In my case, 23 Kodiaq RS with everything except Canton and heated wheel. Has a current squib/clockspring part 5Q1 953 569 J. I’ve done this retrofit on a pre FL Superb but just unsure of the Kodiaq part numbers. Any help or insights greatly appreciated.

Hi, may I ask which clock spring / slip ring part did you use for this?

Can any facelift Kodiaq owners with a heated steering wheel help me out and tell me what part number their clockspring is? I’m doing a retrofit and currently have 5Q1 593 569 A. I can see that B and C revisions cater for heated wheels but unsure which is correct. Car has ACC and lane assist. Many thanks!

Just take your steering wheel trim off and check your clockspring part number. It’s dead easy as the part labels are on top of the steering column when you pop it up. Don’t even need to remove the wheel. Here is mine in my 2017 Superb. Obviously once you know what clockspring you have you’ll know which clockspring you’ll need and hopefully which version of the loom you’ll need. This link will be helpful as they talk through the wiring in the plugs. You could even reach out to them with your specific questions. https://wirer.sk/o3_volant22-vyhrev/

Thanks @Awesam That’s actually my post on the 206 group!😂 Also dropped a thread in this forum on the install here: https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/534023-retrofittingupgrading-to-a-progressive-steering-rack/

So folks, I’ve done it! I’ve retrofitted the progressive MQB steering rack into the SuperB and it’s awesome! Original rack: 5Q0 909 144 R Progressive rack: 3Q0 909 144 L My 2017 206 came with dynamic steering 2.8 turns to lock and I’ve never loved it. Feels vague on centre and then is not particularly quick to lock. Never felt sporty, even after my coder helped me make the weight heavier using Audi coding/setting. The new rack was from a 2017 RS3 with the progressive ratio and 2.1 turns to lock. In reality it’s more like 2.0 once installed in the SuperB. Install: The mechanic installed it for me today because $@&# that for a joke and also I have no annual leave left. After the physical install by dropping the sub frame, the most painful part was having to drop the glovebox to access the fuse box because the wires lead through the firewall. Rod ends and boots were all re used from my previous rack. Coding: Mechanic ran out of day so I did the VCDS coding tonight in module 44. Old rack coding was 9307. New rack was 91170000. 9307 didn’t work but 93070000 did so I ran with it. After that I did the G85 steering angle calibration. Took a few goes as I wasn’t holding it still long enough. That cleared the 7 million error lights on the dash except for ACC. A restart cleared ACC error. The result: On center it feels much the same as I expected it to but once you get to turns of about 20-30 degrees it’s way sharper/quicker. Feels much sportier now carving corners. The weighting has reverted to the previous stock light weight, even in sport so I will have to go back to my coding wizard for a fresh update to firm it up a little. Overall very happy and I would recommend it. Cost for the rack was AUD $330 used from a wrecker. Mechanic labour will be maybe 3-4hr.

Wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who contributed to this awesome thread. This thread including all its links has been pretty much everything I needed to get this done. Summary is: 2017 Superb 206 wagon. Wheel 5E3419093AM VKJ Airbag 5E3880201D IZY Clockspring 5Q0953569C Kufatec HSW retrofit loom 43696-1 (extended for RHD) LIN bus adapter cars Equipment full function LIN adapter. Along the way I figured a few things out: The clockspring 569C needs to have software (SW) version equal to or later than your current SW on 569A. You can skip pulling the fuse panel out and messing around with the wires at the back by using a fuse wire tap (see pics). Let’s you plug straight in, cut off tip of Kufatec loom positive wire and crimp into the fuse wire tap. For me I had an unused terminal 30 fuse at SC24 (see pic below. Empty slot in middle of pic) which was for a sunroof I don’t have. The rear wiper fuse spot will also work for sedan cars. Overall thrilled and very happy apart from my MIB 2 high nav showing my location about 2km off actual location. I guess you can’t win em all 😂.

Ok. Mission accomplished! Using the Kufatec loom (LHD) on a RHD Superb with some wiring extensions, the Cars Equipment LIN adapter (full version), and a 569 C clockspring, it all came together. The magic sauce was using a fuse wire tap in an unused Terminal 30 location. For me that was SC24 where the sunroof fuse goes (I don’t have a sunroof). The good thing about this is you don’t need to get behind the fuse panel, literally just need to find an empty slot with a positive terminal 30 socket wired, plug fuses into the tap and crimp in your positive wire from the heated steering wheel loom in. Lesson learned along the way was that not all 5Q0 953 569 C clocksprings will work. You need one with a SW version equal to or later than yours or the adaptation coding in 08 HVAC won’t work. Sadly sold it already, soz!

Yeah, I only discovered that after I’d already ordered the adapter 🥲

It will eventually. I have to install the Kufatec wiring loom, clock spring and do all the coding to make that work. Hopefully by next weekend. Once done the MIB holds a bunch of settings for it under Air Conditioning.

Ok, test fitted the wheel with module and everything works except the heating button (as I haven’t wired or coded it yet) and the ACC button as that requires coding to work too. This is using the cars equipment full function LIN module. Very happy with the progress so far! Apologies for the chicken legs in the photos, promise I’m wearing shorts!

@Legion @langers2k @ApertureS bringing this back from the dead again and seeking any experience. Did anyone here ever go through with a retrofit of a progressive/dynamic rack? I’m keen to try this in my 2017 Superb 206/280 with ACC and lane assist. I understand we’d need to: Obtain the right steering rack setup (potentially 3Q0909144M or 5Q1423053AF) Potentially obtain a new module (?). Obtain the coding /parameters from a Superb with this progressive rack to accommodate ACC, lane assist etc. (noting the VIN provided above). Install and code all this in with ODIS/VCP etc. Follow up questions (noting I’ve not provided many specifics about my current setup): Does this sound about right? Any guidance on which rack part number(s) to go for? Any known/expected attachments, modules or wiring looms required?

Yeah, if you pay full fat for the module it ain’t cheap but there is a DIY solution out there on drive.ru. I just don’t have the time and am impatient.

Not sure on it all yet but I’ve found the wheel and airbag used for about €100 combined. The LIN bus looks like the most expensive at €200. Kufatec loom €50. Clock spring will find used, maybe €50-70.

Ok, I’ve used google to search the forum more comprehensively (yes, I’m incompetent) and compiled the list of parts. I’ve also confirmed Cars Equipment were happy to post the module overseas for me. I will update this thread again after install. Parts required: Wheel: 5E3419093AM VKJ (other parts also apply for the wheel) Airbag: 5E3880201D IZY (wheel dependent, yet to confirm this via test) Clockspring: 5Q0953569C (based on search, tbc at fitting) Kufatec Heated steering wheel retrofit loom: 43696-1 (for cars without heated steering wheel) LIN bus adapter options: https://www.cars-equipment.com/en/shop/radio-adapter-can-bus-decoder-22/canbus-adapter-reduction-for-steering-wheel-2/ https://skoda-acc.com/Skoda-steering-wheel-buttons-adapter-Full-S0001F https://battle-giver-65e.notion.site/Steering-wheel-module-18eb3eb13c27800e91d8f7cf3f5b1e67

Yeah, the airbag is specific to the wheel, so assuming that can all be sourced, it looks like I just need to get this Canbus adaptor to enable the right hand side buttons. https://www.cars-equipment.com/en/shop/radio-adapter-can-bus-decoder-22/canbus-adapter-reduction-for-steering-wheel-2/ Hopefully they’re willing post it to Australia!

Hi All! Can anyone link me to a thread or tell me the parts (and part numbers) required to retrofit the 2022 onwards steering wheel into a 2017 Superb? Have access to a skilled coder with ODIS etc. I had a search but can’t find the right details. I’ve seen a few facebook ads for the upgrade so assume it must be possible but need some help. Thanks!

Bringing this back from the dead with an MQB example of the 2.8 rack being swapped to the 2.1 on an Alltrack Golf. Includes install, coding discussion and a YouTube clip. https://www.datadrivenmqb.com/suspension/steeringrackretrofit

It’s well sealed now and if I want to remove it I can simply replace the bung. Not planning on taking it swimming either!

As the title suggests, I’ve been playing around with a Kufatec sound booster on my SuperB. I was never really happy with any of the EA888 exhaust options. None of them could fill the V8/EJ25 shaped hole on my heart so decided to have some fun with it. Scrounged together the parts second hand over about 12 months and eventually got it all together. There is no space under the car for the sound module so put it in the spare wheel well. This is not a big deal for me as the space saver spare doesn’t fit over my big brakes anyway so was an easy option. Used expanding foam and Sika flex to hold it in place. The module outlet faces down over one of the bung plugs in the wheel well…. I got my hands on a few OEM exhaust sound modules including the Kodiaq RS, Audi SQ5 and Maserati Ghibli. The Kodiaq module has profiles that are very diesel sounding. The Audi module is better but the way it translates revs sounds quite artificial. Profile 3 on the Audi module was my favorite. The Maserati module has the most realistic output in my opinion. Seems to have more layered and chaotic engine noises that are less linear on acceleration than the Kodiaq and Audi modules. The profiles are quite loud and day to day I’ve dialed the volume back to around 40-50% to give a slight but noticeable burble above the stock exhaust. To give the best indication of the result here is a video of the full-fat profile 5 option with 70-100% volume, irregular idle and a slight startup flare with the Maserati module… The intention is to keep this for the sloppy V8 burble and go to stage 2 and get some DSG farts on top of it.

I think it will work ok. I have a Kodiaq Sportline steering wheel in my Superb 2017 LOL

There is a super-detailed how to on the install, part numbers and coding here: There is also the possibility to fit new MFSW buttons with a VIEW button. - 3V0 919 719 E (manual) - 3V0 919 719 F (DSG)

You also need the optical cable thing and trim piece above the steering wheel. here is an example of a seller offering both 5A and 5C: Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! AU$866.37 | For Skoda Superb 2014---2019 Cocpit LCD virtual cockpit cluster 3VD 920 790 https://a.aliexpress.com/_mNB32Ze

The part number for both the old immobilizer and new immobilizer virtual cockpit is 3VD920790 but there are two versions: 5A for 2016-2019 and the newer 5C for 2020+ You need the 5A version I believe. Double check with your coding expert.
