Hi Matt, I have attached the details from my SGS invoice. It was 2017. Hope you manage to get them. No coding required, I swapped the struts over (10 minute job) and the boot closed and then adjusted as it normally would with electric struts. Cheers

345 mm front disk from 3.6 on 2.0 TDI 312mm

Upgrade the pads & discs to drilled(dimpled) and grooved. Cheaper and makes a big difference -
Has the pipe come off at the jets (under the bonnet)? Did you check or replace the fuse? I would always replace before you start looking for other faults

Really interested in getting this after reading your post. I currently have DAB will this work straight out the box or would I need to purchase an extra? I can't make out from your picture, does the surround fit well around the headunit? Thanks

Call hides digital mph in mfd

Think that's standard, same happens in my car. Just need to use the old school speedo -
Langers2k +1. 100% new tyres should be fitted to the rear. Urban myth that they should be fitted to the front. Plenty of YouTube videos confirm this.

I have fitted m-tec dimpled and grooved discs all round and pagid pads. Standard setup was scary at times (as documented on 4x4 models). Massive improvement.

26k for gearbox oil change seems a bit ott.... Each to their own but wouldn't be me. Oil and all filters yes but anything else not needed

Skoda Octavia Mk3 18 inch winter wheels x 4

Are they still available? -
I used the wheel specialist. Excellent work carried out by them. I went for a change of colour and didn't bother with the diamond cut again.

Skoda Superb Handbrake issue
PeteJ80 replied to Rohitiscancerian's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Does your car have hill hold assist? If so is happening when on a slope? -
I'm honestly not sure. The reason I didn't do it myself was due to confusion about there being a filter needing replaced or a mesh that needs cleaned. I was more comfortable letting the 'experts' do it.

It's cheaper/similar price to take it to Skoda and for them to do it. I had mine done a few months ago for about £70

Leaking panoramic roof superb estate

Hope you have managed to sort it once and for all!! -
Exactly that, back to a standard boot opening. I bought my struts from https://www.sgs-engineering.com Good quality and reasonable price. The existing struts easily pop off, it will take an extra minute or two to unclip the wires attached to the electric struts. I replaced both of mine in under 10 minutes. The buttons on your central console and keys are redundant.

My car had it fitted as standard, it has failed and I was quoted over £1000 to fix. I bought standard gas struts for £50 haven't looked back. Yes it cool but....

Scuttle drain locations mkii Superb

Watching this with great interest, I am having to carry out a similar search in my car tomorrow. Good luck with solving your issue. -
Vantrue N1 is awesome. Be careful buying a dashcam with GPS. If you have a bump and pass the footage to your insurance company they will have access to your speed etc. This can void a claim or turn the table against you.

I have had my 2013 (FL) Elegance 4x4 for almost a year now. It is honestly the best car I have owned. Fuel economy is no worse than my previous Insignia. The car is effortless and gives me the confidence that when called upon 4wheel drive is there. The car will Fwd most of the time in order to save fuel. Get one you won't regret it

Can you please tell me what the parts are so I can look on VCDS? Thanks

Only if a passenger is onboard.

A third option.... Nexen N8000. I have just fitted 4 on my Superb. My wife's car has a full set as do family members. They really are fantastic tyres at an affordable price. Over the years I have had all brands budget to premium.... These really do hold the road well in all weather
