It's not uncommon, a lot of wireless chargers have fans built-in because of this. I'm assuming yours doesn't? -
Sorry, I'm a little confused. It's global yes, but I've got G13 in at the moment I assume, so no?

Can I please piggy back on the back of this thread. I started my car a couple of days ago and the warning came on for low coolant. I started for the return journey and it didn't come on... I think the difference being, the first time I was on a slope. Anyway, I searched Amazon for G13 Coolant, which has just come and I realise it's actually G30. Great. Does this particularly matter? I should also probably just go and have a look at the coolant level... but thought I'd ask if I should just use this G30 if it was low, or try and send it back and get G13? Thanks!

I found this thread as I was looking to see how I simply save my seat setting. I'm sure I've tried holding set, then pressing the number, but maybe I didn't hold set for long enough? I'm now interested in this 'different settings for different keys' thing. If the manual is poor, is there a simple guide somewhere on the net? Thanks.

Parts For Sale: FOR SALE - Winter Mats & Boot Liner SOLD

I'm interested in the boot liner. I'm down in London though... 😞 It would probably cost as much to post as it would for the liner... -
bosch A403H rear wiper blade?
AndyCr15 replied to paddywack1878's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Interesting. I'm looking to replace mine due to the noise. Would the same wiper fit a 2018 Estate? Thanks -

Have you tried a new cable? -
Well not too hard... but I did give it some, as you said I couldn't' break it 😜

After taking some other advice and watching a YouTube video I have managed to align the door by adjusting the bottom hinge. It's pretty much perfect now. Dropping the car in later to have the dents sorted, £450 +VAT, so not too bad I think.

Dashcam Parking Mode and Battery Drain
AndyCr15 replied to AndyCr15's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
Thanks, I might need to wait until it goes in for some other work as I'm not good with electrics. Mind you, I think these do a good job of shutting themselves down when the car isn't moving, so maybe they're okay. I would rather have them hard-wired though... -
Thanks, I went at it pretty hard and got it to move in a little closer for my 4 hour drive home, so it helped. Got one quote from a place in Broxbourne for £450. I'm also being recommended a place just down the road from me in Barnet, so will check them out tomorrow.

Thanks, and this is what I keep telling my mum. I don't think either of us slept too well. I feel bad that she feels bad, but these things happen and are fixable, so let's not stress too much about them!

I've now been able to look at it in better light... I was really worried the whole door was misaligned, but I think it's basically that the impact has bent the whole door in a concave way. I know that sounds bad, but I was really worried the chassis had been bent in some way, so the door didn't align properly. So far I've been recommended Brian L Shilton in Epping and Rich Body Car in Broxbourne. I've emailed both for quotes.

I'm a little confused tbh. Obviously I don't want my mum stressing about this, but at the same time it's my new car, I'm rather upset it's damaged already. Maybe if I had a secure job I'd just get it fixed myself, but I'm being made redundant next year and ever penny counts at the moment. (This is the reason I changed cars, getting something sensible that I can afford to run) Surely if the door or more importantly the frame/chassis around the door is bent out of alignment it could be quite a problem? You would really just try and bend the door on its hinges back into alignment and not think anything more of it? I'm not even sure how I would do that?

I'm staying with my mother for a few days and unfortunately she's reversed into my new pride and joy, my 2018 Skoda Superb where the front wing meets the drivers door. There is a small dent but it's enough to move the alignment and the top of the door actually sticks out slightly. Obviously, she's going to pay for the repair. Now I'm torn between having it done by someone very good, but also getting it done as cheap as possible. I've not really had to do this kind of thing before (I think it's almost 30 years since my last car damage) so I'm looking for any advice? Does anyone know someone good in North London? Should I just go to Skoda? If it matters I think the car colour is quite unique? (Petrol Blue?)
