Unfortunately I don't have that laptop anymore. Currently I have Dell
Precision M5520 with Ubuntu 16.04 pre-installed and almost everything is
working excellently with its TB16 dock.

(3440x1440 resolution through HDMI is not always working at first try, but
after disabling and enabling few times the external display from System
Settings > Display, it starts to work. But that might be some hardware or
cable issue.)

I am using mainline kernel v4.12.5 installed with Ukuu.

Thunderbolt support for PCs is included in v4.13-rc1 and later kernels.
Do you have a possibility to try the latest mainline kernel?

Note the userspace support is not yet ready so you need to authorize
device manually. See for example:https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest
/admin-guide/thunderbolt.html how it can be done.
