And if you don't have maxidot its tuff luck :S the S model doesn't have it.

When you used the DRL`s did the front and rear lights come on or only the front?

The last sentence on that letter is like they are shouting at you!!!

They dont look clear to me the letters are to small look at the other signs compared to the new signs they put up.

Regarding the Auto lights, i have a 2009 1.9PD TDi Superb S, when i use the Auto lights the front and rear lights come on during the day i thought just the front lights would only come on then if it gets dark or go through a tunnel then the rear lights would also come on but front and rear seem to be constantly on. Oh and by the way great write up about your new car!

I was thinking of changing my 1.9PD Superb to a 1.6CR Superb next year to try and save money on fuel but after reading peoples replys on this thread im having my doubts. :S

Called Skoda UK today the 1.6CR will be on www.skoda.uk by the end of the week.

Took the car back to Henrys was in for a few hours they told me they checked all the bulbs in the car and they found 2 faulty bulbs, they were both fluctuating in wattage so they replaced them both and charged me £14 On Sunday the bulb warning light came on again checked all the bulbs all were found to be working. Today i called Skoda UK and said to them Henrys replaced 2 bulbs and charged me £14 but the light is still coming on and asked the girl should this not be under warranty? She didnt know and told me to contact my dealer again. it sounds like a software problem more than anything, either a bulb works or it doesn't.

Car booked in for next week to try and resolve problem again. Ive checked all the bulbs ive replaced and they all appear to be ok .

For some time now the bulb failure light has been coming on and off. If i switch the engine off and remove the key it will sometimes reset the warning light but sometimes it wont. Its been to the dealer for a software update, that worked for a while. I've checked the bulbs ive replaced and there all secure so no loose connections. Went back to the they said its not showing a fault on their machine. Anyone any ideas? :S

Im due to change my front tyres shortly on my 1.9td S Can someone explain why Skoda fit Extra Load Tyres to the superb2 and why are they V rated. Ive done around 17,000miles and the car is used as a taxi and so far (touch wood) i havnt had a puncture yet and the state of the roads in Glasgow must be some of the worst, is this because of the tyres or is it just luck!

The reason for the 10,000 servicing is, both cars are used as taxis and since the majority of the work is done in the city with a lot of stop start and engine idiling. The engine will also use more oil.

Is that 5w30 or 5w40?

Are both your cars set by the dealer for Variable Servicing (typically 18,000-20,000 mile intervals as indicated by the MFD), as if not, I believe you can use a cheaper semi-synthetic oil where servicing/oil changes are necessary at fixed 10,000 mile intervals. Both are serviced at 10,000 mile intervals

What kind of oil should i be using to top up my 1.9Tdi S Superb mkII and 1.9Tdi Octavia A4 I have been told by diffrent people i should only use Fully synthetic and others say its safe to use semi synthetic, does it have to have the VW code on the oil. Both cars are serviced by a Skoda dealer at 10,000 intervals and both used as taxis.
