I may get off my white Irish arse and put the flaps on my superb, I only have them a year.... The 7mm drill is in the car, it's definitely worse I'm getting 😏

Or just close the bonnet....

Does look a bit messy alright, it's just we aren't used to seeing naked engines anymore.

Ahhh will you stop being so dramatic, Skoda themselves recommend throwing it in the bin and being a petrol engine it's effectiveness at reducing noise from an already quiet engine is minimal.

Exactly, everything has to be a "thing" nowadays. Lob it in the bin and forget about it. You can always say the engine identifies as being covered....

It's very handy I really like it.

Do you have tsr? If you do it will work. I activated it easily using obd11.

Who paid for the alternator?

Can you jump start it from another car to try and get it home? If you get it running put a voltmeter across the battery and see what voltage the alternator is producing. The battery might be beyond saving but an overnight charge off the car with a smart charger might revive it.

Sorry guys but those diamond mats look hideous, they remind me of something you'd see in a tacky stretch limo, I'll stick with my superskoda mats.

No, by image he means take a photo of the battery you have now making sure the info sticker is readable.

There seems to be no rhyme or reason to when it decides to do a regen, mine regularly would start doing one just as I came to the end of long journey 😡, very annoying indeed...

Get it scanned and see are there any faults relating to implausible throttle pedal signal.

Exactly, especially with direct injection as a lot less heat contacts the cylinder walls. Older indirect injection engines produced plenty of heat, MPG suffered unfortunately.

Spend thousands on a car and get cheap over a 25 pound umbrella.... The mind boggles 😵‍💫 My 21 car had none and no removable light in the boot either I just ordered them from a dealer.

https://tiresize.com/comparison/ This site is perfect for comparing different tyre sizes.

Mine has DCC and road noise is the same on every setting.

Sounds like it's doing a regen to me. Have you had the soot levels checked?

I have your size wheels and tyres on my car and the road noise is terrible compared to my 2019 superb that had 16" wheels. You could try using one of those tyre comparison sites, they give great info.

Is it losing coolant? What happens if you keep driving will it correct itself? Sounds to me like the thermostat isn't opening properly after being parked overnight. Next time it happens check to see if there's hot water going through the top hose to the radiator.

I haven't tbh, the door mirror knob is set to heat and they demist along with the rear window using the app. I'm not using it as an EV until this cold spell goes as battery life is dreadful and electricity is getting very expensive.

I think he means it might not fit his car, the estate. It won't, he has a Superb estate, the car you linked to is an Octavia.

It works perfectly using the buttons. If I move it when cleaning it etc I have to move it back manually it doesn't do anything automatically.

What is supposed to happen? My chair never moved since I bought the car.

I spoke too soon, I changed my nickname on the VW site but it never changed on the Columbus...
