Sat Nav Favourites
Now 2 months into my IV estate ownership and I have grsped most of the driving gadgets. Now into the Sat Nav,I see that double tapping a place on the screen marks it as a Favourite but does anyone know how to edit or delete favourites? My Auto Hold remains on and I am not getting the amber Driving assist lights that seem to feature on this forum. Counting myself as a happy owner.

No electric drive
In my first few weeks I had 2 occasions of No Electric Drive. Consult Workshop. Seems I was forcing it to charge to 100% when the car was default set to 80%. Did this by plugging it in twice. Now I do a single charge from my house charge box to 80% and have had no problems. If yours is no ICE drive either though sounds more serious.

Software failure not so Superb
I have the L&K PHEV estate and the 12 v battery is behind a cover in the boot on the left side.

Saving battery charge
Thank you Mykos

Saving battery charge
Is it possible to save some charge by running on fuel only until later in the journey?

No more auto hold on MK4?
Agreed. I had a Cupra on loan which had Autohold and I complained to dealer it was a feature I would expect on the upmarket Superb L&K. We went through the menus together and found it.

I’m away from my car for a couple of weeks but as I remember it was Vehicle-Vehicle-Settings-Brakes on the main screen.

Autohold is on the mk4 but not enabled by default. It can be set by the user.

New Superb Mk4 estate owner
Ordered my Mk4 L&K on 30/08/24, it was built on 14/11/24 and collected on 22/12/24. No mention of problems with the virtual pedal and mine has it working perfectly.

Trip counter?
You can use the From Start as a trip counter. Once selected on the right rotary press and hold that right rotary and the From Start will all reset to zero. No idea how the From Refuelling knows when to reset. Is there a sensor on the fuel flap or does it know when the car gets heavier.

Virtual Cockpit
Thanks. Swiped sideways on the vehicle page and found a 2nd page with Traffication on it. Only option not available was Driving Wrong Way. Good tip.

Superb Mk4
The Mk4 with matrix lights has a headlight setting in the main screen for Left Hand Driving or Right Hand Driving. Alters the light pattern for Continental driving.

How do you activate speed camera alerts?

Virtual Cockpit
Great, does that mean you have the map view in Virtual dashboard or just the main screen.

Is a MY2020 Mk iV actually a Mk3 or is it a Mk iV?
Not s great problem and we have our share of speed humps and speed pads where we live. Ours is the PHEV version so maybe the thumping great battery stabilises things a bit.

Have had no software issues, just over 600 miles in, I believe the issues were before the big system update in September 2024. Cars built after that no troubles.

Mine does exactly that. Under ACC drives at 30 in a 30 limit, when it passes a 40 limit sign the speed goes tip to 40, it recognises a National speed limit sign and drives at the appropriate speed, ie 70 on dual carriageways and 60 on other roads.

New to me Superb IV: central locking set up?
Have to agree with you there, my wife has the same problem after surgery, the seat belt pulls on the scar. We tried fitting the seat belt extenders we retained from our Citroën but the extender buckle will not clip into the Skoda socket.

Is a MY2020 Mk iV actually a Mk3 or is it a Mk iV?
Like you I switched allegiances. After driving Citroëns since 1990 I ordered a Superb estate IV iV L&K in August and collected it 22 December. Best Christmas present ever. I love it. Better quality than the C5X hybrid I had before and the more I learn about the Skoda the more I love it. Was persuaded to change by the online road tests I read on the Superb estate, As a firm believer in " you get what you pay for" I chose the L&K with HUD and retractable towbar. What a machine. How you enjoy yours just as much.

Hooks
You may need to flip the luggage cover up to see the hammock bar clearly. Mind your fingernails when you struggle with those clips.

New to me Superb IV: central locking set up?
Quite happy with the auto door locking but the auto seat belt tensioner still catches me out. I live in a short road to a T junction and just as I lean forward to get road vision the seat belt pulls me back.

Hooks
In your boot you have a full width hammock for carrying light items. These clips connect onto the rearmost bar of this hammock, with difficulty, to give you two more hooks in the rear boot space. Once in place though you cannot roll up the hammock to store tidily . I have mine in the side storage pocket after clipping them on and off a few times. A versatile idea but not too successful.

Have you enabled the AUTOHOLD ? This most useful function is hidden in the VEHICLE sub menu and holds the parking brake when you stop. An essential in my book but not enaled by default.
