  1. Everyone who talks about leather upholstery should know that there is a very small part of the upholstery made of animal leather. Usually, no animal leather is actually used, but the car manufacturers call it leather. In reality, you are using synthetic leather or leatherette as it is often called. I work in the industry so I know what I'm talking about but I do not know what Skoda uses but would be very surprised if there is more than 20% animal leather. Upholstery made of real leather usually comes as an option with significant price tag or is available in exclusive car brand.
  2. It´s possible to start your heter with your phone and you need something like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Webasto-Thermo-Call-TC4-Advanced-Model-Genuine-Product-/122245026681
  3. I made the same change and experience increased fuel consumption by about 10%. Has anyone more noticed the same increase?
  4. Huawai is not compatible with Mirrorlink.
  5. Here in Sweden we talk about 3 seconds rule.
  6. +1 on that, 99% success rate and i use virtual pedal all the time because door is so dirty.
  7. I can also confirm that KESSY open and close the tailgate with longer press the button in the middle.
  8. It is the Article from today and they talk about the Shanghai show in April 2017, so if someone is late, it is they, not me
  9. This is interesting http://www.carscoops.com/2017/03/skoda-electric-concept-is-reportedly.html?m=1
  10. Subwoofer os located behind the cover on the left side of the trunk and profiles you can find the sound settings
  11. This is a article i am talking about http://steeringnews.com/skoda-details-2015-superbs-canton-sound-system-14565/
  12. I drive a car from the passenger seat and I think it is a bit too much noise already from 55-60 mph, especially if it is a bit windy out there. Can not remember how it was on the demo cars but I think it was much quieter.
  13. I have read about this in an article but not at Skoda's website. Do not know how effective this is, or if it exists at all, but I'm pretty happy with the noise level, apart from wind noise.
  14. I think it's about 2-3 mpg, I get around 50 mpg on my last refueling, 46 mpg since I bought the car (2000 miles).
  15. in Sweden, there are four solid colors incl. red and 9 metallic colors
  16. I got 17" Falken ZE914A Ecorun which is developed to be OEM for VW Passat.
  17. My car does not have an inch dead spot or shift down as often, or perhaps better said my driving style is such that the car behaves in a different style. It is interesting that the car shifts down at the toe movement while saying that it is an inch dead spot in throttle respons . I have not tested the box so I can not comment on that but in many cases it is the placebo effect rather than big changes in how the car battery itself.
  18. It looks like that little box is magical, changing gas response, DSG shift times and provides increased grip. Real Magic
  19. Is there anyone who has managed to get the handbrake turn on automatically when you turn off the car without auto-hold activated. It was standard on my Nissan and other cars I drove.
  20. The only time I got wheelspin is when I press the proper gas and has wheels pointing sharp left or right and asphalt is a little wet. Do you have the same problem when driving in Normal mode?
  21. I think auto hold is available only on cars with DSG.
  22. Owner of 190 TDI DSG 4X4 Style Business edition
  23. There is no lack of performance in the 190 TDI Superb, there are few who find it. It has better or equal performance as the equivalent engines in the BMW 520 and Audi A6 so there is nothing to complain about. As for the DSG, it's probably led programs to suit most people but not all. No one has been able to make everyone happy!
