My new MK4 L&K Combi arrived last Wednesday, i did all the paperwork on Friday and today (Saturday) it was shipped off to get PPF and Modesta Ceramic Coating. I only drove it 6km. I have noted so far. I ordered the Variable Boot Floor (VBF). In my MK3 (that I still have for a while), when you lift up the VBF there is another floor covering the spare wheel, giving options to store things out of sight. In the MK4 this second floor covering is NOT there. When you lift the VBF on the MK4, you meet the spare wheel straight away. When I noted this at the garage I raised it as an issue, almost expecting them to confirm it was a mistake and it should have another floor covering the spare wheel, but apparently that's the way its presented. I looked at a basic Combi without the VBF in the showroom, removed the boot cover on this one and put it into the MK4 and it fitted almost perfectly (except from the two back corners). I was given a price of €130.00 for this Standard boot floor to cover the spare wheel. I phoned Skoda directly to raise the issue and i am awaiting a response, but I reckon they will tell me I need to buy the standard floor covering. The Sub-Woofer in on top of the spare wheel now instead of being in the left compartment in the boot. I reckon the sound system is not as good as the MK3 because of this. Other than that , I will need to wait till I get the car back next week to look at the rest. So far I think its like going from Microsoft Word 2016 to Microsoft Word 2019. A bit more refined. I not mad about the dash layout, but i expect it will frow on me. This MK4 is my 3rd L&K Combi. WhatsApp Video 2024-07-27 at 19.31.27_632b71c6.mp4

What's the spec ?

I started in 2014 with a Superb L&K Combi. after 230,00km I updated to a 2017 Superb L&K Combi and this has at present (03.06.24) 396,000km. I drive aprox 50,000km per year. I have gotten great value out of these cars. I just ordered a new 2024 L&K Combi , Diesel. I ordered all the extra options available in Ireland! I contacted 7 Skoda dealers in Ireland and requested their best price for the spec I wanted. There are very few L&K's sold in Ireland. There was €5,800 in the difference between the highest and lowest quotation! PM me if you want more details!

Just ordered 2024 L&K Combi .. with all the extra options available in Ireland! Expected delivery late July / early August. When will a 2024 Superb Forum be up ? Where's the best place to get accessories?

€1800 for OEM , sounds right for the DCC, springs and mounts and installation from the main dealer. (Although the main dealer in limerick quoted me €1300 for replacing front DCC only . (no springs or mounts) I have ordered the bilstein DCC replacement, but I am already waiting 5 weeks and it will take another couple of weeks I guessing. I getting all 4 corners done with mounts, (keeping original springs) , bushes etc for €1800.

Cool. I will look them up

Is there a website we can order these ?

Hi k. I probably asked the same questions to too many people and looking around was causing me brain damage. I figure (suspect) that the suspension was going or gone before the warranty was up and the main dealer just didnt tell me. Anyway there's 216k KLM on her or 134k miles . DCC suspension is expensive. I try to look after the car and I was unimpreesed that the main dealer didn't offer the advice of replacing mounts and bushings etc, so I have placed an order with Dalton's in portlaoise for Bilstein B6 . I getting front and rear done. Due to availability, brexit, C19 , and couriers, the parts are not due in till mid may , (its now mid April) . cost is euro 1850 ish . My Xeon front headlight is flickering every so often also . so I need both bulbs replaced .. Circa euro 100 each Just got new tyres at €160 a corner Diesel is going up. Ffs.. Shoot me

This is an education. Thank you! I have a 2017 L&K M3 with 215,000 KLM. The front shocks have stated leaking and I need to replace them. I am looking at upgrading them but want to do it right and get the right costings. I am looking at the Bilstein B6 DampTronic as you suggested Should I change the factory fitted springs. I would appreciate your advice. Email.. [email protected]

Definitely go for Canton sound.. It's superb
