I don’t know who is the original supplier to ŠKODA, but my last car was a Jaguar and the Jag independent who serviced it recommended Pagid discs.

New discs and pads
27000 miles and the original Skoda discs looked ginger, not wanting to have the OEM discs fitted again I opted for Pagid discs and pads fitted by Volksmaster in Oldham. Great service and good value £600 discs and pads all round. 340mm front 310 rear

Space saver spare wheel
Those cargo elements are the one thing that's stopping me from buying a boot mat, I find them extremely useful.

Tailgate Leak
I will open the tailgate and take a look at the seal on mine next time I wash the car. It certainly looks odd with water sitting on top of the seal.

Dark reflectors
As above, the radar isn’t disturbed, even if you remove the bumper. The radar isn’t mounted on the bumper, but some distance behind. I didn’t remove the bumper, just the screws at the top. No screws at the bottom only clips, but the clips at the bottom are inaccessible without removing the bumper. I wasn’t bothered about keeping the old grill surrounded, so just broke it off when I‘d removed as much as I could(top and most of the sides). The new one simply clipped in and was a good fit. I refitted the the six screws.

Travel assist steering wheel sensor faulty
Is this a problem with the new style steering wheel? I haven’t read about it before on this site and these all new cars.

paddle shifter extensions
I bought a set of cheap paddle extenders, but decided against fitting them . I temporarily stuck them on with blu tack to get an idea of the ergonomics, and thought they would soon annoy me by me accidentally hitting them when using the stalks. Other paddle extenders maybe better though .

Hi , I’m new here, so please forgive me if I mess up this post. I recently de-badged and fitted darker Superskoda corner reflectors. I hope the attached pictures work! 😀
