Yes send someone who has VCDS a message there is a link in my signature.

You need VCDS etc to clear the light. It came on due to you turning the ignition on with the plug disconnected

The CTS is a common failure, but ideally a scan will confirm this before throwing unnecessary parts at the car, its location can be seen in this video, it’s at the rear of the block not in the expansion tank. https://youtu.be/PlfoTKb2KHA?si=cr_818gxlawYVxEW

VCDS options on Superb III.FL
Gizmo replied to MartiniB's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Correct, which is crazy IMO, it sounds like they have been coded to be on. -

Why would you want them off? Auto lights are notorious for people driving around in poor visibility and no rear side lights. Personally I always code them to be on. -
Welcome David. TBH if you aren't going to use it regularly you are better off finding someone local to code the car for you for a few beer tokens. I imagine most things are going to be locked with SFD though, so you will need someone who can also do that (most owners won't be able to do this but it can be done with certain OBDeleven subscriptions... I personally unlock with OBDeleven then code with VCDS.) Take a look in the link in my signature for someone local to you with VCDS.

Looked and test drove a few: Enyaq vRS Coupé Drove nice, but it’s quite a tall bulky car, make sure it has the HUD. Kia EV6 Looks very nice, but no decent Matrix headlights (no distance with then) Ioniq 5 Not as nice as the EV6 ID.3 Tour (77 kWh) 3 years into ownership and it’s a nice car. ID.7 Very nice and loaded with toys, nice enough for me to order one! More and more Tesla Superchargers are being open up to other brands and they are usually cheaper (but not cheap)

About to embark on Skoda ownership, Superb L&K Estate
Gizmo replied to commievid's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Welcome, I've moved the post to somewhere more suitable. Whilst the Bilstein B6 is very impressive it would IMO be a shame to lose the DCC as I really loved it, sporty (for such a big car) when required and uber luxurious (almost boat like!) for when parents are in the car. -
280 - signs of water pump failure
Gizmo replied to KosyP's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
AIUI it's a detuned version of the TTS engine, these do suffer with water pump failure. Nothing more to add really than ALL the points Nick has just raised. -
Fitted aftermarket android stereo no sound!
Gizmo replied to shaun_thompson's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Welcome. It's more than likely going to need coding to your car with VCDS etc. I know when people upgrade to a Columbus they have to be coded.
