My OEM tyres were these and when I renewed the back tyres @ 26k, I replaced them with the same. So I can't really compare. The front ones had been changed to Pirelli prior to my getting the car with and IMHO the pirelli are noisier. When they need replacing I will use the ventus prime again.

There is a 25% discount at the moment for Black Friday and free postage so makes a difference.

Okay, strange as it may seem, I've had my Superb for over 2 years now and last week was the first time I have been out in the dark. I was shocked how poor the light quality was, especially dipped beam. I was on a B road on dip and never went above 20mph. So I'm thinking of changing the bulbs, especially the dipped (LowBeam) bulb. I've had a look through the forum but can't find much about these, plenty about fogs, indicators, reversing and interiors. I looked on various sites and found AutobulbsDirect.co.uk, and when I entered my VRN they showed appropriate bulbs. If I am going to replace I am getting the best I can afford and the ones I chose were: Low beam - D3S Osram nightbreaker Laser Xenarc +220% @ £199.20 a pair. For main beam - H7 Osram nightbreaker 220% 12v 55w @ £47.50. I was surprised that low beam bulbs were so expensive. So are these bulbs any good, has anyone fitted them, was it easy and were there any problems. TIA.

I changed my battery last year from EFB to AGM. Never even thought about memory savers. Changed it over then let the engine management know battery type had changed using OBD11. Started up and drove off with no problems.

I had this problem. I got round it by having music playing. When the music muted, it meant Waze was making an announcemnt. Turn the radio volume up at that point. I could hear the announcements after that. Hope it helps.

you can buy an anti slip matting roll from Halfords. 45cm wide and 125cm long. You can cut it to size to fit your dash quite easily with scissors. Just over a fiver.

I updated my MY2017 in 2022 when I got it, with no problems, but won't bother again. I use Waze which is constantly updated and far less trouble. If you go down this route the only thing I would advise is to use a really good quality short cable from the socket to the phone.

I have changed batteries on two keys now on my 2018 2l with no problems. CR205.

Having heard of the horrors stories about these bags bursting, I replaced my header tank with a new one, with no bag. I have paid for a 2 year warranty, recovery, 2 services and MOTs. Could they refuse to honour this because I changed the header tank.

The tfc announcments arn't as comprehensive, only local radio stations. (or not so local) I,m in Somerset and only get Welsh announcements . Drove up to Scotlalnd last month and got local updates all the way.

TBH, I didn't notice any difference. Perhaps the one click app didn't work.

I've used the one touch apps for some things, (Before I read about all the things that could go wrong). Changed comfort indicator from 3 to 5, throttle response, and something on the front lights. Had no problems at all. Won't use then now though. I used OBD11 to recode battery when changed to AGM. Straightforward job.

I have the Pro plan and had no problems with coding the battery, so looks like you will need to upgrade to that. I got mine in July last year, cost £107 and still have 298 days left before renewal. I reckon it was worth it, I have done a few one click ops, found a problem with memory seats, so saved cost of dealer scan, and coded battery.

I changed the long code to the date with leading zeros to fill it, ie today 2 Oct 23 would be0000021023. So then you have a record of when battery was replaced. Of course If the capacity is higher than original, change that also, and change type from EFB to Fleece which is the name Skoda uses for AGM

Yes, I clicked on 15, got a box with 32771 and changed that to 14.
