I had one of these as my first car. Excellent choice!

I like it - it gives the car a completely different feel. They didn't the settings quite right being far too soft naturally, which the DCC Slider Mod resolves, but it really adds to the character of the different profiles. Comfort really soaks up rough road, while Sport makes it much firmer and it responds really well. But if a great car came up and it didn't have it, it wouldn't be a gamechanger. Its nice to have variety but we ultimately tend to hone to what we like and leave it at that. Try with and without and see what you think.

As I asked in another post, I'm looking how to enable GEM, I need it to try enable Android Auto.. I've no cable, is there any way to do it via SD?

Hello, can anybody provide me MST2_EU_SK_ZR_P0253T? Thank you so much!

Hi Guys, just bought myself/my lad a 2006 Mk1, 1.2HTP, 12V Fabia. Needs plenty of work, but hope to keep you all updated as we work to get it into good mechanical condition for his 17th birthday. Look forward to chatting, Rick.

seat cupra heated seat fit It was a while ago that I did this retrofit myself, I pulled together a bunch of useful links, one of which I noted for coding, it may be of use. It is off a seat cupra forum but should work:

Found it, scroll to 4 mins 50 ish

I agree on the diesel or small petrol engines.. Incidentally if you turn the heater to full hot and keep revs below 1500 they dont overheat when stuck so you can get it to a workshop. I was looking at a EA 888 Gen3 B, The pump is on the gearbox side and run from a rubber belt. The plastic housings crack (bit like something they were smoking when it was designed) causing minor leaks initially, then easily spotted pink crystal formation from the Evo coolant. You need a flexible inspection camera to see them without stripping parts off in the early stages. Look at BAZ Merideths YouTube channel where he did a pump on an L&K in the last year or so, shows the housing cracking up close.

I see I dont have obd eleven I want activate on VCDS

Dont suppose theres an auto power off setting or something similar in radio. The radio may have reset to default if battery was disconnected so isnt rebooting after ignition? Alasdair

I need this doing and have been quoted £1600 by a local indy specialist.... do you mind sharing details of your garage?

I would not have specified DCC, but it came on the dealer's demonstrator that I ended up buying. I find it quite useful and versatile.

It's not straightforward at all, Fabia block had been modified quite substantialy to fit the larger crankshaft. From my memory, a centimeter or so has to be taken off the counterweights to fit into 1.3 block, the axial bearing is on a different main bearing, the timing chain sprocket is different and flywheel has 6 holes instead of 4.

Thanks for the info, I guess I will have to 'suck it and see'. Worst case I suppose I could create an alternative fixing arrangement for the cover with clips or screws but will need to see it on the ground after the pads have gone in. I've ordered the pads although despite showing stock on ebay he has advised that none are available and they are 'In manufacture'. I'm not desperate but may have to look elsewhere at some point if there is no sign of dispatch.

When we collected and drove our new Kodiaq PHEV home the other day we noted that the wife's phone case stopped her phone from sitting flush in against the surface in the wireless charger, but she could not be bothered to remove it from the case to see if the charging would improve from the apparent very slow rate. The blurb for our car says that the wireless chargers are cooled. Will probably experiment with all that when we go on a long trip in just over a week.

I can't find any help about enabling via SD GEM mode. Any help about that?

DCC is amazing if u ask me. It controls both compression and rebound of the shocks, electronically. Multiple levels of shock control - Comfort, Normal & Sport. With the DCC Slider Mod, this increases to 15 levels of shock control. In addition, DCC is also linked to Steering, Braking and Headlights. Mine is still behaving after almost 10 yrs now, despite being lowered for 7+ yrs.

Ive never had DCC, on my second superb and Quite happy with it without. A nice to have from my perspective but I dont know any different! Costs wise its much cheaper to replace struts for standard suspension if anything fails.

I wondered if maybe there was a noise (electrical) suppression component missing from this starter. Can buy clip on ferrite cable filters very cheaply, might be worth trying on radio power wiring, if there's space.

Hi everyone, Can I fit the 78 mm stroke crankshaft from a 1.4 8V MPI (Fabia/Felicia) into a Skoda Favorit 1.3 block? If it is possible, how straightforward is the swap and what are the main things I need to watch out for (block clearance, conrods/pistons, flywheel/clutch fitment, etc.)? Thanks in advance!

Do you have 'Optimised Battery Use' enabled? This helps maintain the 12V by topping up from HV battery when required.

Su8perb owner here but its much the same: 2- Seems to be a known bug. Watch out for it randomly changing settings. Mine occasionally turns of the autohold brakes. 3 - I suspect these are fromn the "Traffication" system. Lookm in the apps on the car to find the Trafffication app an turn off the alerts there. 5 - If I'm using navigation from Carplay for any time I always use a cable for charging. If nothing wlse the phone gets really hot when navigating and wireless charging which doesnt do the overal battery life any good.

Will follow your tip when i get the car back from the mechanic \m/. Thank you D.FYLAKTOS

Hey there Chaps, I am getting the same issue . Skoda Superb Elegance 2012 plate. "Software Download- Source Activated, Searching for SWL Image" Would it be possible to send over the software link so I can burn it onto a CD. Many thanks (sorry re posted with photo and tags for the guys). @pab567 @varooom
