Superb 4x4 2.0TDI drivetrain movement
Yes that one will be pressed in, not looked into that one in too much detail (my car was brand new when I fitted the insert, so nothing 'wrong' with it other than not being stiff enough) I would imagine the gearbox side will wear much quicker due to being smaller and getting warmer so you may get away with just doing the dogbone? You really need to remove the undertray and use a pry bar to see where the play is all coming from.

Yes, as with any rubber mount they deteriorate over time, probably easier to just replace the whole dogbone c/w new bush. This is on a MKII but the principle is the same 3:24 shows you the full dogbone mount, the left side bolts to the gearbox and the right goes to the cross member

Could be the (dogbone) gearbox mount. Had similar knock when mine was remapped, cured by fitting an 034 Motorsport insert into the rubber mount. (Mine was a type 2)

Could anybody tell me what this message means when i turn vehicle off please?
Welcome 'SAFELOCK' is a reminder that when you lock the car it will be deadlocked... meaning it cannot be opened from the inside, so if you are going to lock it with a person inside always press the lock button TWICE this turns OFF the deadlock function, The mode change is probably done through the infotainment screen, I'm sure an Enyaq owner will be along soon enough to tell you how.

Locked out !
Never unlock the car and then place the keys in the boot if a door hasn't been opened, as once the hatch closes it will automatically lock. The car is designed to auto - lock after 30 seconds if a door hasn't been opened, ideal incase you accidentally unlock the car (very easy to do with the later key fobs as the buttons are flush) whilst the keys are in a pocket or moved.

Could anyone tell me why this keeps flashing now and then on rough roads pot holes etc
I missed that one. Yes unlock the rear seat backs and give them a firm slam closed.

Top the washer bottle up, it’s getting low so will keep tripping the low level sensor

Swapping front & rear wheels over issues?
There are no sensors in the wheels, they use the ABS sensors. Find someone who knows what they are doing / talking about

+1 The apps can (and do frequently) screw the coding right up. If you are not comfortable in doing long coding / adapting coding yourself then find someone experienced locally who can do it.

Air Con Gas Type
There will be a sticker (probably on the slam panel) saying which one it uses.

Help required in calculating cost of battery fill up.
Correct, however IMO you must be mad to use a (paid for) public charging on a hybrid. charge it up at home only.

Fuel econnemy and DPF regeneration 2.0TDI 190HP
What’s you average journey length in miles? I used to get low 50’s on a 40 mile commute. It sound like you are either doing lots of short journeys or the DPF regen is being interrupted? Mine would regen every few thousand miles.

The airbag light would be on if you remove an airbag.

You will need a later upgraded controller for 30 colours. Alternatively you can change your 3 colours with VCDS etc.

Grateful for your insight - potential family/urban runabout
We owned a 40 kWh MK2 Leaf Tekna for just under 3 years. Real world range driving normally (rather than @ 50 / 60 mph to get a few extra miles) is just over 100 miles in the winter, we used the 1% of battery to 1 mile and it was pretty accurate. They are a decent car and if 100 miles will be enough then the Chademo network won’t be an issue, depending on the daily commute you may even get away with the supplied ‘granny charger’.

I wish! I know VCDS is good but knocking 40 years off your age maybe a step too far 😜😂

Rear Left Door Ambient Lighting Not Working
Had similar on mine after a couple of months, went in to be done under warranty and apparently it hadn’t been plugged in properly when it was built. Failing that pull the rubber grommet off between the door and B pillar and check all the cables are still in tact.

Shock absorber replaced
Try changing the ‘Individual’ settings for the suspension and see if it changes the softness.

Are they DCC struts?

Skoda Superb III - Powered Tailgate Controller Location
Personally I would scan the car first as it maybe just the switch? unless it opens by remote or the boot button every time?
