Yep, the car has a service pack until 2029 and I'd be happy to just give it to the Skoda Pennant Hills except for the $4200 bill. I reckon the parts needed would be quite a bit less than $1000 so it's a big jump! Unless there's some electronic sorcery involved, i don't see why there should be such a big premium. I'll check out VisionOne tomorrow. They're only about 20mins from me. I was also going to call North Sydney Automotive and get a comparative quote. Thanks for the pointer!

I's +1 Pennant Hills Skoda... they've been an excellent experience all around, in spite of my problematic relationship with my 2022 Superb. That said, i came upon this thread because i was looking for someone who could change the brakes and rotors on my car (52,000 kms) for less than the $4200 I was quoted by Skoda. I checked with Jax Tyres and they can do it for $2000 (Bosch rotors and pads which is what comes with the car), but I am hoping i could be pointed to a an independent mechanic / skoda/vw specialist.

Yep there's an USB-a port in front of the drive stick (huge for something that shifts itself and has paddle shifts). Makes it needlessly complicated to put the phone onto the wireless charging cubby. Also found there's a normal USB port in the console bin and it is a data connection (the phone connects up when i plug it in). I'll try plugging in a usb stick and see if it works, but actually really only just use my phone and youtube music anyway...

Thread resurrection! I picked up a 2022 Superb Sportline demonstrator last week and noticed there's no CD player either. I don't need it but wish there was a USB / SD input. Is there? On another thing, is there a way to remove the blanking plate they've used to cover where the CD player would have sat? I was thinking it would make a good spot to store small items rather than have them just rolling around in the glovebox or console bin. Also, great car! a bit numb coming out of a Clio 3 RS but i'm enjoying the quiet commute and it's ability to follow traffic without the 3 pedal shuffle. Took it up a few curvy roads and the 4x4 is very sure-footed in spite of the size. Miss the drama though. Even on sports the car is quite soft and plush, but that's expected of a big touring wagon.
