  1. Try playing with the switches on the overhead console for your overhead lighting in the rear of the car. I had a similar issue with my first Superb.
  2. We've just got a replacement for our *slightly* bent L&K estate, it's a pre-reg 2019 190 Tdi L&K estate DSG 4X4 in quartz grey with 10 miles on the clock. It's getting delivered today. 😀
  3. @davembk: Read the post made by @paul_7_7_7 for the method of working the release catch. If you remove the rubbery plug you can't replace it and it only helps keep the key blade tightly in place. I have been trying on one of the keys from my now written off L&K and the method posted by @paul_7_7_7 definately worked for me.
  4. Nah, it was all solids and they didn't escape my underwear. 😃
  5. I can only apologize for your inability to recognise a humourous comment. If my comment had been serious I would not have included a smiley. My humble apologies if I offended your sensibilities. Why would the spills be inevitable?
  6. Thanks, all the safety stuff did what it was meant to do. The engineer who assessed the damage was quite impressed by our lack of serious injuries, as were the traffic police.
  7. Nope, no royal connections. 😄 Just a pillock driving for Scot Jcb whose sat nav said do a u turn now. 😞
  8. The driver of the truck type transit pickup was charged with careless driving at the scene of the accident, there were quite a few witnesses to the accident who all gave statements. In theory my insurers will replace the car with a new one of the same spec, I'm not holding my breath though. Looking at the Skoda configurator I don't see any manual transmission diesels at the moment. 😞
  9. Thanks, I bought the car through New Car Discount, I'm pretty sure it was supplied by Rainworth motors of Mansfield. The safety devices in the car did their job, although the other half has a *lot* of bruising caused by the seat belt, I just feel as though I've been kicked in the chest by a horse.
  10. Sadly this is what my 20 month old Superb now looks like, my insurance company have just written it off. A driver,travelling slowly, on the inside lane of the A9 decided he was going to to a right turn to go through a gap in the central reservation without looking in his mirror as I was travelling at about 65mph in the outside lane. The end result was 2 ambulances, 2 fire engines, 4 police cars and a 2 hour visit to the local A&E for my wife and myself. 🤕
  11. We're just getting battery in our 16 month old Superb replaced under warranty due to it suddenly deciding it didn't have enough power to start the car. The garage told us that Skoda have been having 'issues' with batteries manufactured by Moll.
  12. We had ours done yesterday when the car was in for its first service, hopefully it'll cure the cold weather glitches in the headlight levelling system. Edit: They also agreed to replace the warped glove compartment door under warranty. :)
  13. How many POIs have you already got displayed? I found that you can only get a certain number of POIs to display on the map and to get the camera POIs to display I had to deselect some other POIs in the options screen.
  14. I finally got round to doing this, it worked flawlessly. Thanks once again for your guide.
