hi to everyone, i went over to the dark side for a couple of years lol and have now decided it was time to get another skoda so i have got my self a (2013 superb estate 4x4 cr 2.0 tdi 170bhp) is there anything i need to keep an eye on or look for on this year and model ? any heads up on this model would be appreciated ? cheers kev

thanks chaps ! all the info is appreciated some say a little knowledge can be dangerous in the wrong hands lol but it gives me a phew things to think about cheers kev

first of all thanks for taking the time to explain things, this is the problem I am having I don't use my cars very much full stop and if I do it will be short trips but where I am in two minds about in-between the beginning of June to the end of august I do a fair bit of traveling up and down the country, I can do in the reign of 1,000 miles plus on one go some are a little bit less but all pretty big miles using like 2x full tanks of fuel. this is where I am struggling to make the choice petrol or diesel, it doesn't matter for the rest of the year as I don't use my car that often but having a car that will only return 35mpg or so on the motorway could prove a bit pricy when I start doing lots of miles June/ July/ august I don't know what the petrol engines are capable mpg. I don't really like small engines in cars as a lot of them can feel under powered I prefer something that will pick its skirts up a bit and go. any advice would be appreciated ? cheers kev

is there a problem with the emissions on the cr engine ? is there a recall on them ? or is it up to the car owner to sort out? dose this problem need to be done for the mot test? dose the pd engine have the same problem? cheers kev

right thanks for reply ! can any one advise on what I need to check or look for when I go to see one?

is there a way of looking for my self if the car has a pd or a cr engine fitted i.e will it be on the log book or stamped on the engine some where ? I may be looking for a 2.0 diesel superb estate soon something around a 2010 or 2011 model and I am trying to do a little research on what I need to look for when viewing one or anything I need to be watch out for ? cheers kev.
