Oil
Hello, Hopefully just a daft question, is 5w-30 (vw 504/507 & 505/505.01) the correct oil for 2016 190ps diesel? https://msdspds.castrol.com/bpglis/FusionPDS.nsf/Files/C2F9054530066FF980258AE7004603DE/$File/wepp-c9c9jv.pdf I usually just buy Castrol Edge and not actually done my own oil change on my Superb myself yet. Iām sure I read the spec got changed to 0w-30 on here but couldāve been for a petrol Cheers

I need to replace a headlamp washer cover on my Mk3
Maybe this? Looks like you just pull it. MK7 golf but close enough and bound to similar

Front radar
I would expect an array of error messages ACC and emergency breaking as a minimum. Bits can be replaced and recalibrated but not straight forward from what Iāve seen

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Gave my car a gentle wash, went to Cornwall recently then the storm hit, despite being tucked out of the way and about a mile away from the beach my car got covered in sand Whole car was like that apart from A pillar which must have flown off on the way home but no where else

Front bumper off unfortunately I take it your replacing whole headlight and not just changing bulb?

Skoda warranty conundrum (& quote check)
To be honest Iād be surprised if anyone of that was considered possible for warranty claim due to āwear and tearā exclusion. At the very least sort out brake hose first

Start Stop Stall
Varta A7 if AGM, as well as changing the BEM code youāll need to change from 68ah to 70ah or whatever the new one is Regarding the stalling is it auto? I had this a few times few years back and never happened since after changing original rear discs and pads, coincidence hmm

Fumes in car
If DPF is blocked theyāll be errors and lights galore, does your fan run when you stop and turn ignition off? If so thatās doing a regen which does smell funky but only outside (or should be) Might be worth giving it the italian tune up for 15 minutes anyway, if you donāt have country lanes then go on the motorway and keep it in 3rd or 4th so the RPMās over 2-3k. Have you tried recirculating mode on for air vents? Pull your pollen filter out too, but do it correctly by placing cardboard under pollen filter first! Then bring out pollen filter on its own!

Windscreen Replacement
Ah you might have what I believe is called a5 camera for traffic sign recognition. If so not sure but I bet @ApertureS will know for sure
-
Windscreen Replacement
Over here we have AutoGlass and I insisted they replace windscreen with an OEM one after a failed chip repair, if you can do the same Iād recommend it and only cost me Ā£10 in total Everything worked perfectly afterwards, ACC radar is on the bonnet by the way

Fumes in car
Hmm, next things Iād try then would be start the car and lift bonnet on and have a smell around but make sure itās not a windy day just on exhaust your exhaust fumes donāt get blown forward. Secondly have the air controls set to recirculating only then turn it off and keep it off then go for drives. If you smell fumes in your engine bay then itāll be a case of trying to find it, maybe find a garage which can put a probe around to see if that can detect fumes (Iām sure such a device exists) I think itāll just be a case of hunting, unlikely to be DPF issues at such low mileage tbh, if it was 360k miles then yeah

Fumes in car
No idea on the values but if itās blocked then it would pop up as an error id like to think. Ignoring that side of things have you changed pollen filter recently and is your air quality sensor working? I believe when air quality sensor is working correctly it puts the car into recir mode automatically. Is it 100% coming from your own car? If you were out driving when no oneās about and you can smell it then itāll be your car. Also not to sound rude but can others smell it in your car or just you? Could have been behind a stinky vehicle now you are smelling for it, if that makes sense

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Did you buy the orange ramps? I got a pair ages ago but couldnāt drive my SEL on it as the front bumper would scrape, despite having a wheel arch gap big enough to fit a family of 4. I had to put some wood In front, Iād rather not but wondering if you got the same ramps

Windscreen washing pump not working
Not sure about relays Does your car have xenons? If so keep activating the washer and see if the headlight washers work. If not itāll probably be best to take wheel arch liner off anyway and get testing with a multi meter when you try to wash your windscreen
-
Windscreen washing pump not working
Does the rear wash work? If it does then itās 100% the pump on the washer bottle itself and 2 way valve broken Then all you need to do is remove wheel and wheel arch liner and replace

Pressure sensor or not ? Glow plugs
I was randomly looking at glowplug videos yesterday on YouTube looks straight forward āSkoda superb glow plugs replacementā āvw Passat glow plug replacementā should find loads then Someone did use wd40 to release. How many miles and has yours done? Seems glow plugs failing quite common now looking here, it is colder now though so being used harder I suppose
