  1. The 2.0TSI 190 is a cracking engine and suits the Superb well. Its very responsive and quiet ,
  2. Have to agree with @Bap33 had mudflaps fitted recently and cant believe how clean the car keeps even through all this wet weather. Will definitely always fit mudflaps in future
  3. I changed my 19 inch tyres from OEM Bridgestone Potenza to Michelin Cross Climate 2 18 months ago, My average was 32.5 mpg under Bridgestone and interestingly has risen to 34.0 mpg with the Cross Climates. Another benefit was a quieter ride. Tyres were both standard 235/40 R19 and pressures were 36psi. Hope the above helps
  4. That would be great logic if you had not told everyone the facts in a forum!!
  5. Think you may be missing the point @310golfr, by taking your car in and getting the recall recorded in your service record .irrespective of what the dealer actually does you are covering yourself /the car should now anything untoward happen. You will have a problem with any insurance claim and when selling the car someone could flag up that it has recalls outstanding which could affect the decision to buy, Just a thought?
  6. Second what @numskull is saying - I have 19 inch wheels and when I changed the original Bridgestone Potenza to Michelin cross climate 2s the difference was startling - far far quieter and smoother than I expected. TBH I never would have believed that the choice of tyre could make such a huge difference . Motto for me is Keep the 19 inch wheels for the look and change to Michelin cross climate 2s for the ride.
  7. Sorry I worded that very badly - what I was trying to say that my SEL interior leather and chrome is as good as a new Mercedes E Class and a top of the range Volvo costing 50k+
  8. Hi @Bud totally disagree about the interior quality - my last two cars from new were Mercedes E class and Volvo S90 and the chrome and leather in my SE L is no worse than those.
  9. Just a thought , could certain drivers rest there hand on the DSG handle as a habit whilst driving and not realise they may be "picking at the handle?, I know it can happen on TV remote controllers -just ask my wife!!😁
  10. On my MY2020 build Amundsen MIB2,5 there is no b pillar button. You can disable interior monitoring /tilt protection via the infotainment menu or the short cut push the lock button twice within 2 seconds.
  11. Totally agree with @Shuggyboatsuperb I always have my MOT done at an independent before having a service with the main dealers
  12. Thank you for replying vegarz with this information. I bought the latest Skoda SD card with 2023 maps off Ebay for £20 last year and yes it works no problem. Cheers
  13. Hi Guys. Reading this thread its obvious that you know your stuff regarding updates. Do you mind if I hijack this thread to ask if you can help me to understand what system I have and how much out of date I am.? My car is August 2019 first reg on a facelift 2.0TSI Hatchback SEL serviced every year at the local main dealer - my infotainment is Amundsen MB2 /2.5 ? Screen says Device 565035874 Hardware H41 Software 0477 Navigation 5L0051236CR 1910 ECE AS 2023 Shield 2016-44 ( build 309) Can you tell me from the above do I have the MB2.5 Amundsen ( I have virtual cockpit if that helps!!) and am i up to date with softwar 1 am 73 so not good on this type of thing so any help would be appreciated Thanks
  14. Hi numskull. Today there were two other people waiting with me having their recall investigated. I drive a 2.0TSI 190 hatch and one of the others has a 2.0TDI 190 estate so I would assume the answer to your question would be yes, Petrol and diesel Cheers
  15. Had mine in for the recall today . when asked what was done the dealer told me it the protection mat has been re- fitted. I noticed on the record it says "recall 47U5 - criterion 1 " Cheers
