km = km in odometer + km left on maxidot. Is this valid for formula for you all? What is cause to get less days left as emix2001? Cheers George
  13. Hi Future Lower Grill Owners, We will need : - a person/s to make order and receive and post again all these grills, seems nothing but the hard part - a list of future grill owners with email and post address to receive / could be hidden and not visible to everybody, google doc, dropbox sharing / Some calculation and thoughts: - price lower grill ~ 26 - postage in UK ~ 7 - postage from Russia ~ unknown / little speculation to be ~10 / Total could be ~45. Delivery will be ~3 weeks after making order/money sent. What we are going to do next ? Nice Week moris
