What bulbs are fitted to the S3 & upgraded bulb recommendations
I have replaced my hid bulbs, I suppose they were stock ones. Philips Xenstart old ones. Osram Night Breaker 220 new ones. Light was tested at the same road, 1 day difference, same headlight settings and same camera manual settings. So comparison is valid, not amplified with camera auto settings. Upper old Lower new Left is main beam Right high beam

Rear Washer Leak Through Tailgate
Hose is broken amd it leaks from the trunk lid. It is jist lowest point. Try to open trunk,then close the lock by hand to trick it like it is closed and then use washer. You will notice water leaks from pilars of tailgate towards the car.

LPFP Upgrades
I do not know if they will fit, but 8R hpfp is pushing up to 350 bar, so different pump to. Did not saw anybody did this. Lpfp is also different, more flow, I think same as rs3 one.

I know, but 206kw injectors starting witk K ends to AH as last revision. And there is 06K for 200kw, first revision K, second and last revision N.

LPFP Upgrades
As I see, 06K...N is fot 272 engine, as well as R, TTS,... 06L...AH last revision is for 206kw CJXA and there is bosch replacement for that one. Akstuning: "These injectors are the part number from GPF (Gas Particulate Filter) models but will work in all 2.0 EA888 MQB platforms and offer a slightly higher flow rate over the non GPF original part numbers."

Not from tvs, but from other tuners makimg their own map. This platform is old enough that there are no secrets anymore. Tvs has the name, but still I know some people that have problem with tvs, similar as yours. For this kind of power Stage 1 tcu is enough. And other features included like no downshift in manual on kickdown, no automatic upshift, faster launch, faster gearchanges,... I will send you links in pm, not sure if it is allowed here. Btw I think rs3 di inkectors are same as ours. Do you have ref number of rs3 inj?

LPFP Upgrades
I am at 216.000km 🤣 I have replaced mpi and di injectors and hpfp. They were good, but like you wanted to be fresh. If di injectors are under risk, then using hpfp insert is still exosting problem. They usually push 220 bar and they stress injectors more. Lpfp + 980 mpi is safer bet, even with stock hpfp. Hpfp inserts can make a problem using with e85 as regular gasoline lubricates pump. Some people had problem with Autotech. Less with Vis. Not sure why they need to lower down power, it is already low, or better saying not high. I guess in manual you have faster shifting time then in auto, so you do not feel jerk. You would be able to see this with proper logging device. My tuning is done remotely with Simos tools. Tuner is in UK. No power cuts and with bigger turbo and power/torque. For reference I would say mime is of the fastest Pmax Superbs, did not saw faster one on gas. 100-200km/h 8.65s With previous tuner I had cuts. If you nuy Simos tools dongle, useful for fast speed logging, dtc check, erase,... you could buy tcu map online and flash it to your car for 200-300e. And dongle is 70e with shipping. I can send you links.

Does this happen in Auto and Manual mode? It could be it pulls timing in Auto, so you feel jerk. Looking at your graph I do not know why you replaced so many things for such a low power. You could run that power with Stage 1 alone, on gasoline. For such power I would opt for intercooler and downpipe instead of LPFP and HPFP mods, more reliable power. And you would be also able to run E85, I think (I am not sure) there is enough fuel with stock pumps to run E85 to 400hp (crank) or even little bit more. You did both mods which is sufficient for 550+ hp I am on stock fueling (stock LPFP, MPI, HPFP) with do88 intercooler, Milltek 200 cell downpipe and PowerMax Stage 1. Not yet measured but from my assumptions it is 460+ hp. I run Stage1 (ECU+TCU) without any mods with 350hp and 480nm for years without any other mod.

Electric Tailgate not locking
Anyone tried to adjust latch on bottom part of trunk, where lock grabs? I guess this is the solution. Lock is working clearly. I have the same problem. Sometimes it pulls tailgate down and locks, sometimes not. When it does not lock, I have to press tailgate to lock it, it just misses a little bit. When it does not lock, I do not hear electric motor even trying to pull it down. No specific cases, recently changed battery, still the same. I even try adjusting the tailgate with two rubber stops and plastic limiters on the sides of the trunk, without success. I can make it work if I choose little bit lower upper position of tailgate and in that case when it closes it "slams" tailgate and lock it automatically. But it is annoying to have it at that height (around 170cm), so I hit my head when I want to take something from the trunk. My suspicion is that latch moved a little bit down and there is not enough movement in the lock to sense it needs to activate electric motor to lock it/pull it down. I did not tried to slowly try to activate lock with hand and see if it continues to lock it. I think there is no other sensor as I tried just to lock it by hand and then it thinks trunk is closed. I will also try to loosen latch, there are two round plastic covers on the sides of bottom trunk trim and you can reach screws for latch trough them to loosen it up and bring it little bit closer to tailgate/higher.

Any new updates @HGFRENCH ? How tuning ended up?

Res Delete on 2018 Skoda Superb (2.0 Petrol)
Here are my two videos. Res delete, Stage 1, 200 cell downpipe. Downpipe almost has no effect in sound. Drone starts at 2800rpm.

Great to hear! Autotech, VIS? E5 is I guess weak mix to make big problems. You have some times 100-200 for such power?

@KeithRBrown do you have final figures with PMax1? I did turbo swap week ago, to Powermax Stage 1. There is still place for improvement of maps, which will be done in following period and with stock hpfp pressure is droping after 6000rpm, but power figures are promissing. 424hp and 560nm on 95 441hp and 593nm on 98 We do not have 100 octane fuel even it is advertised as 100, it is more 98. So 100oct map was not measured, but I can guess it is 450-460/600nm I will probably go hpfp upgrade route. I am concerned about long term reliability. But it seems that problems come with E blend, which I do not intend to use, since we do not have it on gas stations. I guess there is lack of lubrication with E. Car feels really fast and it is. I went from Stage 1 350hp/480nm to Stage 3, so it is significant increase. I do not feel lag (it is comparable to Stage 1 responsivnes) and how it pulls in 4th is totaly different league.

Superb sleeper
It is just strange that this car is so slow. On CarWow it performed poorly. 12.4s 1/4 and they usually do 1ft roll measurements. I am doing that time with Stage 1 on old Gen3 engine (without 1ft roll with 350hp/480nm). The one in "Sleeper" Superb is gen4 engine, 7 speed DSG, 120hp more... So it it pretty lazy and does not have stated power, for sure.

Shock absorber help please
If they are leaking, just top them up every 10.000km
