  1. Past hour
  2. Cheers for this. Back to the TRC1070 items then. You def called it @JR RS - In my (our) defence there isn’t an AI LLM or retailer who doesn’t list everything MQB as compatible. Started going down a track-width rabbit hole. The TTS track is still thinner (by less) so the OE TTS alloy ones would still be wrong. Only car I could think with a wide track was 8Y RS3. 4mm wider overall so 2mm per side is a fraction of a degree more negative camber. Might be what these Delphi items are for? As now, trying to find OE RS3 is impossible without stumbling across a million items which are apparently compatible with RS3 and everything else (ie not at all). They look a good find though!
  3. Today
  4. It's a pain in... Main issue is that it should work as designed but it doesn't. Tbh now, when it's "fixed" I still don't really use headlights in Auto on motorway. There is to many cars and lights are going crazy. It works much more efficient on smaller roads where I can see them going on and off and nicely cutting out oncoming traffic. But it would be expected from Skoda to fix it, unfortunately its not going to happen...
  5. Hi. Same issue here. Sometimes the one in the boot lid is off at all and sometimes just goes off instead of fading away. That is left one in my case. Right one just fail to go on sometimes. Tapping with the hand solves it for a long time but it is aventually comes back to this problem. It could be wire damaged in the top rubber boot or corroded pin or loose connector at the back of actual lights caused by vibration or slamming boot. Mine is electric but apparently even slow closing could cause this. It's known issue with mk3. I just have to find time to look at this, strip the inner tailgate panel and inspect the problem. Have you managed to solve your lights by any chance? Cheers
  6. My RHD driving on a UK - left hand traffic - motorway cuts the beam at the central reservation and no one gets dazzled in the oncoming traffic and the left hand side of the road is lit up. Driving in right hand traffic with this RHD car it DOES NOT cut the beam at the central reservation - left side - and the oncoming traffic gets blinded. I guess it is the other way round with a LHD in right hand traffic. And this is the flaw of this thread.
  7. I just posted in Mario's post - I would not put those SuperPro LCAs on my Superb
  8. Tis wat I've been saying for a while now - they're too short (width-wise) for the Superb. The camber will b wrong. Delphi TC4442 and TC4443 r a good option suitable for the mk3 Superb. These Audi-spec alloy LCAs r the same width as the Passat/Superb arms, and a Passat owner in Europe recently installed them. Based on the discussions on the golfmk7 forums, these r bigger than all of the alloy Golf Mk7 sized arms available on the market, which is why the Golf guys were looking at using these wider arms to increase wheel track and camber on their track/fast street cars. I'll b changing my LCA to these once the time comes for Gandalf.
  9. Yeah that's them...they are mainly for golf. I had them on car for 2.5 years, no issues until now. Just last week i started finding things that failed prematurely because of these arms. They are inch shorter on each side compared to Superb ones. My whiteline droplinks -split, ball joints -split. Got genuine ones fitted today and tomorrow it's going for wheel alignment, next week new droplinks getting fitted (Whiteline) again. I believe you can get Audi TTS bottom arms which are aluminium but I'm done with d*cking around. You can fit them and they work but they will make everything else wear lit quicker. They will also reduce your track width by an inch on each side
  10. Looks very classy to me. I'm sure you will have a great time with her. Mine still surprises me with the performance and boot space. 🏆🏆
  11. Take left front wheel off and loosen front half of wheel arch liner. You can probably see from there.
  12. And the final three. It's been a long wait! Best wishes to everyone on the forum and thank you for all of your advice and support.
  13. Well, we have had an opportunity to do our own personal PDI on Rosie 2. And I am pleased to say that everything looks to be excellent. We had a thoroughly pleasant time at the dealership and collection is scheduled for Monday, 14 September. We are really looking forward to it. I don't want to speak too soon but, so far, I cannot fault the dealership. They have kept in touch, been professional yet personal too, and seem to have done an excellent job preparing our new car. They have treated the paintwork with the Autoglym Cerafuse protection, plus the cabin as a no cost gesture of goodwill - which is more than I expected. Preparation is key to this finish working properly and, insofar as I could tell, the paintwork was smooth to the touch of my fingers. Honestly, fingers and the sense of touch are more telling than eyes. Anyway, so far so good. My insurance with Allianz is just £247 compared to £450 for the Velar. The dealer has ordered the reversible folding boot floor, some door bins and snow chains. They have popped a second umbrella in the passenger door at no cost and they have done an excellent job fitting the Nextbase 522GW camera and rear camera. The cables are out of sight and all the roof lining is perfect, as is the A-pillar. I will need to order my winter 17" rims from Skoda Parts online because the UK importer has stopped selling them. Same for the ski sack. I have a contact there and will speak to him next week because they are EU based. They are UK VAT registered and use FedEx for delivery but they need to take the VAT at the UK rate which means a telephone call because the online portal is set up for a different foreign VAT rate. This also means that they should clear customs properly with no further duty needing to be paid. Ah, Brexit. Here are some pics. I will provide an update next week after collection. Honestly, if only I had received this service with the Range Rover dealership. I spent considerably more, even back in 2017, and subsequently.....and yet a little Skoda dealership beats them hands down! Here's hoping.
  14. i never had ones. but sure stiffer than stock.
  15. on my mk 4 you can tell which sensor it is as the sound in car plays from the relevant speaker, so if it's back left that's where the sound comes from in the car etc. Mind that may only narrow it down to two sensors, not one, I'm unsure
  16. doohut1 started following no live maps
  17. doohut1 posted a topic in Skoda Karoq

  19. No will do that tomorrow. Bit annars to get to ubder the battery
  20. I've had two windscreens replaced, one only lasted 6 weeks before some doughnut in a mini threw up a load of gravel and did two chips and as it's a heated screen it had to be replaced again, this time they put a decent one in. Beware some windscreen replacement companies replace the OEM screen with a thinner & cheaper one, this one is Saint-Gobain and is fine!

  22. Have you checked the power steering fluid level?
  23. two photes of the driveshaft from above and the stearing gasquet. Its totally dry on driveshaft and above the stearing gasquet. Also the stearing connections are dry. This is opposite side of gearbox. Gearbox side is dry. Third photo is aver the linkarm. Some newly sprayed bodypaint but you can see a section that is oilwet. So the oil is def hitting that area but i cant figure out how. It must be rinning from, most likely, above. I will be giving it to a workshop for fault search. Shall keep you posted :) Thanks help so far.
  24. The driveshaft that's in his second photo looks completely dry to me.
  25. 195/55R15 85V LAUFENN S FIT EQ+ are a sub company of Hankook so should be decent tyres. My sons mk1 fabia is basic but also so far fairly trouble free and relatively cheap to fix. These days the newer the car the more expensive it becomes to repair so I would look after the one you have. Rust is the killer everything else can be sorted Alasdair
  26. I used to own the Superb Hatchback KY69UNB which had been faultless for my 4 years of ownership. Unfortunately on 10th April I was involved in a small accident which resulted in the offside front bumper, headlight and corner bonnet being damaged. The rest of the car was in excellent condition with 37.000 miles on the clock. I was amazed when the insurance company deemed it uneconomical to repair and offered me a payment which I accepted. I now see that the car is back on the road. So if you are the new owner of the car and would like all its full service and maintenance records from new message me and I will forward on. I will keep the offer open for another 4 weeks before I dispose of them if I have had no contact
  27. Could be engine is burning oil and its gearbox oil as warrior said. The only other thing (long shot I know) would be brake/clutch fluid. Maybe pop it into a friendly garage and get them to put it on their lift to see if they can track down where its coming from. Oil has a habit of appearing a good bit away from where it started.
  28. Hi , I've a 2025 Kamiq 1.0 SE Edition and when I use my RAZR phone on the cars Bluetooth everyone says the audio is very loud and distorted at their end. Use another phone ( Samsung ) and it's fine , use that same RAZR phone in wife's Rapid and it's fine . Question where do I go from here ? The above scenario is contradictory the phones fine elsewhere and the cars fine with another phone , any ideas anyone because I'm pulling my hair out over it .
  29. Discussed multiple times. Stay away from theme
