  1. There r 3 modules in total on each headlight - 1x power ballast (at the back) and 2x Light Control Modules (underneath). Pic of the two modules underneath....
  2. Ur not supposed to take anything out of the mib2 folder. Just copy, once extracted, all the folders as is, including the mib1 folder plus the other files. The root folder is meant to have 2 folders (mib1 and mib2) and 1 file (metainfo2.txt). If anything is missing from the extract, the checksum will b incorrect and the update will never b successful.
  3. MY17 Superb here - as already mentioned above, heating only available for the rear seats. only front seats get heating and cooling.
  4. Definitely can swap around the ballasts to see if it's the issue or not. The ballast is accessible from the top, via the engine bay. It sits on the back of the headlight. Silver looking metal square thingy. If the problem moves to the other side, then u know the ballast is the issue and it can b replaced.
  5. Those r facelift mk3 Superb headlights. Doesn't look LED nor Matrix LED.
  6. Broken D3S xenon bulb holder!! The last few months I started to notice the beam of the right side headlight was looking a bit off, not as bright and a faint vertical line right in the middle where there wasn't much illumination. Initial thoughts were a failing bulb, which I only replaced approx. 2 yrs ago with LED ones, or the bulb was out of its holder/socket. Turns out it was the bulb holder that was broken!! It normally holds the D3S firmly in the socket with a twist to lock it in. Mine was sitting loose, hence the bulb was not in its correct position, resulting in poor light output. Somehow the bottom hinge had broken. Was not fixable, hence a replacement holder was ordered. Part No. 9FH 161 097-016 All fixed now. The right side beam is now as it should be, again. p.s. mine being a pre-facelift with SLA headlights (version B), it uses a different mechanism to hold the bulb. Version A headlights use the spring clip method. Broken one on left. Replacement on right. How it sits on the D3S bulbs....
  7. looks like a standard EFB rather an EFB+ EFB+ models generally provide higher amp-hour capacity and slightly stronger cold-cranking amps (CCA) than baseline EFB tiers from the same brand family.
  8. From factory they come with EFB+ batteries. If it's changed to AGM, then the battery type needs to b changed to "Fleece". Also....it's 3 yrs, so it's about time to start dying, in hence time to replace.
  9. Wat @Berisford said.....
  10. If u have a genuine heated windscreen, it will have a purple haze/tinge to it, in the sunlight. Otherwise it will b a normal greenish haze/tinge.
  11. The R600 setup has the dual air intake and replaces the entire factory air box setup. Its filter connects up to turbo inlet pipe.
  12. None of the after market intakes will unblock the closed off air flow behind the grill. All they do is remove the blocked section on the intake itself. Essentially it's like having a blocked nose on one side. U can see in the first image that the air intake on the right, even when unblocked, is still blocked by the flow coming through the front grille. I don't know why Skoda does this. To remove the restriction, u need to remove the front bumper and dremel (cut) out the plastic trim on the right side. I did this to mine a long long time ago. If u want to take full advantage of the factory intake or aftermarket intake - u need to unblock the air flow on the right side. Factory setup has the right side airflow blocked. Air flow into the air intake (top) blocked on right side. Close up of the blocked air flow on right side, from factory. Close up of unblocked air flow on left side, from factory. Air flow into the air intake (top) after being cut out on the right side.
  13. Yes, same approach for the liftback. It's the "proper* way to do it, but definitely more effort/work to do This is a video of how to remove the trim.
  14. Olly Molly....that exhaust is spot on!! Great numbers with the tune! Well done in getting it sorted.
  15. Wat part number did u put? It should b E10-79-012-03-22 for a 220 (FWD) wagon/estate (3V5). AWD Estate is E10-79-012-04-22.
