@310golfr @gav_is_con i own OBDEleven and have already changed several of parameters, but i can't accept disabling Start-Stop completely - for my taste, by default OFF, but still possible on demand

I have saved few links £30 https://www.ebay.com/itm/322352078637 €36 https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Emulator-Start-Stop-Memory-module-with-SERVICE-MODE-Start-Stop-SSA-memory/223974245071 €25 https://www.drive2.ru/b/551897388734744531/ before ordered device which looked most complete, in theory Plug&Play without soldering and cut any wires €34 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001012474153.html connects between buttons module and coming wire yes it look accurately built, but after first install worked just once of ~10 attempts had to make research what pins are in use, on Russian forum found that are: 1 - +12v 3 - mass 6 - SSA measured voltage on first pin, all ok heated most contacts on the chip with a soldering iron, nothing :( after discussion with Ali's seller and several approval videos, seller sent me new package with microchip only, i confirmed will able solder it by self. received within 15 days, same as first package. packed in huge size box: after soldering new chip nothing changed. again videos to seller and refund procedure. what interesting, there were blinking response on attempts change Memory Module working modes, which are three (other candidates don't have that): funny, but how to change working modes can be read only in description of identical item just for Toyota (same seller) after another 30 days got instruction from seller to swap pins 1. and 7. on both ends: (have no idea what lives on 7th pin) HURRAH, that works! first, memory mode, for 100% but second, default OFF, just for ~70%. seller answered it can fail after short stay, but looks more as random. another small glitch is when i turning On Start-Stop manually, after one second it turned again Off, not often, few times a week. overall i satisfied by this upgrade

Yes, Bilstein B6 DampTronics are in the list but current springs have to be changed too, dealer told me stock springs can't be changed under warranty cause no visible defects and they became lower cause car got extra weight from sound deadening materials. also near to five years on the road leaves some footprint. for mine FWD rear axle can be used some springs from 4x4 set, developed for higher weight will drop less on my lighter car, but which exact? crossing fingers for receive suggestions from Eibach.de p.s. stock DCC shocks already were replaced on the front left at 43k Km and right at 47k Km, now 92k Km on the ODO

THANKS for part code! added to stock DCC, in other case car sits too low before sadly Audi's front parts are equal, nothing to take for upgrade now can't decide what Eibachs, would like stiffer but not lower p.s. Audi's pad gives some kind of sound deadening effect to! maybe placebo, but can't be worse definetly

272ps 4x4 has 1. another turbine 2. bigger brake discs 3. visible exhaust pipes 4. lot more pleasure of driving in winter

try another unpacker, i used to WinRar and Total Commander or download 7z from VW portal, direct links: https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/481746-columbus-map-update-2020-2021-mib1mib2mib2h/

latest maps are 2020

that is next evolution level, following vertical videos?

standard equipment 😞 but your engine also sounds to much TDIish

offered files on Škoda portal are for Mib2 http://updateportal.skoda-auto.com/en-US/Updates/ what Amundsen, click on fourth line https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/481828-amundsen-mib1-map-update-2020-2021/ Škoda portal lagging behind for half year, it worth check also VW portal for Discover Media 2 updates,

205/65r16 is ok, just install it on rear axle even when you can install spare wheel on front axle, it's not as safe as on rear

@csdex please share link to downloadable zip or PM me that VIN

^^^ Yes

@csdex i guessing your Columbus is first generation Mib1, looks like files aren't cross compatible between Mib1 and Mib2 what files are offered when you enter VIN http://updateportal.skoda-auto.com/en-US/Updates/

@spinnaker @Fairgame Columbus warns when is too late Waze is must have! for active driving

And another case when ACC/CC is disabled is installed stock, different diameter, spare wheel
