May be a long shot but stickibg brake calliper? Jack each corner in turn amd see if the wheel turns freely.

How are you finding the new B4 DCC shocks? Are they 'slightly' firmer in each mode?

Interesting as my 66 reg had this as an error a while ago. Not happened since clearing error codes. Will see if I can see it now there's a clue, thanks to @tmg and @UndertheRadar

Back on summer wheel set. Please let it get warmer in the mornings! Unseen are sone VERY clean wheel arches and suspension bits.

Check the handke to drop the seats and the air vent controls for the rear passengers. Easily kicked and broken. Haldex and DSG services as mentioned above. Check tyre wear is even. See if the DSG lever has been changed as its a part thats been known to fail. Its a ling read but the 280 thread is great. May even find your car's original purchase. ( i did). If driving find some speed bumps and listen for noise. Absolutely great cars. Great engine. Great space and invisible to most. (If yiu can bear to leave the exhaust tips sooty for extra stealth - i can't)

Agree entirely. All my driving is urban city now, auto just makes it eeeeasyyy. Plus the step off and lack of delay / drama / hands off while getting into 2nd makes merging into roundabout gaps a doddle. They're not perfect. But there is always the manual mode when you REALLY want to stay in 3rd on a motorway roundabout.

if recently out of warranty ask about goodwill. Going rate seems to be you pay 50% labour and skida has paid parts and other 50%. They can only say 'no'.

Unless the puck / groove depth is exactly the height of the narrow sill part all the weight is still being put into the bottom part of that narrow sill part. Ie no point to the puck other than not scratching paint? The thicker sill at the jacking points prevents the collapse. The scissor jack has the groove so Joe public gas a greater chance of lifting via the structural bit ( i beleve!) I use my trolley jack directly on those points. No issues. Didnt know about the axle stand points though.

Inspired by the thread I did the 'no silikat' mid at the weekend. Wrote the date of removal on the reservoir so I've half a chance id remembering in 5 yrs time😂

You're not alone as the number of 'how to sound insulate your superb' posts there are. You get used to it and the lack of complaints from my kids on long journeys makea me think it's more a tone than volume issue. I did spend my first month checking the rear windows hadn't been accidentally cracked open. I put some matting in the spare wheel well/ boot but no real difference.

Great pictures. Was the oil visibly discoloured or still 'golden' and did you change / have spare the O rings? I suppose once youve done it once you know what and where you are going..

8 miles each way in urban city 22 to 39 mins. Lockdown has meant journeys are quite smooth, couple of traffic light sets and a few rolling entry roundabouts gives around 26 average, up to just on 30 on good days, 24 if there's more stop / start. The average can be up to 28 within 10 mins. The days you dont care are the most fun though.

Anyone else remember "gears to go, brakes to slow" Re eco mode, you travel much further before a natural stop, so spend more time off throttle. In D mode lifting off at the same point would mean reapplying some gas to get to the junction. Hence more fuel. Like others i tried and didn't like feeling 'disconnected' plus ended up kissing the brakes more without really slowing down much. The engagement takes some getting used to.

Another vote for OBDEleven, done 1,5,6 and 8 plus a few other little things like remember heated seat setting. (2017 SE-L)

Pull the lamp unit trim piece/ cover above the bump stop thingy and see what's going on. It just clips out.

Is there a diagram anywhere of where the air qualuty sensor is? ( even what it looks like) Mine's giving an intermittent error code.

Winter wheels and tyres put back on at the weekend. Vindicated by a very heavy frost on Sunday night. Already up 2mpg presumably as they are narrower despite being 'softer'. Last petrol car I got 30mpg+ on a trip home from work was a '88 1.4 Citroen BX with 88bhp (ish) . That's progress. ( Don't worry I'll cane it tomorrow)

Reverse osmosis? Gonna be one hell of a fish tank.

Silent suspension. Exhaust farts in sport mode and silent wafting at all other times. The return of exhaust valves. Just because! Similar to @SkudMissile21 in other respects.

As above really. Watch out as front sensors were an option below L&k on earlier models. It is a big car but front end is similar to golf/ octavia as they share the same pkatform. The back of the car is however a very long way away. Rear sensors work fine even without a camera. My must haves were heated seats and a heated screen having come from a mondeo with them. Engine was non negotiable 😁. (280). I waited and got a young high miler in the right colour with the toys i needed. Love it still after 2 years.

Relevant thread here

Hi Shugmo. My MY17 superb does exactly that. Other skoda's auto park. Skoda tech told me it was deliberate so snow would not build up stopping them 'rising' if the screen is covered in snow. He could not explain why the courtesy car i had didnt do it, or any audi, ford etc. It is a setting that can be changed via coding. Along the lines of 'park when ignition off' change inactive to active. For ignition the wordibg used is terminal 15. It was in an octavia vcds thread and you can see the setting (in the tear wipe section) in the superb vcds thread.
