Muff

Yes I have. That's why I don't understand it. The light only goes off when I lock the car.

I have checked all the switches and as I don't have kids it's unlikely anyone has been tampering with them.

When I turn on the ignition my rear passenger cabin light comes on and I cannot turn it off until I lock the car. Any suggestions as to the cause ( short circuit or something?).

190 BHp to 224 BHp 400 NM to 470 NM Remap by Superchips.

Having previously used a DTUK tuning Box and Pedal Box on my 2017 Superb without any problem my car went into the dealer for a service and when it came back whenever I gave it a little hard throttle the car would go into limp mode and I would have to stop the car - switching off the ignition and back on seemed to clear the problem. However worried that the Tuning Box with the pedal box was causing an issue I removed them both and the car then ran to normal factory settings without further incident. I decided IK still needed to improve throttle response and give it a little more pep so as my car is out of warranty decided on a Stage 1 remap instead. I am not disappointed by the results as my car runs much more smoothly with and no lag when I put my foot down and smother through the gears which helps when pulling out of junctions or overtakes. Just to note I didn't get it re-mapped to go faster particularly because if I wanted something sporty I wouldn't have bought an estate car in the first place. It is simply more pleasurable to drive and much cheaper than buying a new car

It seems incredulous that whilst ACC is fitted as standard to an L&K Superb it isn't when it comes to the Kodiaq - poor play Skoda.

I am only 5'6" myself and can hardly be described as thin and I have a DSG and although my car does not have the 'Sports-line' bucket seats I do not find it a problem getting a comfy driving position.

I don't think a Kodiak is any better than a Superb unless all you want to do is sit higher up and probably don't mind sacrificing a few mpg for the privilege.

It's this I am trying to remove. It practically surrounds the whole battery.

My old battery finally given up the ghost and I have bought a new battery and I cannot for the life of me remove the plastic cover from the top . Looked on internet and any videos showing battery replacement are for older models or different engines. So how exactly (pictures would help) do I take this cover off?

I don't recall how it happened but one of the supporting struts to the wind -deflector snapped and I went to one Skoda Dealer having explained the problem and pictures quoted me the best part of £550 for parts and labour. I then phoned another dealer nearby who charged me £327. Funny how both quotes could be so different but it shows it's useful to shop around. I can now drive around with my Pano Sunroof open just in time for the rainy season :o)

Murdockman, You may be correct in what you say but I am now cautiously optimistic. I had the battery on charge for a good 7 hours today. Put key into ignition all the usual lights came on and the car started! I will give it a further 5 hour charge tomorrow and if it goes well take the car for a run and see what happens. Thanks for you suggestions guys.

Cheers Wino. The completely dead, never to be resurrected battery is also a horrible suspicion of mine. I've just forked out nearly £80 on a new motorbike battery so you think I would have learn't my lesson then.

I have a 2008 Fabia Estate 1.9 TDI. It has been parked on my drive since most of lock-down. I tried getting in to start it and very little response. - a faint glow on the instrument panel Then car alarm sounded off - eventually this died off. I tried jump starting from my Superb but not even so much as an ignition light came on. I am currently trying to charge battery with a battery charger. I have left it charging for 3 hrs to hopefully allow some charge. Put key in ignition and turned it and absolutely nothing no whirring sound and not even so much as a faint light on my instrument panel. I tried using spare car key in case it was key fob battery but again absolutely dead no lights or noise of any kind. Any advice before I call out the recovery chaps?

I have a Superb Estate 4X4 diesel, DSG . Nice to drive. Fuel economy around mid 40-s. I had a DTE Pedal Box fitted which got the rid of the lag and a DTE Power Box which also took it from 190 to 220 and my fuel economy is now 50 mpg plus without having to drive too conservatively.
