  1. Standard dampers should something similar to DCC in normal, this is the setting I'm towing 2000kg with. I can't imagine that they would be to soft if you don't fill the luggage and exceeds or getting close to the maximum allowed weight (675kg if I rember correctly?) Try towing with it at least once before you decide to change anything
  2. Did this with OBD11 And it works like a charm
  3. Haha, sorry my misstake! I read to fast, you're absolutely right. Wonder what they have put inside the boot sidewall instead?
  4. Maybe they've changed something? In my -17 Superb estate the sub is located at the same spot as you described. But - even though I don't think it sound good it's not lack of bass that it suffers from. It actually performs really good for what it is - 6,5" woofer if I don't remember wrong. You should be able to get a quite good thump in your car even though it's mostly rumbling in an uncontrolled way.. Try listening to another car with the sub, it might be something wrong with yours?
  5. D3 was the one I drove also, How did you feel your car behaved before your mods? Just curious as I feel that my car has absolutely no control over the wheels (no matter DCC setting) when pushing it on roads that aren't flat as a ironing board... Maybe hope for a new Nissan Stagea 260RS to hit the market
  6. Maybe this is like swearing in the church but.... - Have you driven the Volvo V60 T6 twin engine? Compared to my stock DCC Superb it was in a different league regarding connection with the road, cornering and agility overall. I can't compare to the 3-series but in my opinion it wasn't far behind the BMW F20 1 series, didn't get that gocart feeling as in the F20. Not an expert as I like "floating" around in my cars but it was really a remarkable difference IMHO. Base price 48keur, after discount 43,5keur, after government discount closer to 41keur.
  7. Hi. Had my Superb for almost three years covering 79500miles. I've been impressed by the interior space as it fits almost anything you ever could imagine put inside the car. Reliability has been awesome, a broken damper, boot lid lock and some knocking on the front suspension. At one time it wouldn't start but it cured itself after a couple of minutes. I've never been a friend of the driver seat, for my quite heavy body 105kg @177cm it has to little cushioning and the shape of the backrest doesn't do any good for my body. The massage function is a gimmick that's nice to have but I won't miss it. Ventilated seats on the other hand is god send Comfort is ok, to much road and wind noise, with DCC in sport it gets quite stiff but it doesn't improve the handling that much (,normal driving). Comfort mode is my melody - floating around on the road Rear seat must be among the best there is!? Specced the steering that only has two turns end to end, really nice when going slow, parking etc. ACC does what it should, adaptive lane assist and everything working but I've only used them for a couple of hundred miles as I hate the feeling of someone else taking control of the car. 3zone climate control, it's okey but could have better cooling and heating, always keeps this in "sync" and won't miss it a bit. Heater and Skoda connect, heater ok, basic performance and Skoda connect has been really dodgy, never knowing when it will work made me use the remote most of the time. Headlights - low beam ok but high beam is a joke, installed a led bar as I drive on country roads with more forest than people and often when it's dark. Washe fluid tank a little on the small side, would have appreciated 6-8litres capacity. Rear view camera - God send! Really good resolution and functionality no matter how ****ty weather or dark it is. Columbus head unit - really hate the touchscreen. Not that fast but does what it should. Canton - I'm one of those that doesn't like the sound it produces, to much treble and low end, nothing in the middle. Good for electronic music though. Towing capabilities - pretty good actually, nothing to complain about except the DSG when doing tight manouvering. I guess this is common for all brands of these boxes. Haldex - ok performance, programming must differs a bit from Volvo as it feels like it's slower in it's reactions. Never gotten stuck anyway That sums it up - a good and reliable car, everything I complain about is subjective things that matter to me while others couldn't care less. Also the seats surely fits many others perfectly. But where will I go now? I came from a Volvo XC70 (my wife's car now) and will return to Volvo. Just signed the contract for a 2021 V60CC B4 AWD some sort of mild hybrid diesel with a whopping 14hk 48V electric motor It does miss some of the features of the Superb like adaptive chassi, that steering wheel thing, ventilated leather seats etc. But sound level in cabin is lower in the standard model, specced laminated windows all around in my order, makes a big difference in the XC70 and I believe it will in the V60CC also. Seats fits me better, climate control has more oumph for both cooling and heating and the overall finish is a little bit comfier than the Superb (my opinion). Someday I might come back, but for three years from now I will be hanging in different forum. Wish you all the best!
