thanks for reply - I don't have any specific issues or requirements atm, but would like to be able to check status of as much as possible mechanically, plus read and reset codes should that be necessary at some point. I'm not familiar at all with what's available, and just looking for informed guidance. - pete.

What code scanner(s) do people recommend ? I want something reasonably good for a sensible price; ideally good for other vehicles as well as VAG, but not esssential.

after much thought I've decided to go for GoodyearVector 4Seasons Gen-3. I like the durability and all round performance, and trust the braking shortfall under test was more to do with the nature of the test track than inherent deficiency.

2not sure this would meet my towing needs too well . . .

any thoughts re switching from current 215-55-R17 to 225-55 (or65)- R17 ? - pete.

my car is 2.0 tdi 150ps, and i tow from time to time - so not interested in sporty performance.

I didn't include the Mich's on account of cost, but if they give sufficient xtra life then they need considering.

one point none of the reviews I've read talk about lifespan . . .

My 2nd enquiry from you seasoned skoda owners - any suggestions for best value all season tyres ? online surveys point to - Bridgestone Weather Control A005 EVO Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen-3 Contiental All Season Contact Hankook Kinergy 4S²

thanks for all yr opinons guys - i didnt expect to open up such an impassioned debate ; I've opted for Bosch (whether made in china or not) from Amazon, as nxt day inc dlvy matters. Hopefully Bosch still exercise some quality control. - pete.

TRW Autodoc - £48 1/2 - Bosch amazon - £38 (bth inc dlvy)

are TRW favourite over Bosch ?

To be clear - my superb is 2.0tdi 150ps 2016. VIN - TMBKH7NP8H7017079

Amsazon have Bosch for £38 (BP 1505) - any views ?

are Delphi any good (rec. by GSF)

how do i know disc/pad spec before dismantling ? (diameter, thickness, etc)

anyone have suggestions for best choice replacement pads, discs ?
