  1. Thanks for the reply mate! I believe it might be something like this, as the tyres are R18 Nexen and are 5-6 years old, as far as I understood from this guy. My mechanic will hoist it, as @naster mentioned, and will review it. We can also put some new tyres to see if it's going to be gone. Additionally, currently the Superb 2016year is with R18 rims I plan to go to R17 or R16 rims, depending on the manufacturer recommendation, as I value comfort over looks.
  2. After discussion and in depth, the sound- when with summer tires is a lot less, so should be tires, right?
  3. Hello folks, an update! I went to see the car last night, travelled 250km in a direction. The car is amazing, it has the "smaller" navigation, that is on 16 models, where it has for example just 3 ambient light options. The car doesn't have 'stove', but it has front window heating, no ventillation on seats and no digital cockpit. Everything was great, car is smooth and rides very well, BUT! my rear passengers said there's a very loud/big noise coming from the back, like plastic frictioning against metal or something like that, that was a constant noise. Might be due to tyres, as the owner said with the summer tyres this noise isn't that much. This will be looked at a service before we proceed further. Any thoughts?
  4. Hey! It's not posted on ad, I put a post in a Bulgarian Skoda Group, and somebody messaged me that he thought to purchase SUV type of Skoda, because of the area they live, and want to sell their Superb. It was an idea and we discussed how it was maintained when it was with him and before, and he said "The first owner in Germany was buying even his tyres from Skoda" that type of a person. So it was really good. There's no remap or anything AFAIK but it's not bad to ask and check.
  5. Incredible machine. I don’t have the full history at the moment for the 250k km car, but I’ll be sure to check it out as soon as the car is here.
  6. Hello fellow Skoda enthusiasts, I am eyeing a Skoda Superb Estate 2016 L&K, it's great - only maintained in Skoda, with proper intervals (DSG oil changes ofcourse as well) and everything. The only worriesome news about the car is that it has 250,000 kms. It has DSG 6 and is 2 TDI 190 p.s. with Matrix headlights. No ventillation in the seats and no digital odometer only, rest of the extras are available. After speaking with the person that sells it, he said that he just wants to get a SUV, so that's why he sells the car, he also sounds like a Skoda enthusiast as he is known in the Skoda groups in Bulgaria as being one of the pioneers there. He owned the car for 3 years, where in this 3 years, it has been driven for 70 kms on the highway and a bit in the city by his wife to get the kids, as he works a job that requires him to travel a lot and has a company car for that. Before those 3 years, he bought it as an import from Germany, where he did all the checks /VIN/in-depth Inspection in official Skoda service and the car had full record in Skoda with proper changes of oils and everything. He changed DCC suspension with new one, as on 230km he noticed an issue, changed the front glass with original one because of sensors and yeah. I've been going around in the wbsites in Bulgaria and most of them are around 180-190K. Is 250k too much and should I be worried for gearbox/engine issues or am I overthinking this?
