Have you seen the thread below - look at the 13th post by "Karppa_"
https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/322415-water-ingress-in-to-brand-new-skoda-superb/page/2/
I think the open scuttle hole issue shown in his picture happened to someone else recently
Thanks for the link yes had a good look around and nothing is missing or anything out of place. Spoke to a mechanic, will ramp up the car with inner arch and carpet pulledback down and spray water with a jet wash in certain places to duplicate the leak. Let's see, will report back ✌️

An enlargement of your photo appears to show a crack and a small split at the back of the depressed area ...
It seems that way in the picture as it is dark and wet in there . The part you feel is the crack is in fact the lip casting shadow inside the hole .
Area out lined in blue is a brace and that lip which looks like a crack is part of that brace. The green area is running under the lip and continues behind the brace towards the right. We've had the car jacked up with all trims in and out removed and no breaks or cracks are apparent.
Investigation continues 👓

Is that a drain hole or does it appear to be corrosion?
Well water comes in under the carpet from that hole which seems factory but an odd shaped hole with paint all around it and with no corrosion what so ever 😞🤔 I wonder.

I'm sure many new will visit this page in near future and maybe would be helpful for them so no it doesn't matter how old the post is.
Pollen filter is good as I change it every 6 months only £10 but did found water under the passenger seat carpet and insulation. Seat out and most of the wet insulation pulled out too , will leave it all out to see where from and how much water comes in. Possibilities are endless 🤔
Found a hole in the very corner ( wheel side ) in the passenger side footwell which is part of a brace and that is where water comes in. Pulled the inner arch trim out and found a stack of leaves and mud pilled up quite high, cleaned it all out ! Could this be the reason 🤔
Will leave under carpet insulation out and if water still comes in then investigation continues🙄

On my skoda superb mark 2 the aircon drain pipe hides under the footrest in the driver side footwell. Footrest piece is held down with a plastic tab and a big plastic screw behind brake pedal, once removed pull the carpet down and you will see a brace which sits on top of the pipe location with some insulation covering the pipe . Brace has 2 plastic nuts 10mm undo them , brace comes out , pull insulation up and you have the pipe.
I thought I had a clogged aircon pipe but it wasn't. Investigation continues 🙄

9@zA this original post refers to fault code P0121 which is a Throttle Position Sensor fault & nothing to do with the accelerator pedal.
Think you will need a code read before splashing out on parts.
For me it was the pedal itself. There is a sensor inside the pedal and upon replacing it solved the problem. Bought one off eBay £15 ( No word of lie)
But yes could be many other reasons in regards to P0121.

Yeah pedal was plug and go I didn't need to do anything else. I hope it worked for you. As for the throttle body within the engine I never touched this or cleaned it just changing the pedal stopped the fault code repeating. As PipH said could be throttle itself but in my case new pedal was all it took.
Hey JHR8686 . Confirmed fix ! Replacing the pedal and cancelling ( The mechanic insisted to cancel the code ) fault code has fixed the P0121issue for me too. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Sorry completely forgot to ask, was the peddle plug and play or it needed adaptation with vcd. Thanks

I checked all the wiring as much as could be seen. And cleaned all the contacts. The accelerator pedal was feeling stiff compare with a friends superb so ordered a new pedal and fingers crossed fault has not appeared again since this new part. Thanks for help.
Hi boss
You changed the peddle 4 months ago, is all OK ? Hopefully the fault has not reappeared. Let us know please. Thanks

I don't think I have bad connection. Amp is connected as on the picture in previous post. I will try to take power from some 20 amp existing fuses (I use same circuit as lighter if possible so car will think I use something over the socket) an will see if that's help with start stop.
Is your RCA converter Auto sense ? and I take you are trying to plug into the fuse box to power the RCA right ?
-
I don't understand why your sub power feed is effecting your start stop
Is your amp connected directly to the battery or fuse box ???
On 25/10/2018 at 12:30, Herby12 said:Hi thanks will take some later. When I disconnect the power going to subwoofer amplifier start stop is fine.
-
Would you share pictures of all the connections you have made to run the sub.
Also can you undo all the connections for sub and see how that effects your start stop function

Can't remember right now, yet it "sounded", and - look - I have the Canton unit: sound is pretty good but lacks power.
The MKII with Canton had more juice!
There is always room for improvement, providing one has the time and the energy to do so

Eheheh, old school is old school
You make me feel wire my old Sony unit as a final to make it sound a bit more powerful!
I find lot of new stuff expensive and no quality but the old stuff is well built and of good quality.
What Sony do you have?

Good work! Thanks for sharing
G thanks. Also added an old school alpine equalizer and the highs are so warm and smooth. Bose subwoofer hides perfectly in the boot pocket
I'm bragging now ain't I

Make that an Audison SLi2

Look for Audison SLi2 high to low converter. Switches on with speaker signal and has a remote out .

Don't go crazy on it. Gently will do it !
-
On my bolero there is no factory amplifier so , I tap in to speaker cables at the back of the stereo with a Denison SLi2 RCA converter around £50. ( if you have factory amplifier running speakers then you need to tap in at the output of amplifier with this converter.
This converter has no remote IN but it does has a remote OUT . It powers on ITSELF after detecting signal from speaker wire and triggers your Sub AMP ON.
I have pinched a tiny mono amplifier from an alpine SWE 815 ,70 watts RMS to run a mazda 6 wheel subwoofer .
Also a Sony xms400D 4 channel 50 watts rms x4 running Panasonic EAB component speakers all around.
The amps and RCA converters sit comfortably behind glove box on to the side and I am happy to report that the system ROCKS
The glove compartment has a pipe running into it blowing cold air ( I think it's there to keep cool whatever you may have in the compartment ) I cut this pipe at the back and point it onto the amps to keep them cool

Dashboard iPad install
in Skoda Fabia Mk I (1999-2007)

I did not want to have anything permanent and keep all original so this was the best method I could come up with 🤔 ..... if you happen to have a similar looking head unit !
