  1. Thanks. I had spent some time trying to find something similar but had no luck until after I wrote this. Funny my dealer hasn't heard of it!!
  2. Make sure the rubber gets moved as thats what is causing the issue
  3. I too have had this happen. I noticed it on another superb on the road too. I found that the rubber gasket around the top of the door has moved up & along about 6mm & is fowling the rear gasket which in turns causes the chrome trim to get pulled off the rear door at the B pillar. Has only happened on one side but interestingly it is the side that gets the sun when parked on our drive.
  4. Hi, We have been enjoying our Mk 3 superb since 29th March & put almost 9K miles on it. I noticed a few weeks ago the driver door feeling a bit stiff on opening to get out. I thought nothing of it to start with. I then realised that something wasn't right when it got worse I checked the shut lines & saw all was OK, initially thinking the hinges might have dropped. I further investigated & realised that the rubber gasket that holds the chrome trim has moved backwards & has been rubbing on the rear door rubber. I had noticed that the chrome strip had also moved & was rubbing more than the rubber. The gaps next to the wing mirror were the tell tale when compared to the passenger side. I managed to push the chrome strip back a bit & tried to do the same with the rubber but only lasted for a couple of days. We took the car to our local dealer & they said they had not come across the problem before. I had since I saw another Superb 3 with the chrome trim of the OSR door sticking out. This makes sense as our chrome trim has also now been bent & shall need replacing when it goes in for the warranty repair of the rubber gasket. The dealer has stuck gaffer tape over the rear rubber chrome to stop them from further damage but it isnt working that great as I have already had to replace it & push the rubber back twice. Wondering if anyone else has got the same issue. I shall try & get some pictures to show the issue. Thanks
  5. Just a quick update, Received our L&K 4 x 4 estate yesterday delivered from Skoda dealer & bought through NCD. Arrived late afternoon thus causing concern as wed been told morning. Everything as ordered. Took it out last night & very happy indeed. If we had'nt got the discounted price with NCD we wouldn't have been able to have the L & K which came with all the bits we wished for & a lot more. We shall certainly be using them again. :clap:
  6. Ordered from Nick at NCD back on 17th November & just been told today that we shall be receiving our delivery on the 29th of March. Delays were due to the wheels & beige interior. Looking forward to it. L&K 150 4 x 4 manual. estate. NCD been very helpful, & patient. Couldn't recomend them enough. Discount probably equates to buying a lower down model from a dealer or saving on the instant depreciation of driving off the fourcourt
  7. Amazing. Just got a call from Nick at NCD to advise our car has just arrived at the dealers this morning & was asking me a couple of dates as to when we would like to receive our car.
  8. We paid our deposit with credit card & checked it out with our card supplier. They advised that they would cover the whole amount of the car if we paid the deposit & the sale was a con. Meaning it was a no brainer to grab the discounted price as their is no risk to finances.
  9. We ordered our Superb 4 x 4 L & K 150 manual in Magnetic brown last November & are due to take delivery by the end of this month ( March) Delays due to the wheels & leather apparently. Made order with Nick at NCD after having a good look around & trying several Skoda dealers for costs. In theory were paying for the car without the instant depreciation of leaving the forecourt. Bonus. Also worked out the same as buying the SE at a dealer but getting the L&K for the same money :p Shall keep forum up dated. Apparently NCD have 20 L&K's sitting at docks ready for delivery to dealer network for distribution there after. 4 months wait is almost over. Just hope delivery & transfer all goes as smoothly as the DCC was in the test car we tried.
  10. Only thing is still waiting to be confirmed its arrival in uk ready for mid march delivery. Ever hopeful. Patience is a virtue & a Superb is worth the wait. Have seen our local dealers cars on the road but as others have said, haven't seen any others yet. Probably all on the same ferry that will probably have a engine failure & get stranded at sea for another 2 months. !!!!!!!!
  11. I asked my dealer when we were told about the discontinue of the Rosso Brunello & were advised that our order would now be the end of January, We then asked that it would be a 16 plate & were told that would not be a problem. They have even held our trade in value because of the delays. Excellent service. So far.
  12. Hope ours has arrived too as it were BW5 as well. Would be nice. Looking at getting a set of winter wheels with alloys too think ill get 17 x 7.5 with 225 x 55, Dunlop winter sport 5.
  13. Found these Magnetic brown Superb Pics :p https://travelblogger.ch/2015/11/16/skoda-superb-tegernsee/
