don't know what a slave cylinder is but no, just the flywheel. btw, still looking for a garage😁

I'm in London but i might be able to travel up to 2h journey. would help a lot if you recommend someone that you already used to replace your flywheel and you were happy.

Anyone had any experience with a garage replacing their flywheel? I have a 2014 superb 170hp dsg. Found a Sachs flywheel online for £310 which I think is a good price, but the garage I found said they won't fit it unless I get the parts from them. Now they keep delaying me probably because I was looking to have it replaced cheaper. They quoted me £800 for a LUK flywheel including the gearbox oil and filter change. But they keep delaying me! I called a few others I found online but they either can't do it or they don't have the software. I didn't know it needs software adjustment after its been fit, or at least this is what they told me. Does anyone know a reliable garage that can do the job, roughly for the same price, or I can provide the flywheel.

It happened twice in almost 2 years for me and i left it flashing (not that I could do anything, unless I stop the car) and after about 2-3 minutes started working. follow this very kind gentleman's advice and do a restart. i did one even if it was working fine after the flashing episode.

no, how do I do that?

hello fellow skoders, this is the second time when this happens, first time happened last year in march. so initially the radio was dead today when i started the car and no buttons worked. after some driving, it started over and was flashing as in the video. 2-3 mins later it came back to life working as usual. i didn't get the chance to see if the touch screen was working. is it sick? will it die soon? i anyway didn't like it too much as it was really slow. i might consider those android replacement. the radio is the one with satnav and tv. the car is a skoda superb 2014. and that short creepy sound is my little one moaning in the back.

Has anyone else received a recall letter from skoda? I find it strange that a physical part will be fixed with a software update.

that left metal thing where you can also see a part of that finger is the door’s hinge. hope this can give you an idea whereabouts was it stranded. or to be more precise, it is just where the bonnet handle is.

WOW!!! what the hell is that crap? i didnt even notice that!! the funny thing is that picture was taken with the iphone, uploaded on google photos and then downloaded on my pc from g photos. i was able to open it no issue, but i have a mac. now im writing this post from my phone and uploaded from it and it looks its a jpeg now.

the issue was a stranded tube of the drainage "system". it worked like that since manufacture and by time it collected dust and got stuck. the mechanic cut that part and replaced it with a L shape aluminium pipe and everything works like a charm now. but maaan, the amount of water inside, jesus. hopefully soon i will have the required time to dry it as well. the back footwell was flooded because the water travelled to the back when the car was moving. mystery solved, no silicon, no sealing, pano still works but with the regular and usual "cranks" and "clicks" noise now and then. but no matter what, i will never buy another car with pano, regardless of the brand. so if this helps anyone, your pano might be ok, its just a damn tube that got stranded when they assembled the car.

the car i want to get, a 9 seater mercedes is priced 21500 on the dealer, while on webuyanycar you only get 12500. i know dealers have higher prices, but i will never buy form a private seller a car worth over 5k. i have my reasons i was really hoping to be the drain blocked and i will check that tomorrow with a mechanic. the thing is even if i wanted to get it fixed (which i dont), i dont have the time to do it. i know there were some issues with the pre-facelift model on the pano, i just hoped this one doesnt. thanks a lot for everything, all feedbacks help a lot making a final decision. one thing is CLEAR, i will never get a pano roof on any car ever.

so a 2014 L&K is worth less than 5K? regardless of the mileage, because it looks people roll back the mileage like filling up the fuel tank these days. when i got mine at 80k miles, there was a hole under the carpet where your heel rests, which i doubt it would happen after 80k miles. bough from skoda dealer. so seriously, less than 5k? I will smash it to the wall and get a lot more from insurance. webuyanycar offered 4k. I will be happy with 6k, you think there's no chance to get that much? the idea was to fix the leaking and part exchange it for another car. i was offered £6900 from the dealer, but he doesnt know about the leaking.

Thanks everyone. After seeing that pdf and the work that needs to be done, i think i will put the car up for sale. Its a 2014 superb 2l diesel, dsg 170 hp, L&K. Silver. About 150k miles. Anyone knows how much I could get for the car, considering the leaking issue? Or, anyone interested?

Hello everyone, about 2-3 weeks ago, while reversing from my driveway ive notice some water dripping on my feet as well some on the front passenger's side. Before water dripping, I hear a noise coming from the rear end that sounded like a bottle emptying. Since then, every time when it's raining and the car does NOT move, water comes in on the front and rear passenger side. I have no idea where the rear side comes from, its just soaking wet. However, no water comes on the driver's side. It was just once. While I guess it is the drainage of the pano, I have no idea where to look for that. Does anyone know how to fix this or anyone from Romford area can have a look at it? 2014 skoda superb estate with pano.

It never crossed my mind that the panoramic (once completely closed) could leak. I was searching the forum for panoramic noises and couldnt find anything except the leaking problem. And it got me worried. Now mine doesnt leak or at least I didnt see anything so far, but reading all these leaking problems I realised that sometimes (not always) while driving and raining, I can hear the same noise that rain drops do when hitting the windscreen, coming from the left back part, around the rear left passenger area. Could this be the beginning of a leaking? Now what really bothers me the most is the cracking noise the sunroof do. Everytime when I go over bumps, potholes or uneven road or simply when there is torsion on the chassis, I hear some cranks. it reeeeeally ****es me off big time. Does anyone know what could make that noise? Nothing seems to be loose.
