Wish i hadn't bought my MK4 Octavia and kept my karoq
They're terrible things to say. Of course it's the cars problem if there are warning lights popping up all over the place and the rear suspension is clunking and clanking like a galley ship, with only 17K on the clock I'd be ****ed off too. Hopefully he'll get sorted... Hopefully...

Seriously? I didn't think presentation of your car was a requirement to ask a question on this site. I didn't "present" any of my Skoda's since joining briskoda... Small wonder these types of forums are dying off....

Which box would my iV have?

Software update
I got mine serviced about 3 weeks ago and the only mention of a recall was to get an Aircon pipe replaced which was done last Monday. I was getting those endless updates since getting it serviced and I kept installing them when sitting in the car, they seemed to have finally stopped.

Tyres annoyance....
The argenta was the 132 I think. A boss of mine had a diesel Mirafiori, a rough beast but had a fair bit of poke for the time. The 130 was a luxurious machine too. I think we've drifted.... Away from tyres😏

Tyres annoyance....
They were a great car. I drove several Fiat's over the years and always found their dealers very customer focused and parts were very cheap. Such a shame they've all but disappeared.

Many thanks for that I'll certainly consider them when changing.

Tyres annoyance....
Well I couldn't have been more wrong... Mine are 235/45 18's Goodyear asymmetric 5 and they're as noisy as hell I can't wait to be rid of them. Any suggestions?

Are they much quieter? I have 235/35's on my car and they're very noisy.

VCDS options on Superb III
That was my first time using the apps I normally only used the long coding, I'm strictly a colour by numbers long coder, somebody else finds it and I just follow blindly ☺️

VCDS options on Superb III
Thanks for replying I had never used the apps before but I found a very good guide on the old faithful YouTube, it worked a treat, many thanks. There are other ones there that I might try out, auto lock when you walk away looks very handy.

Maintaining battery charge
That Ford system has been around since the early 2000 it can use peak voltages of 18V so can easily fry another cars components if used to jump start another car. The days of the Lucas 17ACR are long gone.

Hybrid issues
My Superb is the same although the engine does warm up very quickly. In cold weather I never select hybrid mode until I'm on the open road.

Positive effects of DSG Service
Ignition on, foot on the throttle for 20 seconds ignition off. I didn't notice anything at first until I went to work the next day where I noticed it was in much higher gears than usual in certain parts of the quite short journey.

Positive effects of DSG Service
I reset mine yesterday on the iV, I've definitely noticed a difference, it changes up much more quickly.
