FL MY2021 Lane Assist Coding Possible?
Looking here I think yes, if its sel or above (a5 Camera). I'm toying with the idea too...

Transfering Sat Nav data
I suspect people don’t know the answer. I guess it’s head unit dependant, so it may be worth casting your net wider to snare other forums. I’m not sure about the ’16, but the ’20 L&K will allow destinations to be sent via Skoda connect, so it’s quite quick to put addresses in via web browser and watch them appear in the car.

2020 FL Superb rear camera retrofitted
The 57 plate fooled me initially. I'm glad it can be done as I'm unconvinced I'll ever get used to the extra length of superb vs octavia...

pressfit BB what options
I'm a bit late to this party, but wondered what you did in the end? I had a similar dilemma, but ultimately replaced a PF30 with another, primarily because I'd need to buy the threaded conversion kit spanners too, so was not worth it on a mid level Boardman. Encouragingly, (and possibly because of the lashings of grease) the new PF30 is thus far silent.

Newbie Owner - minor issues
Sorry - thread revival. I'm currently chasing down a couple of rattles, one somewhere in the boot area and proving very good at hiding, and 1 that stops when I touch the instrument binnacle surround. Any hints and tips on removing it? Mines the VC cluster (not sure if that makes a difference or not). Cheers.

Virtual cockpit and Google Maps
Odd, my is OK with waze navigating , but not Google maps. Although I've updated android auto since then, so all bets are off...

Virtual cockpit and Google Maps
A quirk I recently found is that if you run waze on the columbus (etc) you can still get the inbuilt maps in the vc. Not ideal, but does allow you to easily scan for speed cameras, junctions etc. If you run Google maps the vc refuses to display any map. As an aside I'm not (yet) a vc convert - after some playing I've left mine on the dual dial display...

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Love that. Chromaflair always reminds me of one of my primeras

280 Tyres
I had asymmetric 2s on the vrs and replaced them with the ps4. Both good, but I'd say the ps4 were better, especially in the dry. Looking back I had the goodyears fitted in 11, so quite an old tyre now. Both better than the p7, but you knew that already.

Second Hand buying red flags - 272 Petrol
Yeah, my son loves it and now refers to the back of the car as the VIP lounge! I guess less handy if you have 2 kids though.

Scuffed Front Passenger Door Handle - Advice?
Has it gone all the way through? I'm constantly amazed what Meguiars 105 / 205 will polish out - if you've got a few areas in need of TLC it's probably worth a punt. Being tight if it's all the way though I'd mostly likely masking it up and having a bash with a spray can and then use the 105 to try and blend it out - if it looks naff, the it's not a massive outlay. Edit - on closer inspection it has gone though. If you have my skill levels UndertheRadar has the right answer (of if you're like my wife, just ignore it)

ECE 2020/2021 (Valid since CW 25 2020)
If the columbus has WiFi you could try connecting to your home network (if in range) and let it pull the relevant files directly. Much to my surprise this worked first time for me (although I just did the UK)

Find me a Superb...
Like you I moved from octavia to superb and unfortunately I think it's a case of biding your time. It took me quite a while to find a petrol estate with a tow bar - in the end I set up a search in autotrader and one day a local one pinged up. In common with others my observation was that prices are firm - I only managed to knock £100 off a £26k car!
