tire size is optimal, but don't think it will fit on the OEM spare disc just illustration, this online tool doesn't allow set with 125 and doesn't move tire on offset change https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/?wheel1=135-70-18X4ET35&wheel2=195-55-18X6ET40&fcl=50mm&scl=50mm&wcl=30mm&sr=0mm 195 tire will require 6J disc while OEM 125 looks about 4"

yes, that was OEM 18" spare, i posted it as tool kit illustration edges cutting must help to fit it also in full size disc

why do focusing on disc inches? when most important is circumference, which depends on tire size OEM sizes Diameter/Circum. mm 215/55r17 - 668 2098 0% 235/45r18 - 668 2101 0% 235/40r19 - 671 2106 +0.4% 215/60r16 - 665 2085 -0.4% 215/50r18 - 673 2111 +0.8% 235/50r17 - 668 2093 0% 235/35r20 - 673 2111 +0.8% out of manufacturer approval 225/55r17 - 678 2134 +1.5% my choice 235/50r17 - 668 2093 0% 240/45r18 - 673 2113 +0.8% 245/45r18 - 678 2129 +1.5% 245/40r19 - 678 2131 +1.5% 245/35r20 - 681 2134 +1.9% Spare Wheels: OEM 125/70r18 - 632 1986 -5.3% 205/55r16 - 632 1984 -5.3% optimal, out of manufacturer approval 195/65r16 - 660 2073 -1.1% 205/65r16 - 673 2113 +0.8% 205/60r17 - 678 2129 +1.5% 195/55r18 - 671 2108 +0.4% 205/50r18 - 663 2080 -0.8% i think that foam edges can be easily cut OEM 18"

this cut can be made invisible, here is lost just bottom part of L trim damaged regular, +1.5% oversized, 225/55r17 on 7.5J alloy as spare i took 205/60r17, but currently it is mounted on same 7.5J alloy and it pushes up floor for ~20mm later will replace disc to 6.5J ?metal? with same tire

@Summerhillred look to pictures, rear plastic trim must be cut

@Dieselgate Google for 'Haldex and different sized wheels' i found recommendation, 4% between axles, if you have time, do some deeper research and share us info about % between Left/Right

sometimes my OBDEleven Gen1 has been left connected for months long maximum days when car was standstill were ~ 4 ~

i don't expect it, newer nowadays means less functionality for extra fee this year abonement i'll pay not for maps, but for remote access to Auxiliary heater haven't checked price yet

With Mib3 and higher this could change depending on users interest at annual online subscription

but i were sure, i haven't dreamed it, few sec Google search ->

@Tell I reported at ~2017 about missing logos in my Mib2H Columbus, at ~2018.05 i got them after whole fw update by dealer last story started on 2023.12 first answers were thanks for info, but their db is up to date and Škoda responds outdated db in my Mib3 Amundsen then i made visit to VW's dealer and checked situation on Tiguan; ID.4 and noted exactly same situation. after second report, which included table with situation on VW head units, they send me link where to download latest Phonostar's dbs, i forwarded info about newer dbs and update instructions to VW dealer, but still have no response i din't tried new db immediately in my Škoda's head unit, just because bad opinion with years ago found database RSDB_VW_Multi_EU_v1.10.10.7z which contained -VW- restriction in it's metainfo file, just weeks later i decided tryout and were positively surprised, then i more carefully browsed whole archive, where found metainfo with -SK- too, what explains success yes, PI must be important key, because all the stations where logo gone, had changed it. but at same time, BBC World in Riga doesn't transmit any RDS, but logo is present

@enisz What was the weather, i believe it could be disabled at low temperature

can't say about rear, haven't it, but front "tear drops wipe" works only at speed ?0+ kmh

just in case, they ask for device number: Mib2 3Q0 035 824 C Golf 2018 Mib3 3G5 035 820 Q Tiguan 2023 Mib? 10A 035 816 R ID.4 2023

Phonostar

some came by self after update, but one i had to add through Settings -> ~ Logos ~ -> . . . before update choice list of this station were empty

similar, incompetent, answer i got from Czech's helpline: most obvious messed to DAB/DAB+, because by FM's RDS standard can't be transferred any logos use then first, Mib2 link, more over it contains also -SE- while other twos only -VW- and -SK- and renamed stl.1vw to stl.sqlite form Mib2 archive can be opened by DB Browser (SQLite) while other twos not, as You mentioned

after 11 months also left side did the same 😞 5E3 052 133 E

Wrong, That is completely different story - 1. content of these archives stopped refreshing several years ago. i checked them regularly for my previous 2016. Superb Mk3 20160609; 20161020; 20171123; 20180509; 20181213; 20200331; no more new releases 2. they are useless for Mib3 and all newer head unit devices, only Mib2 and Mib2H had functionality to upload logos individually for each favorite station. example of single logo update procedure: 3. upload procedure were different, for each station individually, this thread is about update whole built in database at once 4. individually uploaded by user were displayed smaller than from internal head unit database even identical files -> https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/415291-columbus-radio-icons/ 5. one were better - individually upload method gave ability use whatever logo picture, even selfmade

managed to find how to update radio stations logos database -> https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/520105-radio-stations-logos-database-updates/

Database is maintained by Phonostar.de and Škoda doesn't hide that but one of their answer sounded similar to . . .

which type of head unit? on my previous MY16 Mk3 Columbus 8" Mib2H Canton BT had acceptable sounding, but MY23 Mk3.FL Amundsen 8" Mib3 Canton BT gives huge amount of compression artefacts on the highs, while FM sounds richer, especial in mid bass range. (can't say right now, which exact codec is selected on Galaxy S22 Ultra, but other tried didn't work anyway) so sceptical looking to migrate to AA, because Waze then will lose a lot of functionality has anyone come across any information, what equipment must be installed, to activate this option? changing of first parameter in this screen, didn't give any noticeable changes
