VCDS options on Superb III
I think it shouldn't be a problem. I did it recently with a simple Micro-CAN on a MY2018.

What have you done to your Superb III today?
I think G13 is not sold anymore in VAG network. I believe G12 evo is the new standard. But I let those who really know confirm this.

Moving forward
Do you mean your TJA (Traffic Jam Assist) doesn't work anymore? Normally, if the car ahead doesn't move within 3s, your car won't move. You'll need either to press the gas pedal, or pull the ACC slack to resume the selected speed.

I succeeded to put my rear armrest back into operating conditions. But what a mess to open it and disassemble both plastic shells 🤯! It took me more than 2 hours! And... less than 10 seconds to clip them back together. 🙄 Bad news is: I've unfortunatley broken small clips inside Good news are: These missing clips won't be an issue. And... I have not broken the plastic shells, though they are very stiff. I just need to screw the armrest back in the car now. I'll post some interesting pics in the right thread.

Superb MK3 Rear Brakes
It's funny statement, when yourself, you don't trust someone like @ApertureS who works everyday on VAG cars AFAIK. I've never changed my rear pads on my Mk3, but I should need to do it soon. I think I'll follow @ApertureS recommendations to use VCDS rather than listen to someone who only did it twice on a Skoda, with all due respect.

Problems with side mirrors
That doesn’t make sense at all. If car is still under warranty, they shall not charge you for diagnostic. This being said, I hope the way they do diagnostics is not limitated to plug diagnostic tool and wait for software scanning result, because: 1) Diagnostic tools can’t tell all 2) othetwise everybody could be a garage owner… 🙄 Just one tip, change for another dealer. This one furiously looks like a stealer… 🙄

Superb Mk4
French Skoda configurator finally includes Superb Mk4 and Kodiaq Mk2. But prices are not yet available and I assume all options are neither available in the configurator. Currently, you can only chose: bodywork color, rims, and interior type (leather / textile) and color

VCDS options on Superb III
I've made a test yesterday, since we have negative temps in France these days. Thanks you guys, I discovered that front tear drops wiping is disabled by low temps (btw, I haven't found the minimum temp that disable this function yet. 4°C is possible) On the contrary, tear drops wiping on rear window is not disabled (at least above -2,5°C, I could not test below yet).

You lost me! 😂 Which function should low temps disable? Side view mirror swinging down upon reverse or tear drops wiping?... 🤔😂

Front end creaking.
Same for me. It seems to be the process described in service bulletin applied by official dealers.

VCDS options on Superb III
I'm not sure to catch you. IMHO, upon low temp, you can only disable side view mirrors folding function. But you need to make it mannually by unticking the box in the MMI setting menu. Low temps don't disable the side view mirror to swing down upon reverse AFAIK. 🤔 😐

Electronic Parking Brake affects takeoff acceleration
You can tune the Auto-Hold behavior with VCDS. There are 3 possible settings: Early / Normal (default) / Late This modify the way the brakes disengage upon acceleration. They will release early / normal / late. Here is the mod: 03-Brakes > 16-Security Access : 11966 > 10-Adaptation - Select channel "IDE05055-Hydraulic brake assistant" - Change value to "Early" for smoother starts.

@plamen_333 Thanks. Never seen such a mod (but I don't say it's not possible... ) . However, front fog lights do turn on upon reverse.

Sorry for my English, but do you call mirror puddle lights? 🤔

VCDS options on Superb III
@enisz Did you check if the mod was successful using your wipers, while your car was idling or did you try while driving? Because, I think tear drops wiping doesn't work when the car is stopped and idling, only working while driving. If I remember well, I had been fooled by this important ´detail’ and thought my mod was unsuccesful.

@enisz For tear drops wipe on front wipers, maybe you can try this: - 09 Central Electrics > Security Access (31347) > 10 Adaptation : - Select channel "(6B)-Front_wiper - Traenenwischen Front Status" - Change value to "Active" - Click on "Do it" Then, - 09 central Electrics > 07 Coding - Select 2nd line form drop down menu "1-3V1 995119-48x LL 70726" - Byte 0, tick bit 3 "Adaptative Post/Tear Wiping Active" - Byte 2, tick bit 5 "Post/Tear Wiping Active". Your code shall change from 16xxDD to 1ExxFD For tear drops wipe on rear wiper (if equipped), maybe you can try this - 09 Central Electrics > Security Access (31347) > 10 Adaptation : - Select channel "(8B)-Rear_Window_Wiper - Traenenwischen Heck" - Change value to "Active" - Click on "Do it" Then, (only if mod on front wiper is not already done) - 09 central Electrics > 07 Coding - Select 2nd line form drop down menu "1-3V1 995119-48x LL 70726" - Byte 0, tick bit 3 "Adaptative Post/Tear Wiping Active" - Byte 2, tick bit 5 "Post/Tear Wiping Active". Your code shall change from 16xxDD to 1ExxFD Done on my MK3 estate MY18 (built in octobre 2017), works fine.

Compairing MK3 to MK4
It may also be a consequence of safety norms in case of accident with pedestrian. Design constraints on front bumpers must integrate knees average height. Indeed front bumper height has already been modified theses last years because injuries on knees are very complicated to treat. Maybe safety norms trend to push even further this point. A flat surface enable better energy dispatching…

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Sunroof seal replaced yesterday, one less problem! There's now only the inner ski hatch handle problem to solve. I've removed the armrest to make access easier. The good news is that nothing is broken, one part has just unclipped (the banana-shaped lug, which allows the handle to pivot). The bad news is that I haven't yet figured out how to open the armrest shells, to put the little lug back in place and the plastics shells are very rigid. I'm stressing not to break parts because I don't really know how to disassemble the shells. I need to look in the workshop manual to see if there is anything, but I'm afraid it's too detailed to find any information. 😐 I've removed the carpet on the backside, because I assumed there could be clips. I was right but I did not tried to unclip them yet. Last thing, not done on my Mk3, but on a the Mk3 (L&K MY18) of a friend who wants to sell it. I've made a very deep clean of the inside. Leathers, carpets, windows, boot. Amazing result, since it was a beige interior. She was stunned, almost did not want to sell her Superb anymore... 🤣 Hopefully, she has ordered another brand new Mk3 L&K (TDI150 / DSG7) in meteor grey and black interior, which we saw by the dealer, as I got mine back yesterday. She should get it within the next weeks. Very nice specced one!
