2D DWG from AutoCAD works well for me. I bring it in and use it as a base to model from. I almost never use the lines from the DWG file as SU doesn't do the best with importing DWGs. I group all of the DWG lines and trace over. Once this step is over I delete the DWG file to keep the SU file from getting to "large".
As they say here in the States...."Your mileage may very"

For me it's Collada dae. Using Blender I can convert .svg to .dae and bring it to SketchUp with good results.

And why not take programs who have SKP export format ?
Moi3D (useful for transform Nubs in SKp), Bricscad, PConPlanner etc...
PconPlanner or Moi3D can be used as convertor !PconPlanner is a great resource!
