Hi all. Coming from a 2010 Superb 2.0 TDI elegance estate and also having recently had a Octavia VRS 2010, now a Nissan leaf for most of local stuff. Looking for a biggish boot and petrol for longer journeys. looking to spend <£18k on an Octavia and not sure about Mk3 v 4 any advice now the mK4 has been around for 2 year? Or avoid and get a MK3? Both estates really. thanks

Rear wiper motor replacement - difficult?
badgerman posted a topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
All my 2010 estate rear wiper is stuck and not working. It did go very fast and then stopped. looking at getting this and trying fit myself just wondered if a difficult job or if specialist tools are needed?https://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/ridex-15210402.html Thanks -
I have a a 2010 Superb 2.0 TDI DSG elegance estate. 2 smaller kids and wanting to spend about £16K looking at petrol DSG 1.4/1.5 TSI and can see a few 67/2017 SE L superb similar money for 19/2019 SE L Octavia estates. I prefer the luxury of the superb fully loaded and have also had a 2010 VRS but not sure I need the size of the superb. Any advice on similar situations for you guys if worth getting more “exec car “ and gadgets versus newer and less miles and smaller? thanks for any feedback.

Thule roof rack feet options
badgerman replied to badgerman's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Thanks and these fit fine? Do you know what the bar code is? Thanks -
I was looking for a second hand Thule or equivalent roof rack for 2 bikes. I can see the new models that fit. Does anyone know what older second hand Thule feet fit an estate (2010). Thanks

Hi. Could you share which one you used and any issues or additional parts needed? This replaced a Columbus? Thanks -
Superb Turbo replacement options
badgerman replied to badgerman's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
No! Not done it yet! thanks for your other replies. Will ask the garage. -
My Superb CR170 went into limp mode twice so took it to local garage who said turbo and actuator failed. Said was £900+VAT for OEM new plus ~£250 to fit. Are there cheaper options that are OK? It’s 130k miles and 8 years old. Worried it’s a write off.

Roof bike rack options fit estate?
badgerman replied to badgerman's topic in Skoda Superb Mk II (2008-2015)
Thanks all for the advice. No tow bar and no plans to install one. There seems to be a lot of specific models of Thule bars. Will have a look. -
Hi All. What do you guys use as roof bike racks for your estate/combo with rails? Mainly it’s for a single bike, perhaps 2. Any recommendations appreciated. Thanks

Am in identical situation (including fat hands!). Might order it and ask my local garage to fit it. Worth a try for £30 -

I am wondering the same as have the same Delfie model. How do you test if this is the issue? -
Hi All. My local garage says my air con pump has gone on my 2010 oct VRS TDI DSG. I was looking for a second hand one on eBay, but wanted to check the product code. Any ideas? Thanks
