On a 2014 the DRL bulb is an H15 that also includes the main beam filament. Replacing the bulb will almost certainly alter the main beam alignment, possibly in a way that cannot be corrected and hence cause glare to oncoming drivers. Plus finding an H15 bulb that is CE marked, and hence legal for use on the road, will be "difficult" - oh and also the headlamp itself is not type approved for any bulb type other than Halogen...

If the side mirrors dim then that suggests the sensors in the interior mirror are OK since the interior mirror is the master. Which kinda says to me that the actual LCD dimming part of the interior mirror has failed - unless sombody knows otherwise?

If you need it once and buying it is cheaper than hiring it, or if the hire shops only have dodgy stuff, then buy it!

I had the same problem when I first got my L&K, for me it was simply finger trouble - the interior mirror dimming was turned off! Check the green light on the mirror, if that's off it won't dim and simply pressing the switch on the mirror turned it on.

A fault code scan will tell if there are any problems with the air mixing and distribution flaps not moving correctly, much better than trying to guess.

Updated maps can help to get the TSR display more accurate since when it can't read a speed limit sign it defaults to using map data - but then if the map data is wrong... I've noticed it seems to default to 20 (incorrectly) on several roads near me that are actually 30, that's even with the newest Amundsen MIB2 maps.

Search for the adaptation channel by name, newer versions with UDS protocol no longer use simple channel numbers.

Tried this guide on here?

I had exactly the same issue when my previous car came with Pirellis - 9K miles life only and poor to scary wet (lack of) grip.

Someone will be searching for a coding/adaptation hack to make it default to off!

Yes it's USB only but there are several dongles available that plug in to the USB and allow wireless CarPlay. I use this one CPlay2Air

Probably best asking in the relevant Superb forum, as the body design is completely different to an Octavia 4!

Definitely not correct, I have an iPhone 12 Pro which works perfectly with CarPlay.

Adaptive lights need to know the vehicle level, so I think finding and fixing the problem with the level sensor is the first step.

Correct, and MUST be done by someone with the correct kit to avoid the refrigerant escaping into the atmosphere.

2015 builds can have MIB1 or MIB2 depending on build date, and looking at your part number I'm pretty sure you have a MIB1 Amundsen - like my previous 2015 Elegance. Which means you cannot enable SmartLink as you need MIB2 hardware for SmartLink.

So you've never driven in wet weather when the windows mist up? AC is a lot more than just cooling, it also dehumidifies the air and hence is useful 365 days of the year. The other issue with not driving the AC compressor is that the lubricant in the AC liquid won't be effective on the compressor bearings, so you could end up with a seized AC compressor - which isn't cheap to replace.

Looks like whoever had the cambelts changed made the classic mistake on an EA211 engine of thinking that changing the cambelt and water pump at the same time was required - on the EA211 they're on opposite ends of the engine so in reality there's no need to change them together. I had to "remind" the Skoda dealer in Barnstaple this when I had a 2015 1.4TSI Elegance estate.

What engines do they have?

That seems to be true for a large number of company PHEVs Thousands of UK hybrids may have never been plugged in

Several things to be aware of : 1) With a relay system you will almost certainly get a bulb failure warnign as the relay coil will not have the same resistance as a Halogen bulb. 2) 100W bulbs will not be CE marked or certified for road use - so using them on the road is not legal. Selling them is legal but using them on the road is not. 3) The heat from 100W bulbs compared to 55W bulbs will probably cause damage to the plastic headlamp housing. 4) The LED bulbs will not produce the same beam pattern as the light emitting parts will be in a different place to the Halogen bulbs, causing an uncontrolled beam pattern which is likely to cause glare to oncoming drivers. The only legal and viable option is to replace the 55W bulbs with brighter versions that are still 55W - Pjilps, Osram, etc. sell these.

FYI there's a geothermal power station in the centre of Southampton, opposite the John Lewis end of the West Quay shopping centre.

Car manufacturers moved away from hydraulic power steering many years ago as electric power steering uses less energy and hence improves emissions figures.

A 66 plate is an Octavia 3, you'll be better off posting in the Octavia 3 forum.

White Renault 6 (3 speed gearbox with the gear lever in the centre of the dash and the gearbox in front of the engine) - only had it 2 months before it ended up upside down in a ditch with me hanging from the seatbelt!
