As the title suggests i noticed the plastic above the rubber seal so whilst tucking it back in noticed rust at the bottom of the seal. Has anyone this problem? I bought the car 5 months ago as an approved used skoda from Capital Skoda in Newport, dont suppose this would be any kind of warranty fix?

Hi all, been a while since i have been on here but my engine management light intermittently comes on and carrying out a diagnostics scan shows the following fault codes / descriptions. Any help with likely solutions and hopefully easy fixes would be appreciated! P2452 - Diesel particulate filter pressure sensor "A" Circuit. P1485 - Secondary air injecting valve 2 (N320) interruption. I am scanning it with a generic wifi 'thingy' plugged in with Carista software on my iphone. I can clear the faults which turns off the light but it usually returns within a couple of days. The car is a 60 plate Superb tdi 140 with 100k miles on the clock. Ideas and help would be appreciated, thanks.

Bough my used 2010 superb 2 months ago, had it 2 weeks when noticed odd sound. A new dmf, clutch and a reconditioned gearbox housing (clutch breaking up damaged it) later cost the garage I bought it off £1750!!! Just to cheer you up! -

My previous FL Octavia VRS had decent non HID lights, but on the Superb these appear aligned ok but are just very poor. I contemplated some Osram Nightbreakers but for a slightly bigger investment that may last longer I fancy the increased light of HIDs. -
Only had the car for a few weeks but already fed up with driving round by candle light. Quite fancy some 4300k hids. I definatley dont want to enter into the age old debate on whether or not to install them or not. Basically I am looking for a friendly fellow member either in the West Oxfordshire area or North Swindon / Highworth area to help me install them plus negate any potential problems by using VCDS. I have the technical abillity of a 2 fingered monkey and would not know where to start. There is a garage relatively local to me that charge £130 for the conversion but if the kits most people buy off ebay are only £30 -60 then i would rather do this. Do i buy canbus 'friendly' or not? Your help really would be appreciated and shown with a few beers or a donation to the charity of your choice ;-)

Think I will give it a good metal brush and give it a coat of hammerite. The hose clips in various places should be easy to change. I thought maybe the car had been through deep water for there to be that much rust under the bonnet.
-
Should I be concerned that hose clips and the like under the bonnet appear with quite a bit of surface rust on? Also a cylinder that I don't know what it is has a lot of rust on the top. My former Octy Vrs has nothing like this.

White smoke and loss of power

Had a similar sounding problem with my old fabia vrs tdi, was a pipe from or to the turbo that had popped off. Check all plastic/rubber piping and if that's the problem re-secure and strengthen with zip ties if your worried about it coming off again. I might be stating the obvious but I thought my car was trashed till I noticed the disconnected pipe!- 2 replies
