Hi Rick, sorry for the delay. Wanted to drive the car for at least a week before I gave you an answer. It has been snowing quite a lot here in our Town so most of the journeys have be slow driving. First time with non-studded tyres for a very long time. What a difference in noise comparison. Now as to whether the ride is good or not. I like it. I would like to take a longer journey to test them out but I'm very happy so far. Not harsh and not too soft. My trims have completely different types of tyres on them so the comparison is not going to be fair. I am with both.

Changed to winter tyres today.

I've done the June update and all my personal addresses etc. are still in place

The invisible car :-)

Thanks for sharing your photos

I don´t think it is possible to regulate. So far it is the only thing that I don´t agree with the S3. The designers made a mistake here.

Didn´t get them on mine.

Yes, I should have mentioned that D402. I also wondered why I couldn´t proceed until I realised that the SD card was locked.

Yes, you will find my tread on this called "The Torax" back in April

I have Amundsen in my L&K and the ECE was 2016 at delivery. On the Swedish site the only update available up until the end of May was 2016. The site now shows 2016/2017 so I decided to update. The 2016 files were from 2015-08-17. Using Windows 10 the new file was downloaded using a downloader program supplied by Skoda on their site. I was asked where I wanted to download the zipped file and thereafter where I wanted to unzip the downloaded file. Very simple and without any hassle. All over within 10-15 minutes. Once done I placed the SD card in the car and there was no need for any uploading of the new files to the unit. As soon as the car started the new maps where immediately there to be used. Previous journeys that I had saved were also available and the unit shows that the maps are now ECE 2016/2017.

No mix ups

You found the word I was looking for. Although we have not heard any noise from the rear suspension we had our car fixed on Tuesday and driving after that has been a different experience. I thought the feel and drive of the car was great before but so far now I think it is excellent. It feels like it is "floating".

Sorry, I thought I had mentioned the problem in an earlier post but it seams like that post didn´t get uploaded. I had even included some links. From what I have followed here on Briskoda the washer "problem" can be summarised in lack of power (I´m no expert on what has been described by some here though). Let me try to describe what I have picked up: some are getting only one or two jet sprays per nozzle others three from one and one or two from the other. Others are expecting a fan like spread but are not getting it. Again, I don´t know if I have a problem or not as I get a fan like spray and it looks like three jets from both nozzles. The only thing I can really comment on is the spray is not as forceful as what I had on the S2. The service team at Möller Bil don´t seem to think it is a problem at all. To be honest though as I mentioned earlier they only went out and tested on one other car and got the same results as produced by my washers. If I can find the threads here on Briskoda again I will link to them.

Left the car in at a little after 7 this morning and was given a call at 2.45 saying that it was ready. Spoke to the salesman before I left the showroom and he mentioned that they had only recently received information from Skoda about this problem and the solution. The service department had already mentioned to me what they had done and this was also confirmed by the salesman. Exactly what "difference" has mentioned in an earlier post. I once again remarked that I had not heard this noise nor "shakes or rattles" and was very happy with our car. The salesman mentioned that he wanted to keep us a very happy customer and therefore told their service team to contact me as one of the first. He mentioned that they only had a handful of customers that have complained about this. According to him it only shows up on a few cars. My impression is this is not a problem that Skoda is going to actively go out and declare as a problem that has to be solved rather if the customer complains it is up to the dealer to solve this. Concerning the washers there was no solution. All they had done was compare it with another car and that was similar. Did get a kind of partial acknowledgment that compared to our S2 there was a difference. Was told that they will follow this up when I have the car in for its first service or if Skoda should send out a bulletin about this. On the whole I am still very impressed with the service given by our dealer Möller Bil and would still continue to recommend them. And, as far as the car is concerned, it is still Superb. Edited: I should also mention that I had planed to by some Skoda cleaning products when I went to collect our car. When I asked to pay I was told "this is on us" - £25 :-)
