I’d check the clutch first - how much pedal travel you have before disengaging? Might just need some adjustment if it is a bit worn and starts slipping high up. If it is all right with the clutch then synchro rings might me the culprit. What is the mileage of you car? (If double clutching helps that would be synchro for sure, but it can’t be verified without taking the gearbox apart...) That’s my 0.02

My default go-to music for testing audio equipment is the Bowers & Wilkins Very Audiophile New Recordings in lossless FLAC...

A weird cracking noise drove me mad, apparently coming from around the rear side of the center console. Turned out to be a red (paper? plastic?) washer squeaking in the bottom side of the passenger seat, just take a peek from the rear footwell - the washers are apparent in the joints of the height adjustment scissor mechanism. A squirt of WD40 took care of it.

I have pretty large hands but had no problem replacing the s3 bulbs. Got a few bruises though. Was 10 mins for both sides max.

Same here. Love mine. Coming from a Xenon-equipped Discovery 3, the Skoda lights were a huge step up. SLA is a boon.

I have the NBUs, noticeably better than the OEMs. Not really fond of the bluish hue of the CBI.

If memory serves then it's in the settings menu... Found it!

Mwhaha Took me a second to sink in...

Coming from a Volvo-licensed (Mazda) side traffic alert system got used to hear a “beep” wehenever there is an imminent danger of hitting a car (or some other object) in the blind spot. Basically it worked the same way as Skoda’s system with an amber light in the mirror, but started beeping when the turn signal was switched on the same direction as the alert came from. Is there a way to activate (or retrofit) a similar feature on the Superb? Even though I always look into the side mirror before switching lanes, it is fairly easy to miss the tiny light in it, especially during daytime.

Thank you for the follow-up, The_Professor!

Mine clears up fogging within 2..3 minutes (hatch). If you have auto start-stop that disables consumers (seat and window heating among others) once the engine is stopped and my hunch is that it might not restart them until the battery is sufficiently charged.

Does the 1.8 have the same dual injection system as the 2.0? These are meant to prevent carbon deposits in the intake (direct injection petrol engines suffer from these). My personal preference would be the 1.8 for noise levels and general “smoothness”, but horses for sourses

Happened to me maybe twice. Most probably a sw glitch with the headlight adjustment unit not initializing properly. Only happened at night startup though (i.e. it was dark outside so the low beams came up with the ignition), not once when the car was already running and drls were to be auto-switched to beams.

Put in Osram Xenarc Night Breaker (d3s) bulbs. Gives a nice upgrade over the oems.

^ This. DSG pre-sets are not available via mode settings - it always starts up in "D". Only items in the "individual" mode menu are affected...
