Hello Sasha.
Areyou still offering help and advice on Briskoda?
If you are, I need help in getting my Superb Combi's Active Steering working again, after it got wiped by a Skoda dealer in Ireland, when they updated the front camera software.
Kind regards
Eirhead.

How To: Retrofit a heated steering wheel to a mk3 Octavia
SashaGrace replied to Purpletom's topic in Skoda Octavia Guides
Nice work! I’ve just sorted this on a car but the car didn’t have a CAN Terminal 15 connection on the existing clock spring so there were only 8 pins in the 16 pin connection so the wheel buttons don’t work and there is an error in Module 19. Has anyone had this issue before? Thanks 🙏 -
Hello sashagrace I am John from Athens Greece and a member of briskoda. I would like you to help me if you have the time with my revercing camera problem . I have bought a cheap 20 euros Chinese camera that s suitable for the trunk of my Octavia mk3 5e 2013 model. Can you send me any Fotos of the connections I have to make inorder for it to work? I think I might be doing something wrong. I've done the vcds coding and the blue interface thing but no luck. I have the bolero . The screen goes black when I put reverse and it shows the warning down below and I get the adjustments for brightness etc. But no image . Would you help me please cause this is aproblem I can't solve and it's driving me crazy. Thank you very much for your time.

I would like to ask if there is a way to connect my MIB 1 to a rear view camera although it has TP on the left side bottom of the screen. It confuses me because I did the VCDS programming and when I put it in reverse the screen goes black but it shows that it can do adjustments for brighteness etc. And at the bottom it shows the warning for backing up. Any ideas? Thank you for your time.

Sasha’s Superb SportLine Plus Facelift

I’m not a stranger to a high miles car, my vRS had more miles than this at this age 😅 and I’ll probably continue to add about 20k miles a year on it with my current commute. I’ll definitely look at SpeakEV, I need to get to grips with the charging situation near me and around my girlfriend’s in Nottingham to make the most of the cars EV range. It does need a thorough clean and polish but it’s in really good nick tbf. -

Direct to fusebox. On the Amazon hub there are 2 USB’s but I only used one, I removed the VAG USB for a wireless CarPlay dongle so then I cut the insulation off the USB and put it in a donor VAG USB case and clipped it all in.

Thanks all, I’m sure I’ll still be around but I’m definitely excited for GTE life 😊 -

It wasn’t those so much, they are now sorted, I’m getting divorced and I don’t need such a big car and I can now charge one so I thought I’d try the GTE. -
Electric Trunk problems..

From the rear. You can get a used one for much less, will work just fine -

So, this hasn’t turned into an 80 page epic like the Octy thread for all sorts of reasons but after 8 months and 12k miles, the Superb has gone. It’s being picked up next week once the windscreen is swapped and then I’m allegedly off to the world of VW as all being well I’m due to collect a Golf GTE Advance. I’ll report back on how that goes once it’s here. Thanks for everything guys, this place truly is the best. -

Number 2 is the right hand side one, you need to replace the strut like for like. I bodged mine by taking the hall sensor signal from the left side lol but that was with a new loom I made, you should swap the strut. -
Electric tailgate opens fully, then lowers a bit?
SashaGrace replied to Stuom's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
This is not necessarily the case as you would also need to change the boot lock, remove the soft closer, change coding, change the ball joints and buy gas struts. New aftermarket or good used struts can be had quite cheaply. I retrofitted the power tailgate to my Octy and those struts are hella expensive but even then I got used ones for a not unreasonable price. I was tripping over used Superb struts from £60 a side and the power bootlid is such a boom IMO it’s worth it. -

I haven’t done anything with it tbh, it’s been a bit of a pain with some electrical gremlins that Skoda need to sort for me so it’s going back soon for that and then I’ll take it from there. I have a foldable towbar all ready for it but it needs fixing before I worry about that. Fingers crossed it’ll be sorted soon.
