Help: Key Not Found error on 13 plate 2.0 tdi Elegance
IainJ replied to Lord_Lucan's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
We had the same problem with a key fob battery draining for no apparent reason and had to replace it every couple of days. Thinking it was 'damp', I removed the battery and soaked the fob in contact cleaner overnight. It has worked perfectly since. Meths might do just as well. -
Hi I tried Skoda Superb 2 boot lid and this came up https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145176194700?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=2agxoap_stu&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=gGVzwLtXRLS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP

Hi Mine's a 1.6 diesel Greenline and recently has the master cylinder replaced at about 220,000 private miles. (Not a taxi). Otherwise, a new a.c. compressor last year and 3 timing belts. Fingers crossed still going strong.
-
Update. The AA man got it wrong. The pedal stayed down the next day and changing gear became impossible. I had the master cylinder replaced and it's good again. I recommend Stuart at Speedy Clutch of Hyde, Greater Manchester.
-
Thanks Derbyshirebod. Well, the AA man released the pedal by heaving it free, spraying with release oil and lubricant and then vigorously pumping it. He says it probably won't even need to go to the garage but I'll have it checked anyway. He did say that if it were to happen again then pull the pedal up and pump it for a few minutes, which would lubricate the 'piston' behind the pedal. He was full of praise for Skodas.

Mark 2 Greenline manual gearbox. The Clutch pedal is depressed to the floor and won't spring back. So it's locked in reverse. The AA are on their way but I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what the extent of the repair is likely to be. Thanks in advance

Hi, ATS does it for £70.

Air conditioning fault code B10ABF0.
IainJ replied to IainJ's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hi. I finally had this diagnosed and repaired (needed a new compressor - thanks Gremlin170) by Damian. He's based in Chester and covers Liverpool, Manchester etc Mobile +44 7786 028602. He visited home, diagnosed the problem and came back a few days later with a brand new Denso compressor. Job done. -
Hi. My air conditioning has been very poor recently. When I went to a local garage they found it didn't need re-gassing but it had fault code B10ABF0 - Refrigerant pressure - lower limit not reached. They had no idea how to fix it so can anyone recommend a good air conditioning specialist in Manchester? Many thanks

When I pair my Pixel 6 Pro (Android 12), it cuts the phone connection so that the signal icon on the top line is crossed out and the Maxidot message "Telephone is not available" message appears. I've tried forget from the phone. Any ideas? Thanks Solved! Just decline the option to allow car to access phone's SIM card.

Hi, The front passenger seat offers little support when driving along country lanes etc and I wondered if there are compatible Recaro type seats from the VAG range or after market seat covers which would offer better support and if so what complications could there be. Many thanks.

You might be able to remove the cover on the end of the handle to reveal the keyhole and Bob's your uncle. -
Satnav app with speed warning and lane guidance
IainJ replied to Goderich's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Hi, have you tried Google maps or Waze for navigation. Both show your speed, the speed limit and have lane guidance and are free. -
Hi. I've have had this rattle for a few months and in desperation, was about to remove the boot/trunk liner. Just by chance I saw that shock absorber top cover had come away and was free to rattle about. Problem solved! I've secured it with some duct tape which will probably last another 5 years. Hope this helps.

It's taken me 6 years to find these answers. Thank you. -
Hi. I'm stuck as I can't find any instructions for doing this on the the Superb 11. I took off the only to find that the plate that the window motor is attached to is behind the inner leaf of the door panel and too big to remove through the cut-out! Sounds like I have to remove all the trim from the window surround, take the motor etc off the front of the plate, take the plate out from the slot at the top of the window to replace the wire. Here's a photo of where I got to. Any help would be gratefully received!

Is this something you can do on all Superb lls? I can't get it to work on my '62 reg Greenline. Thanks Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk -
Hi I'm new to the Skoda family having just got a Superb Elegance Greenline 2. I am very impressed with its specifications and keen to get to know all its whistles and bells! IainJ
