  1. The mileage is around 134,000. I bought it from my brother in laws work. It was bought from new and used as a company car, then I bought it. Apparently, it's recently had a few thousand spent on it including a new turbo. My brother in law has told me that all the fleet cars are serviced no matter what the cost and if anything goes wrong, it gets sorted straight away. I have service records but I'm working away at the moment so I can't be more specific on what's been done until I get home on Friday. BIt of a daft question maybe but, if the DPF is removed, will the soot build up anywhere else? Is the removal of the DPF a sound option, and will there be any side effects if I get it done? Do you know if there's anywhere local to Beverley/Hull that does it? Or even York, that's not a million miles away. And thanls for in depth reply, it makes a lot of sense.
  2. Thanks, I'll give that a go first. Thanks for that, I'll try the cataclean first, then have the codes read. Thanks. The turbo was replaced not all that long ago, according to the previous owner.
  3. Is it much of a job to sort out if it is that?
  4. Hi all. Just wondering if someone can help me. I've recently bought a 2009 Superb 1.9d and a few days after buying it, the DPF light lit up, followed by the engine management light, and then followed by a flashing coil light. I looked at the manual it said to drive the car in 4th or 5th gear between 1800 and 2500 rpm for at least 15 minutes to clear it. I must have done double that but the lights are still on and there is a reduction in power. It also judders a little in 1st gear when setting off. I noticed when I was trying to clear the lights that the cruise control had stopped working and the right hand side electric windows work intermittently. I was just wondering if these are all connected? Would I be better off getting the DPF removed? And does anyone know if there is anyone in the Beverley/Hull area that can do it? I'm really sorry for all the questions but I'm just at a loss as to what to do and where to start. Any help would be massively appreciated. Thanks for looking, Matt.
  5. Thanks, but I was after a replacement for mine, which is the green one.
  6. I'm looking for a front badge, myself. I'm new to Skodas though so I'm not sure what will fit. I've seen 80mm and 90mm on ebay, is there a list what fits what anywhere on here?
  7. Hi all. I'm Matt from Beverley, in East Yorkshire, and today I bought my very first Skoda. I'm ashamed to say, it wasn't all that long ago that I was taking the mickey out of my brother in law for having a Skoda Superb as a company car. That was until we had a trip down to Wales in his car and I quickly became a fan. I've actually ended up buying a 2009 Skoda Superb 1.9 TDi from my brother in laws company! It's a lovely car but could do with a bonnet badge, a new set of wheels and the paint work touching up here and there. I look forward to getting involved.
