Help - Heko Wind Deflectors - any good?
HoneyMonster65 replied to numskull's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Ask your Dealer if they have any KCD509001. This is apparently Skoda part number for them and see if they have the writing on them. These are the hekos which writing is more noticeable some angles and invisible others. -
Help - Heko Wind Deflectors - any good?
HoneyMonster65 replied to numskull's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Another user of the Heko deflectors here. Drive with window slightly open brilliant stops the rain coming in. Also parking up in hot weather can drop all windows 1cm and not noticeable from outside. But do find with windows closed a slight increase in wind noise, not unbearable but definately there. Also SuperbiRL142 where did you get rear bumper protector for FL model? -

Meguiars leather cleaner and conditioner worked for me removing biro on a previous car with grey leather upholstery. Used cotton buds and just kept gently rubbing over the scribble. -
Well finally done a tow of some distance with our Superb. Have to report more than happy with the results. The combination is a large one Superb Cr170 4x4 Dsg Estate and Adria Astella 8 metres long 2.5 wide. The car has wiring all enabled by dealer for trailer stability and the van has an alko Trailer control system as well. Sitting at average 52 mph over 300 miles it returned low to mid 30s mpg. A damm site better than my previous Vauxhall antaras 19mpg. So if anyone had any doubts on towing capability i can highly recommend the Superb

Towbar preparation option - worth it or not?
HoneyMonster65 replied to Twelvebears's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
I was advised by dealer not to bother as they could do it cheaper and fully integrate it which they have. Also if you look at asterix next to pre fit, it says this is a single electrics unsuitable for split charging. So if you want fridge and battery charger it is no good. So i got the westfalia detachable and 13 pin electrics fitted by dealer before collection. -
Skoda Superb - Winter Tyres and Rims
HoneyMonster65 replied to doleawg's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
I went for a set of Audi 16" alloys from fleabay and new Nokian WR A3 205/55x16 on my elegance estate, safely stored on wheel tree at moment awaiting November again -
I use a Thule roofbox and a set of the Aldi £25 bars, not low profile i know. But as i remove bars and lift roofbox off still attached to bars does me. If i was having crossbars on all the time i would want the whispbars.

Ordering D-Day approaches!
HoneyMonster65 replied to Twelvebears's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
I would recommend the hill hold control with a DSG as seen some saying they get roll back when they come off brake on hills without it. Having seen one metal grey in flesh that is also a stunning colour. -

Only gone and done it!
HoneyMonster65 replied to StuartTunstall's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Excellent hopefully not too much longer now. Mine took six weeks from build date week, to actually being at the dealers. Still loving it, 4x4 feels so planted when whizzing along country lanes. -
I have Milenco http://www.milenco.com/products/noseweight-gauge/ and Jockey wheel with built in gauge http://www.towsure.com/product/Jockey_Wheel_with_Integral_Nose_Weight_Guide?gclid=CL7euaiw8b0CFbLMtAodFEcAjw. As stated always go by the lowest given weight either from car spec or towbar. I have westfalia detachable which says 100kg however limiting factor is car at 80kg, Have mine set at 80kg on the milenco which reads as 75kg on the jockey wheel. Van is an Adria Astella which has max weight of 1800kg, 8 meter length on single axle and 2.5m wide I keep van at 1700kg and a 80kg noseweight also have alko ATC fitted.

Rear ended someone at a roundabout
HoneyMonster65 replied to ILOVEMYSUPERB's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
I got Blackvue DR400G HDII couple of months back brand new for £100 on Amazon, was suspicious as seemed too cheap but seems like i got a bargain. I use a Waeco power saver and have it hard wired to fuse box cable run up side then tucked into headlining so only small bit of cable noticeable by mirror. Pic quality very good can clearly see number plates. -
Parked next to pre FL in supermarket today and my FL model same as Kilkenny slightly higher.
