Superb SE L vs Sportline Plus
Oh I always thought it was lower, I’ve seen some unbutchered ones and sit lower then my SEL with 19”s

Battery cold climates
That’s what I’ll be replacing mine with and is pretty much the biggest and most powerful, but I still can’t see that starting a car at almost -30. I wonder if cars sold elsewhere have a bigger battery tray to fit bigger batteries

Superb SE L vs Sportline Plus
No links but sportline is more sporty then SEL It’s lower, probably snazzier wheels, no leather seats as it’s alcantara, not much else is different between the specs One thing I will say is be cautious of dealerships offering “a deal not to be missed” it’ll benefit them more than you! Unless you’ve been actively looking for a replacement do more homework, like is the tax higher as I’m sure it changed in the last few years, is insurance higher because it’s now a “sport” model

Battery cold climates
Does the Superb have a more powerful battery in cold climates like Finland? I’ve been watching this https://www.youtube.com/live/LwihxyJ4V20?si=1ja_gdQev90V9ydm recently and saw a few cheeky Skodas parked in the Audi only bays all day and temperatures are silly cold, yesterday at 4pm ish it was almost -30 They got in their car and off they went, my car struggles when it’s nearly minus numbers (it is old and original from 2016) but just wondering if they have more powerful batteries and would be a good choice even though temps never get that low here in England at least

Superb 3 heater matrix replace Ireland
I’m tired but surely you’d find the source of the contamination first? Do you actually have any issues? This just reads as paying their Christmas bonus 😁

DSG AutoHold at Traffic Lights without brake pedal held down
Like others had said if on your console the button with A is not lit then auto hold is not enabled, hold it down for a few seconds and it’ll turn orange, which means enabled When that’s on rock up at a lights, use your brake pedal then let go and shouldn’t be moving. You are then free to do what I imagine other people do and pick your nose, scratch your ass, check yourself in the mirror and completely ignore the fact the lights are green 😂

Paint peeling from rear boot
Post the original reg up, that’ll be at another dealership in no time I suspect, bit of a oh crap someone’s realised from the dealership. One for people to avoid

Upgraded your OE Xenons? Goodho - What’s your Opinion?
I don’t believe it’s too far away. A lot of other European countries you can use the road legal Osram and Philips LED. If you had a Superb in say Germany or France (many other countries but closest so just listed them) with reflector (maybe projector lenses too) headlights it’s legal to use. Many other cars on the approved list too and seems to be growing all the time I look, so legal there no reason why not legal here but DVSA is slow, they’ve recently allowed motorbikes to retrofit LED so it is coming 😁

What bulbs are fitted to the S3 & upgraded bulb recommendations
I used my car last night and seemed a lot brighter, I used them later on and remembered my council is stingy and dim the street lights at 11pm. I’d say it’s worth it and even though when I took the pictures I wasn’t massively impressed they are still way better than originals

What bulbs are fitted to the S3 & upgraded bulb recommendations
This is inside before and after after this is what I bought with BF discount https://autobeam.co.uk/collections/382-p21w/products/led-382-reverse-unit-set I reckon we’d get the Wow factor with the ones JR RS uses but only in Australia and I suspect shipping is crazy. No errors on dash though which is good, maybe if it was pitch black it would be better but not many times I’d be reversing when it’s pitch black

So results in, better but no blown away before after it looks nice and bright there but inside can’t really notice much difference

Service Indicator Reset
It was unlimited, I did see 3 vin but if you want more you need to buy a 10 vin then from 10 you can go to unlimited. The 3 vin, I guess that’s in total as oppose to 3 every 12 months or so?

Service Indicator Reset
Ah mines on yearly, so hoping it’ll stick to that. Keep meaning to get VCDS but at nearly £500 my arse gets a headache

Service Indicator Reset

Is this a good price for the Superb L&K Saloon
Wise choice, getting called from them is only in their interest. I kept getting called from my local dealership saying “Your car is in demand, we’ll give you a great deal” I said unless it’s a direct swap for a brand new one stop cold calling with your fakeness, been quiet ever since apart from rubbish in the post about “VIP deals” it’s so fake it’s annoying and childish. OK rant over haha

What have you done to your Superb III today?
I’d say it was probably 30meters at least on high beam With 1 full turn I think it’s just about right, no blinding at all but I’ll find out in march with the MOT

What have you done to your Superb III today?
I went for a doggo walk earlier and was pitch black when we got back Got two more pictures, I do think they’re getting brighter slowly as I noticed more on the motorway, still only 2 hours I’ll do another light post around mid December as I’ll have more then 2hours use by then
