Octavia III VCDS Adaptations - tried and tested
Looks correct to me Out of curiosity, what was Leuchte26NSL LA72-Lichtfunktion A 26 set to before you changed it?

MIB1 infotainment screen is dying
Although I have used cars equipment previously without issue, the link was only included to show how I came by the part number Out of the options, Aliexpress would be my choice to buy a replacement assuming it's the correct part

MIB1 infotainment screen is dying
£60 is cheaper than eBay's prices for the display. You can probably list the headunit with your old display and sell it for £60+ making the repair free If you do want to just replace just the LCD panel, I think it'll be this: https://www.cars-equipment.com/en/shop/parts-8/oem-lcd-navigation-display-7inch-for/ Based on the C058GVT03 part number, it's ~£90 with shipping on eBay or ~£30 with shipping on Aliexpress. Before you order anything, you really should take the display apart and check exactly what part number the LCD panel has...

Virtual Cockpit retrofit
On a 2015 you'll probably need a new gateway and BCM as mentioned here: https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/485142-virtual-cockpit-retrofit/?do=findComment&comment=5500623 Not sure if you need a trim piece on a Superb? For the navigation maps to show, you'll need a MIB2.5 headunit and add a MOST (optical) cable. Ideally, you should also fit MFSW buttons with a 'view' button to get it working 'as factory'. Yes, on a new VC you can program the mileage to match. On a used VC, it can be increased but not decreased.

LW radio?
I think it only supports MW on AM regardless of coding...

Re-Map and the fix?
It'll depend on the tuner. You don't need to remove the fix but it seems recommended. Assuming there is an easily available pre fix update for your ECU, it shouldn't take long to revert it. Probably worth speaking to your tuner to see what they do based on your ECU.

Head unit in 2015 Yeti - which wires do what?
If I recall, I made my own Have a look on aliexpress for 40 pin to 52 pin quadlock adaptors, as long as it's the correct way round, it should be fine.

Install 565 920 790 C Cockpit
Have you compared the modules in your car to a Kodiaq with a the C rev cluster fitted?

Oil and coolant temp seem too low.
The coolant temperature sensor doesn't control the temperature, it only reports it and helps with air/fuel mixture, timing etc. You can see the effect when I replaced the thermostat on my CR140 here: Given both your coolant and oil temps are low, I suspect the thermostat is stuck open. The coolant gauge should be bang on 90'C once the engine is warmed up, the oil temp changes but I'd expect 90-105'C to be pretty normal.

Ideally both for the adaptation map so we can see before and after values 👍

Anyone else get this random speed warning/info pop-up from time to time ?
I'd normally only expect that when crossing borders 🤔

Passenger mirror dip in reverse - sorted
With a memory motor, it should revert to the saved position. It's plausible the initial reverse position is the same as the nomal one so it won't work until you've put the car in reverse and moved it whilst in gear. Without a memory motor, I'd expect it to just dip an amount. As I mentioned before, I think something changed in the control module which means that newer versions no longer support dipping on non-memory motors..

Passenger mirror dip in reverse - sorted
The mirror motor is a 'dumb' device so doesn't report it's part number anywhere. You'll probably be able to check by removing the passenger side mirror glass as you'll be able to see the motor. If you can't see the part number, count the wires, 3 is a non-memory version, 7 has memory I believe there are different part numbers for LHD and RHD cars so double check before getting the part mentioned by Sasha

Another headlight problem
That all seems happy. Sometimes it's easy to miss the headlight dance but I can't see anything to suggest a problem. Maybe have a helper jump in the car and start it while you watch the projectors to see if they move? Obviously from the side so they don't completely blind you

Upgrading to a DAB head unit..
@Getting100 - I think you've wondered in to the wrong section as your experiences with a MK3 Octavia aren't relevant to a MK2 Superb... Factory headhunts for a MK2 Superb don't have component protection, nor do they support CP in other modules. The only exception would be a MIB PQ STD2 (Amundsen) headunit that was fitted to the later Yeti, that does use CP and can be used in a MK2 Superb if it's been hacked. I'm sure Pab will sort you out but if not, it might be worth creating a new thread in a more appropriate section @bifferbob - it'll depend which after market headunit you choose to which functions are supported. Fitting should be pretty simple, you might need a few adaptors (wiring, antenna etc) and a new facia. Make sure you don't turn the ignition on while the airbag connector on the stereo facia is unplugged. If you do, the airbag light will come on and you'll need VCDS or similar to reset it

Default driving mode change on MY19 [NOT solved]
Correct, VCDS and OBDeleven can't apply datasets. ODIS is a dealer level software and normally used with a VAS5054a or VAS6154 dongle. I doubt a dealer would help as you'd need to use ODIS to download the correct dataset from Skoda, find it on their computer, modify it, then apply it using ODIS... VCP can also upload datasets assuming you can find one that's suitable for your car. I have a VAS5054a but I don't have online access to Skoda so I can't download the original datasets.

Octavia III VCDS Adaptations - tried and tested
Can you post a full autoscan and an adaption map from 09?

Default driving mode change on MY19 [NOT solved]
Correct, it's now possible to tweak certain parameters in the dataset for cars with a 3Q0...Q or above CAN gateway including the Superb, Octavia and Kodiaq. The hardest part is getting the original dataset for your vehicle. Over time, there will probably be a selection but I think choices are limited atm. My gateway was updated from L to Q and I was given an appropriate dataset. I've since tweaked it so the vRS mode button only lights in sport. Preventing it reverting to normal is an easy enough change too 👍

Infotainment retrofitting
It uses different maps but I thought you could use any SD/USB to update it? I believe if you put the correct maps on the Amundsen SD, the Columbus will still be able to use/copy them without an issue?

New to Superb II FL from Octavia III - is this normal?
You should update your VCDS software The BT is built into the RNS-315 so upgrading to a RNS-510 will need an extra wiring loom and BT module. If you haven't already, I'd clear the codes to see which, if any, come back. The haldex issue might be corrosion on the control board PCB, at least based on similar codes from some Audi's. If it's under warranty, I'd get it checked out.

Has anyone removed this blanking plate?
It's not a blanking plate - it's the front of the MIB3 headunit...

New to Superb II FL from Octavia III - is this normal?
If you have an RNS-315, you should check if it's using inbuilt BT or a separate module. The RNS-510 doesn't have BT built in, so if it's the former, you'll also need a wiring loom and BT module which will get pricey. The MIB STD2 units are much better than the RNS-315 and RN-510, they should have BT built in and If you get a recent one, you'll also get android auto and carplay Might be worth adding a VCDS autoscan if you can.

Reversing camera
I've used AiDU Auto a few times, including for a very similar highline RVC for my MK3 Octavia which works perfectly. Fitting: Calibration:
