The iV has a fixed floor. You lose about 140 litres compared to the normal version. The cables do come with a cloth storage bag. I have ordered the Combi version of the boot liner that Aerofurb linked to earlier. It has been dispatched, so I will feedback when it arrives.

No problem. You have provided some really useful info. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Thanks for the info. As I am based in France, I am looking for a European supplier, so may as well use SuperSkoda.

I have asked the guys at SuperSkoda. I plan on fitting mudflaps, and a bumper protector as well, which I will buy from them.

I want to fit a boot liner to my iV estate, but before I buy one, can anyone recommend one that will still allow easy access to the cable storage compartment?

I picked up my MY20 Superb Combi IV on Tuesday. It is a “Style” with a few added options, as it was an ex-demonstrator from the Skoda dealership. Very happy with it so far. It has replaced a 2004 E46 320d Touring, which broke down for the first time in my 14 years of ownership the day before it got replaced.

I will see if I can get the dealer to pop a 1 litre bottle of the Skoda oil in the boot when I pick the car up.

Thanks, so ideally Castro’s Edge 0W-20 LL IV, although Mobil 1™ ESP X2 0W-20 meets the specifications of VW 508.00, although I am hoping I don’t need to top it up very often.

Thanks John. Mobil one is usually suitable for both. Having checked the specs of my car, it seems to be fixed servicing, due to the extended warranty, so no need for the Long Life oil.

I am picking my new (to me) Superb Combi iV up from the dealers on the 11th August. As France is in the holiday season, there is limited staff at the dealership. I know that the TSi engine can use a little oil between service intervals, so I am trying to find out what oil I need. Am I correct in thinking that it should be 0W-20 to VW 0.508 and VW 0.509 spec? I pick the car up, on my way to my holiday destination, swapping cars on the way, as I found an ex-dem model that ticks all of the boxes, at a significant discount. I just want to make sure I have a top up available should I need one. The plan was to take my spare Mobil 1 from my old car and swap it over, but as it is 5W-30 it will be ok for emergencies, but is probably not the grade that is already in it. The manual is not particularly good when it comes to the oil spec.

Hello, I am an ex-pat living in Toulouse, who is soon to become a Superb Combi IV owner.
