Oil level is correct, I have 12kkm since the last oil change and i did not do anything oil related prior tonthe event

To be honest I don't know how the dpf smells. Mine is broken, I have a black exhaust pipe so I thingk regenerationn does not do much. Anyway I drove 500+km since without issues orn other smells

Will do, thanks!

Hello colleagues, I have a MK2 superb 2011, 2.0L, 140HP, engine code CFFB. One week ago, after 40mins drive to work, I noticed a very strong smell of burned electronics, or ebonite or hard rubber. It was coming from the engine compartment, right side, around the engine air filter. I could smell it even the second day after driving many kms. I checked the engine temp. but it was not very hot. I checked the alternator (maybe the diodes) - 13.7V so I think it is ok. I checked the fuse box from the right side, next to the battery - all is ok. In general I checked with the flash light everywhere I could see in the engine compartment and I did not see anything wrong. Engine works fine, all features work as designed, I did also a diagnostic and I have no reported errors in the memory. Still, I will go abroad for vacation soon and I would like to identify the root cause before and not be stressed because of this. Anybody had a similar issue or anybody knows how to deal with such cases, what more I could check? Where is the ECM located ? Thanks for any hints!

at idle, the temp dropped in about 5mins to just bellow 80degrees and stayed there. The rpm increased to 1krpm but the temp stayed stable at 80 degrees. I don't remember notice-ing this before thermostat replacement, it always stayed constant at 90 even at idle and even at -some degrees. An I can accept it is normal to decrease some degrees but the fact that the rpm increased this means it got into an mode where the functionality is not ideal so I tend to think the thermostat hysteresis is not made for this car, it's too large

unfortunately the repair shop did not mention on the invoice and I did not ask. I know it is not OEM

it is not very easy for a DIY mechanic, at least for me, at this time of year and without an elevator, I would not do it.

Hello colleagues, 1 month ago I changed my thermostat as the engine temperature was no longer reaching 90 degrees. Today, I was driving to work and the temperature reached 90 degrees only after 25 mins of normal driving(There are -8degrees outside) Then, I let the engine to idle for 5min and the temperature decreased to 80degrees and the idling rpm increase from 700 to 1000rpm. For me this does not seem normal. It looks to me that the new thermostat needs again replacement, what do you guys think? How is the temperature in you vehicles acting? So far no answer from my local shop that did the replacement.

That's what I suspected too, thanks !

Well th Well, I understand what estimation means but 20% difference to the real consumption is no longer an estimation, it's an error comming from somewhere. I have been driving for 550km, mostly highway with an average speed of about 120km/h, 3 persons and luggages. To consume 7.6l is not normal and I noticed it now after I repaired my injectors. Before I did not noticed a difference between real and estimated fuel consumption. In such driving conditions 6.2l was the normal. So now I am just try-ing to figure out if the injector repair was not done right or anything else is wrong

Injector data id not used in the estimation calculation?

Hi, I have a superb 2 with a 2l diesel engine code CFFB. I did a long journey laletely and noticed the fuel estimation was 6.4l/100km but the actual consumption was 7.6l/100km, calculated between 2 refuelings. 2 months ago I had 2 of the injectors repaired in an professional shop. Could malfunctioning injectors be the reason? Anybody else noticed so much difference between estimated and real fuel consumption?

Thanks for the answer, meanwhile I have asked 2 mechanics and said I should not worry. It's a bit confusing the information I get on the net saying the max. temp. should be no more than 110 degrees. I have my car for 10 years and constantly I get oil temperature above 110. So the I will relax. Thanks again!

The engine code is cffb. The oil level I checked and it's in normal limits ( a range) same for the coolant level. The outside temperature was 30degrees

The oil change I did 2000km ago with Motul 8100 5w30
