Thanks and goodbye
Getting a different card doesn't mean having to leave Briskoda! Thanks for the good wishes.

Vcds ECU pin code, how to access
Maybe in barking up the wrong tree but is the code that's required the one which VCDS automatically shows if you have an OEM cable? In other words, a non OEM cable won't show anything!

Columbus Map Update 2022 (MIB1/2 HIGH)
As @Tellmentions above, I seem to think that Columbus units from that year had to be updated with a DL DVD. The contents might not be the same as what’s in the download links too. Does @MartiniBknow anything?

Walk Away or take it
So what are the new car contenders now then? Regarding the solar panels, wouldn't they still have a place if integrated with batteries?

Playing music from external source
Thanks @Schoda206. I’m going to check out the iBroadcast app as one issue I have with SD or USB storage as the car sometimes complains about file limits. This invariably happens when adding more music and would mean not having to have different source storage (SD2/USB2 etc) to resolve the issues.

Playing music from external source
As you have Canton, one of the options of to copy to the internal HD. You should be able to do this from any of the USB sockets.

Connect Services
I have a few times for the part which includes Real Time Traffic Information. Not done it recently due to car usage and Android Auto though. If the longer journeys restart then the sheer convenience of having everything integrated is a boon.

Another Head Unit Replacement Post!
Replacement units from they era were usually by Kenwood. I can't remember what features they had but maybe they are lacking compared to some of the newer units. BTW I think component protection came with later cars.

VCDS options on Superb III
@midlan What year is your car? SWMBO prefers to have the CH/LH option on her profile but I just consider it a waste of xenon power as we live in a decently lit area. If it only did the DRL’s then I may be persuaded to alter mine - the car park location assistance occasionally comes in handy too. 👍

Missing tow hook
All sorted. @ZoltanbPlease use the PM system to send personal details in future. 👍

I've done it for you. 👍

I'll move it but your profile still shows that you have a Mondeo.

You may want to update your car profile and tell us what year your car is so I can move this to the correct place. 👍

DSG service intervals
The 1 hour limit starts from when you initially made the post or are you saying that you've joined and are still having issues? If so then give it another hour to line the cogs up. PM me if there's still an issue afterwards. 👍

Not too sure why you can't do it on a desktop - maybe add what browser you're using or try with a different one first. Post editing is allowed for the first hour unless you subscribe to one of the bargain Freedom options which adds (amongst other things) unlimited editing. 😉

Phone contact picture
There is a dedicated PC app that will check/amend to ensure the photos are also in the correct size format. Less than 500x500 IIRC.

I take it you're using a mobile device?

Android auto volume
Sometimes it just needs a phone reset but that's what I'd try first. Failing that, go for a phone and infotainment reset afterwards. I'm on a late 13 beta at the moment but can't recollect any issues like yours.

BTW, as a freedom subscriber you have an unlimited amount of time to edit your posts. 👍

Shouldn't this be a 2014 model?

Thoughts on a switch to hybrid.
My general thoughts on any hybrid is that they're really only a stop-gap before progressing to full EV. So in effect you're paying a premium for the technology but only getting sub optimal benefits.

It's always nice seeing a car with at least 4 exhaust pipes. 👍

Driving in France
A permanent move will require new front lights as well as the fog lights altering. @J.R. will be able to fully update you. 👍
