Skoda Octavia mk.2 2.0 tdi Elegance, ENGINE & DPF light on
I don't see option at local stations for premium diesel, all seem to be b7 same pumps. Warning came on again this morning it took longer this time for light to go out, about 30 minute drive in 4th gear at 2000+ revs. Not sure if adding the dpf cleaner will make it better or worse! Maybe it will try to regen more then, I think it lowers the temp for regens to happen

Yea it was 5w30 valvoline oil, never used it before I just get diesel in same place for years, what's premium diesel? I thought all pumps were the same at petrol station

Skoda Octavia mk.2 2.0 tdi Elegance, ENGINE & DPF light on
Car seems to idle at just under 1000, only had this dpf light after last service, I went to a different garage than usual go to, it would hardly be because of different brand of oil? Noticed a week after service the dpf light, first time it came on since owned car 5 years ago Seems to light up every 3-400 miles then goes off after driving in lower gear for 10 mins Often hear radiator fan coming on for few minutes after a drive also

Car seems to be running fine, feel a bit of a judder at times, mainly short runs this past year, it used to do longer runs, due to different work schedule. I'm thinking of putting a dpf cleaner in, to see if it stops the light coming on every few hundred miles, wonder is it safe to use? Thanks

Skoda Octavia mk.2 2.0 tdi Elegance, ENGINE & DPF light on
Hi just wondering, 2017 skoda superb, dpf light has been coming on this past month, every 300 miles or so, goes out after drive in lower gear for 10 minutes. Took it to a mechanic, he said it's doing successful regens and the level is good 12 gram. But this light has never come on before since have car 5 years ago. Wondering if anyone ever tried redex dpf cleaner? I'm tempted to give it a go in case there's a blockage Thanks

Exhaust emissions control system light on.
Would the glow plug light come on as well? My 17 superb has an emsiion control light on, I'll get it checked tomoro, hopefully just a glowplug but there's no glowplug light, just the solid amber engine light

Intermittent Multiple Warnings (Part 1)
Wondering if anyone has seen the abs and traction lights, when on, and accelerating hard, car skids a bit, and a glowplug light comes on and loss of power? Couldn't see any engine faults when fixing the abs problem yesterday
-
Intermittent Multiple Warnings (Part 1)
Hopefully issue solved, changed bearing on rear wheel, ring was broke, car skidded a bit and glowplug light came on, lost power, hopefully to do with abs, because no fault was stored apart from the abs faults. Car running good now so far and no warning lights👍

Intermittent Multiple Warnings (Part 1)
Just got it diagnosed today, threw up a few abs speed sensor faults, one possibly caused by wheel bearing C101D29 c101D07 all to do with right rear sensor And C101AF1, to do with left front abs sensor, magnetic field too low

Intermittent Multiple Warnings (Part 1)
Hi, just wondering also, I have a 2017 superb 2.0, there was a loud scraping sound from discs a few times, went away when braked harder. Now warning lights have appeared on dash, abs, tyre pressure, hill hold, stabilizing control etc, they go away then pop up again. No garages open cause it's a bank holiday here. Wonder is the car safe to drive, and what the issue might be? Maybe abs sensor or needs new discs pads, seeing they were making loud noise prior to warning lights Any advice welcome Thanks

2016 superb style radio volume
Hi, very long delay since last post, I was away, car is still the same no volume...Harman mib2 unit in glovebox, just trying to take the unit out, I can't seem to disconnect the pins from the rear of unit, and can't find any videos online to help...I'm afraid of pulling too hard at the connections in case of breaking one. Need to get unit out and send it away for repair asap I'm hoping

2016 superb style radio volume
I'm trying to get unit out, plugs are awkward to loosen, trying to press latch and pull, but no luck. Does the plastic cover come out along with the plug, or just the wire plug itself? One side is easy to loosen, the dab part, but can't seem to loosen the 4 single connections

Hi all, I'm trying to remove head unit in glovebox now, just received keys, there doesn't seem to be any room at all behind unit to get to wiring, I can barely see them. Is there any way around this, or safe to pull unit out more? Cheers

2016 superb style radio volume
This problem effects my whole unit, radio, CD, SD, sat nav etc, but when volume decides to work, all these work then also. Then once turn car off and restart, usually no volume

2016 superb style radio volume
Not sure if this topic is still open, but I notice when radio etc is working, and I turn volume knob left to zero, mute, it stays off then goes into a mute type no sound mode despite volume icons moving up slightly when turn knob to right. Main dealer quoted 3000 for a new module. Not gonna pay that kind of money. Are there other infotainment units that will fit car? And anyone know what brand model etc? Cheers

Anyone know what the control module is? Is that the part in glovebox? Or the whole unit?
