Hi all. I had to remove the rear bench so had to unclip the electrics for the rear bench heated seat elements. I put them back together exactly as they were originally, but after this they didn't want to switch on again. The centre console has power, the clock works and the kids can use the 12v socket for charging stuff, but the buttons for the rear seats won't activate the seat heating. Has anyone got any experience with this? I've tried:- Making sure the battery is full, just incase it's a charge issue Checked and replaced the fuses Ran VCDS diagnostic (auto scan), but no fault codes I'm totally confused what the issue could be. Can anyone point me to the specific area in the VCDS software, where you can configure and activate the rear heated seats please? I'm wondering if there might be a configuration issue. I have looked through 08 auto HVAC and can only see options and settings for the front heated seats,not the rears. Thanks in advance all 🙏

Hi JR, yes i intend to use those jacking areas, not the sills. I'll update you on my progress. I'll measure my holes for the jacking points, if they are 2.6cm then i'll grab the amazon ones. I wouldnt need to leave them in situ, i could remove and place wherever i need to jack at the moment in time, so maybe as long as the pad is big enough in diameter i'll just need one and move it around.

Superdoopa, I've managed to sourch one of these from Skoda in Leamington Spa. It's going to take a couple of day s to arrive, but ive managed to find it for £15.32 inc VAT. The part code, if you're interested is - 5E0713147 If anyone has any vids on how to change this, that would be awesome. I've found a few youtube vids for other shifters, but not this one yet 👍😎

Hi, has anyone got any experience with jacking point protective pads? Sorry if this has already been posted somewhere else, i did search but i couldnt find anything. I want to jack my superb up to check the wheel bearings, but i only have a trolly jack and i can see this scratching and not being too kind to my underneath due to its raw metal head. I've found these on amazon that look ok - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pad，Jack-Compatible-Replacement-Protects-Dedicated/dp/B07ZT54NQ2/ref=sr_1_18?crid=20Y7CG8M9FYQX&keywords=jack+lift+pad+skoda+2&qid=1679565822&sprefix=jack+lift+pad+skoda+2%2Caps%2C62&sr=8-18 Powerflex do a set, but these are way too expensive - https://id-workz.co.uk/products/powerflex-jacking-point-insert-4-pack-for-skoda-superb-09-11?variant=41620125155486&currency=GBP&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gclid=CjwKCAjwzuqgBhAcEiwAdj5dRulik5bH5e5kisXdLtQkLe7GGevLL2DOSldu-GPOmt9U5NrTN18dzRoCm3QQAvD_BwE Thnaks in advance for the help 👍😎

Really? Yes, please let me kow and id love to know how easy it is to fit please mate, saves a lot of messing around 😎👍

Superdoopa, thanks so much for that link. At least if i screw it up painting it i have a get out option of buying a new part. Thanks all for your input 😁👍

Thanks for the response guys, appreciate the feedback. Its more of a fill and patch required rather than a perfect finish, i probably wont be able to see it when im sat in the car, i kind of just need something there to fill the space so its not so sharp and if i can create some sort of shiny mirror like finish that would be spot on..........hmmmmmm its a tricky one. I might get a few different options together and try them out on some scrap plastic first, get it as close as i can then go from there. Cheers for the help guys 😁

Hi guys, totally new here, so apologise if I’ve posted on thew wrong area, if I have please direct me to the right chat / posting area. I just bought my first Skoda yesterday, I’m now the proud owner of a 2014 L&K Superb Mk2 and I absolutely love it 😁 The ca has been looked after so well, it’s almost mint, just a couple of improvements here and there and it'll be like new. Has anyone had experience with touching up the chrome on any of the plastic interior areas of their cars? As you can see from the pic the chrome has cracked and chipped off here, it’s a little bit sharp so I do catch my fingers on it, it doesn’t hurt and there’s no risk of cuts, but I’m concerned it’s only going to get worse then crack and chip further. I was thinking some modelling paint might do the trick of touching it up, but it might need filling every so slightly first then touching up with some sort of paint. If anyone has any experience with this type of repair I’d love to hear about it, any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance guys 👍😎
