Removable LED Boot Light

Mine is very simple to remove. Is your boot moulding secured correctly so that it is not putting strain on the fitting? Just a thought. -
How good is your S3 rear heated window?
widu13 replied to markmuddimer's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
I have to say...mine is crap. When on here to moan about it and I thought I would search for it. Heating the cabin to 30c clears it faster than the HRW! It was so slow I've checked the fuse! 20 mins (with the heat and aircon on) to clear the internal fogging. Absolutely crap. The worst HRW I've known in 30 years of motoring. -
Buying from Motorpoint - Advice
widu13 replied to neonplanet40's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Car tax is paid in full months. There is now official support from DVLA of the "14 days grace" that has been spoken about for decades which only become adopted 6 or 7 yrs ago. It is written into legislation. Therefore, if a part month is cancelled the tax revenue is paid until the end of the month in any case, and if purchased on a new month then the full month is also purchased as well. The plan of the DVLA when this was incepted was to allow for paperless billing and absence of physical vehicle excise licence discs, which is now a reality. In short, as long as you get it taxed, no offences are committed. -
Interim service on a variable service PCP

My VWFS plan requires the use of a Skoda only dealer, but I don't plan on keeping mine otherwise I would go elsewhere. -
It's only purified urine anyway so shouldn't be too acidic. Well, 33% urea and 66% distilled water...someones on a serious racket with the amount they charge for it! Perhaps I could just pee in the tank?

Is there a sticky somewhere for what can be added to bog standard spec cars? Mines an SE Tech. -
Columbus Satnav and Point of interest

Just use the Navigate to function and will show up in the results with the distance. -
Just got my START of lease docs confirming that my friends and family will have the opportunity to purchase at the end of the lease but not me. If I hadn't just started a lease I'd have had yours!

...and mine, but the POIs are searchable and show in the results. -
As long as it fits on the sill weld it should be fine.

The scissor jacks are convenient for lifting on the designation sill lifting points. A bottle jack will damage the sills, but will be okay on suspension points etc. You can use a ice hockey puck for £2 adapted to lift on the sill.

Android Auto is a road safety hazard
widu13 replied to Bud's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
I was very disillusioned with my AA, it was very haphazard; but then I changed the USB cable and it's a revelation it works so well. My phone memory is full, does anyone know if Waze will happily run from the SD card? -
Solid paint - Pacific blue; a cautionary tale
widu13 replied to widu13's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
As promised. My SE Tech greenline completely bog standard. It was delivered minging, but the bodywork has been cleaned and carlacked (complete and sealant). I don't "do" tyres! It won't be getting the carlacked again for 6 months!
