I found my Superb: She's called Audrey!

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.
