@WiteWulf@cyberplace.social @teamonkey@mastodon.social Interesting that some Audi A6's come damn close to that, unladen. An A6 Allroad Quattro 3.0 TDI comes in at 1945 kg, presumably without fuel in the tank. An A6 Saloon Quattro 2.0 TDI comes in at 1980 kg. (Figures per Parkers.) However, I notice that Halford's own WWW site does not give a load rating for those chocks, which sets off alarm bells. And they look bloody small compared to your tyres, which is worrisome given the intended function. Comparable steel chocks, such as the Silverline 525748 or the Heyner UltraStop Pro, seem to only have a rating of 1000 kg per chock, which will be pushing it on those particular A6s with one pair and anything left in the car. There's a greater margin with the less massive models, of course. https://heynershop.co.uk/vehicles-service-repairs/3911-heyner-ultrastop-pro.html I'm with you on returning them, but you might find yourself up against the assertion that a laden A6 exceeds the unadvertised spec. Which A6 is it? #AudiA6 #Halfords #CarMaintenance
