Flat Battery in Key Fob - Warning

My recent (non-Skoda) cars have given dashboard warnings when the battery in the key fob runs down. This gives the driver the opportunity to change the battery and to keep the key functional.

The battery in my Superb's key fob recently ran down, and it went from fully operational (working the button "plip" as well as the keyless entry) to completely flat during the course of a day at work. No warnings were displayed. I was unable to plip the car open, and had to walk to a shop, purchase a new CR2032 battery, and replace the battery in the key. Only then could I safely drive home.

This happened a week after the car had been serviced at the Skoda dealer - I'm presuming that they didn't replace the battery as part of the service.

I feel like carrying a spare CR2032 battery in case it happens again.

Given the number of alerts, warnings and other information that the Superb displays, I was surprised not to receive an indication that the battery was running down. Has anyone seen a warning in their Superb?

Model: 2024, SE L.
If it helps anyone reading this, changing the key's battery is easy once you've seen this; I managed this on a garage forecourt, using the lid of a Biro pen to release the old battery

Xenon to LED upgrade?

Hello!

I'm looking to swap out my Bi-Xenon to plug and play LEDs.
What are the best options out there that work without causing any issues?

I'm interested in swapping the bulbs in the rear aswell.

What have you done to your Superb III today?

Definitely not copper grease as it’s got an outer rubber boot, just brake silicone grease.

Think your car is around 2016? So if it’s like mine it should be good but literally your mileage may vary

I did check them and moved in and out nicely and also spun the slider screw and all good, I guess just typical rubbish OE Skoda discs, my rears a few years ago were terrible like many others but I didn’t personally change the rears

Rattle going over uneven surfaces

Brembo aftermarket brake pads - they tend to be of lower quality than Brembo pads for Brembo brakes, it has been said.

Their worst weakness is the quality of the pad backing piece which frequently seems to be slightly too small and roughly cut out whereas OEM quality pads backing pieces get punched out for accuracy - to minimise/stop this rattling.

That if is not from my personal experience, but from someone who works on/tests brake parts.
