i haven't washed Gandalf for almost 3 months now!! 😢 thank goodness i have color that hides the dirt well.

I have the back covers on for the headlights - been 2 yrs now with no issues. Ideally have the back cover off, however I'm concerned about dirt and water ingress inside the headlights, causing headaches. Hence cover stays on.

A few of us have switched the xenon bulbs to LED D3S bulbs, including myself. Highly recommended. I got JW Speaker LEDs in my Superb MY17. A huge improvement over the Phillips xTremeVison Gen 2 xenon bulbs i had before. It's got a built-in heatsink and fan - very important for cooling. Plug'n'play. No coding required. No CANBUS errors or warnings. Footage from my dashcam.

That is disappointing to hear. So even after changing the whole DGG unit it's still no good!?!?! That does not right. I'm guessing ur car doesn't have a TCU tune?

So after 9 yrs, my oil filter housing started to show signs of an oil leak, all around the base of it. Gandalf wasn't loosing any oil though, based on the dipstick levels. Suspects include cracked oil filter housing, however the weeping was consistent all round it; or the oil filter internal valve adaptor, which the old versions r known to fail. The part has since been revised. or cracked oil filter housing O-ring. Based on that, I decided to replace the internal valve filter and oil filter housing. Parts:- Oil Filter Housing - 06L115401L Updated version, comes with oil filter and O-ring. Oil Filter valve - 06L115678Q Revised and updated version. Whilst I was at it, I also replaced the oil cap. Time to monito now and see if there r any new signs of oil weeping or misting. Fingers crossed.

The input values in the how-to-guide r just examples. Every car has a different first input value. The second input value is always "c9d2". Glad u got it in the end.

Wow.....that is impressive!! Well done. U now have an Ultra Ultra Special Edition Leon FR with all those changes to it!! Lol

Nice work @Binx1310 If u want to take it a step further - put black vinyl on the top half of the lower door trim bit - above the strip. It will b more visible on a white car compared to grey.

@SteveSupurb - these r the meanings of those buttons....

U can't tell by the buttons if the car has DCC shocks, but u can tell by looking in the infotainment menu by selecting the driving mode. Standard shocks only have Eco, Normal, Sport & Individual. The menu says "Driving Mode Selection" DCC shocks have Comfort, Eco, Normal, Sport & Individual. The menu says "DCC/Driving Mode" Alternatively, physically look at the shocks itself - there is a small valve cylinder that sticks out the side of the chamber, if it has DCC....like this.

As above, they started showing up from MY19 onwards, with the 280/272 Superb. Though in some markets, they continued to get the DQ250 for a few more years. DQ250 is DSG-6 wet clutch. DQ381 is DSG-7 wet clutch

Woohoo...... finally u have ur steering wheel sorted! The paddle shifters r a nice touch.

Nothing fancy - just the usual S U P E R B boot badge, with each letter placed on a 2cm L-shaped metal bracket, then super glued inside a honeycomb.

@Binx1310 - sorry to hear about ur passenger wing mirror!! As u've found out, they're definitely a lot of $$$ to replace. Keep an eye out at wreckers for a replacement mirror. p.s. car looks good 👍🏽

Did warn u about getting a heated version, difference in clockspring and airbag shape differences. All good, round is wat u prefer....round is wat u get. Fingers crossed the M version works out for u.
