  1. i.e. he cannot give you enough praise πŸ˜€
  2. There will be the 265PS engine in the Superb as the flagship. Sad to see that it no longer has the Golf R engine.
  3. As expected it’s got a 2.0 TSI with 195kW and 400nm.
  4. There were MY21 Kodiaq RS TDIs: https://www.autoscout24.com/offers/skoda-kodiaq-rs-diesel-0d14407f-521b-497b-ac8b-68eecd5f8f71?sort=year&desc=0&lastSeenGuidPresent=false&cldtidx=5&position=5&search_id=w9mq6pcvtk&source_otp=t10&ap_tier=t10&source=listpage_search-results&order_bucket=unknown
  5. Hey! Over 67,000km I got 8.5l/100km with mostly town driving and 7l/100km country driving. I think I've only ever gotten 800km out of a tank on roadtrips. On the same trip with my Superb 280PS I'd get 800-850km out of a tank. The TDI suits the big Kodiaq more than the TSI in my opinion, it's a lot more satisfying with the extra 130nm torque. That said, I did replace it with a car that has the same engine as the Kodiaq RS TSI, so take that as you will...
  6. What is the current setting for A5 front sensor Long coding Byte 0 Bit 4 Terminal 15 characteristics of passive entry exit function
  7. Alas after 7 happy years of Kodiaq ownership, 5 of those being the top dog RS, all good things must come to an end. We've only been doing 6,000mi a year in the Kodiaq for the past year or two so diesel isn't making much sense anymore, so have placed a deposit on an Audi A4 45 TFSI quattro S line. Having also replaced my Superb Sportline with a Mercedes-AMG C43 like @dunc69 it also marks the end of Skoda ownership for myself.
  8. Both the Kodiaq RS TSI and TDI ONLY have the external sound actuator. I've driven both (and own a TDI).
  9. Mine warms up within 10km easily. No mechanical issues so far but I've only travelled around 62,000km in it.
  10. Same spec too! What a coincidence…hope yours has the performance exhaust, my word the theatrics are next level.
  11. Decided that while a stage 1 Superb would be very quick and effective, I need to give ICE a more proper send off before confining myself to a microwave on wheels for a daily.
  12. Been dealing with a knocking noise when going over sharp bumps when off the brakes. Turns out the pads are a bit loose - seems like the DBA DB8849XP are made specifically for the Golf R caliper which is cast a bit differently and uses a retaining clip. Is the TRW GDB1918 the correct replacement set of pads for the 340mm rotors? I don't want to start a new thread just to confirm this.
  13. Is it worth doing this for a 2.0 TSI? Is it worth doing this for a 2.0 TSI? Doing water pump next week. Is it worth doing this for a 2.0 TSI? Doing water pump next week.
  14. Bugger all difference it seems from https://www.tyrereviews.com/Article/2023-Auto-Bild-All-Season-Tyre-Test.htm
  15. Can you explain, with pictures? Multiple sellers sell different product by different makers so it’s not unreasonable for them to have minor visual differences. Just make sure to look at reviews.
  16. Car went in today due to the Side Assist module getting "bricked" for no apparent reason. All fixed now after doing a software update. New issue is that they have discovered that the water pump needs replacing as there's a leak, 83,000km seems a bit early?

  18. I wonder what work can be done with this as it appears you can change compression per channel https://mqb-blog.com/en/2023/04/17/sound-settings-editor/ No clue if it works for Canton though
  19. If their VC has that style carbon graphics then it will show the "old" normal graphics:
  20. You mentioned on hot weather and steep terrain - you might not be using the peak power but you'll be using the peak torque and working that turbo. Definitely will need to upgrade the cooling - a lot of tunes aren't exactly tested towing in hot weather with increased load like the manufacturers do.
  21. One of the reverse lights have gone out - two years for NZ$10 I can't complain about, so bought the same pair again. They have reduced the diode count however I reckon they're brighter, we'll see how long they last though (not sure if they'll last as long).
  22. Sounds like you need to go to a different dealer.
  23. How come the 1.5 and not the 2.0 190PS? I found the 2.0 TSI a good fit engine for the Karoq.
