The only thing I noticed was that after the update I had to update my home address to be able to use it as a destination again ... Have a nice evening. /Anders

Auto Lights - Too sensative
AndersNordh replied to jamesdevon's topic in Skoda Kodiaq MKI (2017-2023)
Hmm, that setting for me only control the automatic high beam activation and deactivation and has nothing to do with the normal main beam ... Just my five cents ... Have a nice evening. /Anders -
Hi guys, I don't remember seing this forum here at BriSkoda before so just thought I would say "Hi" in here ... Have a really nice day! Kindly, Anders

Hi Chris, I had the same choice to make earlier this summer and I found that coming from the 1.8TSI DSG the 1.4 seemed a bit under powered. My choice was the 2.0TSI DSG and I do not regret it BUT the average long time fuel consumption went from 8 L/100 km's in the Superb to 9-10 L/100 km's, don't know what the smaller engine would have given me. The "Omph" is there though ... ;-) Have a nice day, Anders

Hi, could not find where to change the name shown in the Skoda Connect portal, nor did I use only a partial last name to register the service, the name which is now shown in the infotainment system when I shut down the ignition. Any other idea or am I missing something? :-) Have a nice day, Anders

Hi again guys, it had to do with replacing the battery in the key fob. All other personal settings were used in the per key fob setup but NOT the maximum startup volume. Treble, base ... everything ... but after a re-sync of the key it worked again as supposed, very strange so after a battery change, perform a sync as well even if everything seem to work. Have a nice evening! Kindly, Anders

Maps download, Skoda site useless?
AndersNordh replied to TaxiMK's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hi, I got tired of all the expensive and still old maps being sold by VW group, instead I bought a very good Asus Zenfone 2 Android phone with 5.5" screen, installed the HERE gps app that you can run totally offline, if you like, after map download, then you are free to go. And free map updates whenever you like ... Better than spending £220 per year or so for old maps ... Just my 5 pence ... -
I've bought a Dash Cam.......
AndersNordh replied to Auric Goldfinger's topic in General Automotive Chat
Hmm, too bad you don't live in southern Sweden! I would easily have thrown in an extra sugar or two ... ;-) Have a nice day! -
Mine came with exactly the same kind of insert as part of the physical spare wheel option... On a 2014 FL ... Skickat från min GT-I8190 via Tapatalk

I can't wait for the Estate ...
AndersNordh replied to AndersNordh's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Lucky you, perfect timing! I can't motivate myself, nor my bank, that I need a new car after just little over a year ... ;-) ... Still looking forward to see the Estate, guess it will be very nice since I really like the aggressive front part of the Sedan. -
... but in the mean time I lowered the Sedan ... I will have to wait until 2018 to replace my 2014 FL, can't wait ...

Side mirror folds up too much
AndersNordh replied to Suprc's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Do we know how the position is negotiated? Are there any sensors or do the electric motors generate pulses that are sent to the electronics? Skickat från min GT-I8190 via Tapatalk -
When I am on my own, then Joe Bonamassa or Eric Church on HIGH volume. When my wife is with me, a radio station with dance music is my absolute favorite ... ☺ Skickat från min GT-I8190 via Tapatalk

1.8Tsi DSG Real World Economy
AndersNordh replied to Mence's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
... one interesting thing I noticed the last summer was that the best mpg figure I have ever had was obtained while doing long stints at German autobahn at 160+ km/h .. ☺ Skickat från min GT-I8200N via Tapatalk -
1.8Tsi DSG Real World Economy
AndersNordh replied to Mence's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hi, don't know if I qualify as careful but you can see my fuel economy in my footer and click here for further details through Fuelly. And I am very happy with the smooth 1.8TSI / DSG7 combo ... Happy hunting! -
tyre warning light stays on
AndersNordh replied to tescodirect's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hi, interesting but I wouldn't say that it is the entire story since your last point starts the learning mode ... At least for all other VW group cars with the same system without actual active sensors in each tire you set the system in learning mode when you press the TPMS button long enough to hear the "pling". The following formulas are then used to set the base line and then calculate the difference from that base line. ωLF = front left, no of ABS pulses ωRF = front right, no of ABS pulses ωLR = rear left, no of ABS pulsesr ωRR = rear right, no of ABS pulses ωa = average no of ABS pulses β = change of no of ABS pulses, 0 when no change detected, 0.1 at 10%, 0.2 at 20% and so on ... In learning mode: 0-5 minutes, system detects changes >25% 5-20 minutes, system detects changes of 25% 20-120 minutes, system detects changes <25% and are fully calibrated within this time A few things to think about though ... The system gets more and more sensitive with higher speed since it measures the pulses over time and not distance, it is more likely to go off at 190 km/h at Autobahn than at 70 km/h going down an A or B road. High load in the back or at one side of the car might also trigger the system. If you enter learning mode with the wrong pressure in your tires this become the "good value", never mind how wrong it is. Just my 5 ... pence maybe ... Have a nice evening! -
Should oil look black 2months after service?
AndersNordh replied to DarrellGB's topic in General Automotive Chat
... and that is the reason why I don't like long service intervals around 30000 km's. I do an oil change half way as well ... Drive safe! -
Lightsetup Highbeam + foglights
AndersNordh replied to Webbax's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hej Peter! This sounds like an interesting possibility if available! I will look around for any VCDS option as soon as I can get hold of a Ross Tech cable again ... Never thought of it but now when it's being mentioned it sounds better and better, I am also living on the countryside outside Malmö ... Have a nice day! -
Hi again! I have just now, after almost a year, decommissioned the DSG Survey since we didn't get as many users with problems reporting as I initially thought and we couldn't see any pattern in the answers either. The result is, and will be, available through my personal site for those who like to take part of what we learned. If you like to only take part of the result, please look here for a web based version or chose the Excel file. Have a nice day!

Hi guys, will be interesting to know how many of you that will actually get a SD card in your hands for free ... At least it didn't work in Sweden, I had to buy mine ... Hope you all will have better luck!

Hi everybody! Just noticed that for model year 2014 no DQ200 related issues regarding clutch or mechatronic has been reported at http://dsg-survey.com/ yet ... Could be good news ... or just that nobody has told us yet? So far I have a leaking 2014 DQ200 but that is not a common issue ... The rest of the reports for 2014 are related to DQ250 issues. Let's hope that VW now finally has solved the main issues ... :-)
