Shouldn’t have to ask this - correct spare wheel pressure?
I have the same size spare wheel in my Superb which is set to 36 PSI.

Identity Verification problem for MySkoda app
I went to my Skoda dealer with my driving licence but i don't recall anything about any commission number at all, they just needed the driving licence for identification purposes and when happy the process was completed by them.

Standard cruise control on an ACC equipped Superb
Sometimes for no apparent reason it does this, my last one did it as well, if you keep driving it will always eventually reset itself as you have already found out, almost like the system is doing a self test and re-calibration while still driving, similar to when you turn the ignition off and on again and it has to self test itself. It's well known that snow, heavy rain and similar is too much for the sensor to handle but I've had it happen in brilliant sunshine on the odd occasion. There is the possibility a large bug, leaf or something has landed on the sensor but I've never seen any residual evidence of this happening and it has always worked again after several minutes of continued driving. There is the possibility your sensor is faulty so it will be interesting to see if any faults are logged.

Rear Wiper torn off
Don't know if this is what you are after or if it's the best price but it does have the part number, alternatively a breakers would be cheaper if you have one close by. https://www.caffynscarparts.com/superb-iii-estate-rear-wiper-arm-6243-p.asp

Standard cruise control on an ACC equipped Superb
Keep us up to date once fully tested, I may then try to find someone who could code this for me as long as it works without a problem.

Standard cruise control on an ACC equipped Superb
Have you noticed any disadvantages in any way with this new setting? Can you swap between modes like you do with ACC and Limiter while you are moving etc. Not very often but sometimes I think it would be nice to have standard cruise control, I do use the ACC a lot but sometimes when it is not available you then have to control the accelerator yourself which on a long journey can be tiresome, I can swap to 'limiter' mode but you still have to keep your foot on the accelerator. Earlier this week I covered a little over 400 miles in one day with the front sensor not working due to the snow so no ACC - does the standard cruise setting still work under these conditions?

Superb Estate 1.6Tdi MPG
Further to my above post I refilled the Adblue tank when I had a range of 650 miles left. The car display showed it could take 15.5 litres but not wanting to risk spilling any I stopped at 15.29 litres which was exactly £20 (£1.308p/litre - almost double the price of my previous refill @ 69.9p/litre). I suspect the tank has a 16 litre capacity although I can't see the tank size stated in the owners handbook other than what I posted above where it says roughly 13 litres to refill. I now have an Adblue range of 15,000 miles, so very roughly 1000 miles to a litre - my last one used double that at roughly 500 miles to a litre.

Engine oil
Open the bonnet and see what the sticker says located on the flat area just above the grille and use that oil. Why risk the possibility of putting in an oil not specified by the manufacturer. Mine may be different as I have the newer EVO engine (and its diesel) and the sticker on mine says 0w-20 so that's what it's getting if/when it needs topping up. No idea if the petrol models have an updated engine but certainly the VW petrol models do so I suspect your Superb may be the same.

TIMING BELT CHANGE - 5 YEARS
Mine new Superb came from Yeomans (although in my head I still call them Carrs Skoda). I have always been happy with their customer service.

Superb Estate 1.6Tdi MPG
Not much discipline involved on my part other than to engage the ACC which I use extensively, most of my driving is of a reasonable distance so once up to speed it sits there cruising along. As the fuel pump reading shows it took 70+ litres I think the tank could be bigger then Skoda state, my owners handbook says 'about 66 litres' - obviously it has taken 70 litres so the 66 is on the conservative side. Similar with the Adblue tank, the owners manual says it will take about 13 litres to refill, my display says I still have over 1000 miles left and it says to add 15.25 litres max when I fill it, that will be later this week so we'll see how much it takes.

Standard cruise control on an ACC equipped Superb
I also really like the ACC and use it extensively, even if I'm going a mile or two to the local shop, but every once in a while I think the standard cruise would be useful. My wife has standard cruise on her Octavia and doesn't like the ACC on my Superb, it can take a while to learn how to drive the car to make the most of the ACC.

GPS clock in France still on GMT
I don't think it works how you think (or would like) it to work. That's why it has the option of manually setting +1/+2/+3 hours etc in the time/date menu, which you have to do it yourself. If you use the search box on Briskoda you will find numerous posts regarding this subject going back several years.

Superb Estate 1.6Tdi MPG
I set myself the target of covering 1000 miles before refueling which I managed today. Still had a 20 mile range showing when I pulled onto the forecourt. Looking forward to seeing how far it will go when the summer temperatures are here in a few months time and the economy improves. I put in £120.00 which was just over 70.6 litres. Pictures below.

Your new car looks great. Is the 'manual mode' you refer to as shown in the picture below?. I thought this didn't give the option of manual cruise control but swapped between ACC and speed limiter (this is now done on the digital screen on the latest model). In my eyes the moon white has a touch of grey about it, personally I quite like it.

Skoda Connect.... doesn't.
Sounds like it needs a newer version of hardware and/or software installed. Mine uses: Device no: 3V0035820K Hardware: H22 Software: 0306 Nav: 22.12 Not sure how relevant the above is but you may want to ask your dealer should you be running the above hardware & software which works ok on my car. There may be further hardware involved such as the eSim unit, aerial etc that needs updating as something obviously isn't matching up when talking to the Skoda servers or app. Have you set the permissions to maximum on the infotainment system - just a thought.

Superb 280 First Service Interval
That may have been the case a long time ago, and if you Google it you can still buy running in oil now, but this is mostly for older rebuilt engines where the components available don't have the same qualities as modern engine components so far as material and machining technology go.
