Ottocast
Early MIB3 units could only do wireless CarPlay and wired Android Auto. MiB3 unit since then can do wireless BOTH CarPlay and Android Auto. MIB2 and MIB2.5 units can never do wireless - hence they need dongles like AAWireless or OttoCast.

Ottocast
I know of a few peeps using the Ottocast mini in their Superb and they like it. Very small, easy to use.

Option to enable/disable dynamic LED rear indicators.
It's needs to b the "high" version tail light - both inner & outter lights, which has a different wiring harness for the dynamic sweeping of the indicator. Then yes, u need to code/enable it.

How-to Guide to Upgrade MIB2 to MIB2.5
Glad to hear the guide was helpful. With regards to the issues ur having - did u use the VW firmware for ur Passat? Cause the Skoda firmware is different. Many have followed the same or similar instructions with success. The guide I created was that based on mib-solutions and Github.

Wheel spacers?
i had no issues using 15mm spacers with the factory 19x8" (ET44) rims and 235/40/19 tyres. i had slight scrubbing, at the rear only, on full compression when i switched to 245/40/19 tyres. at this point i changed to 10mm spacers. i'm now running aftermarket 19x8.5" (ET35) rims with 245/40/19 tyres - no spacers required.

Led bulbs
using the correct LEDs in correctly aimed headlights will not cause any dazzling, nor attract any unwanted attention from Police. p.s. - i'm not saying its "legal"
-
Led bulbs
in my opinion - definitely worth it. my previous xenon Phillips xTremeVision Gen2 bulbs were still good, but they were nearing 6 yrs of use, so i decided to refresh them with LEDs. with LEDs, they get quite hot, hence make sure u get one with a heatsink AND fan. But the fan has to b slim enough so u can refit the headlight cover at the back. if the fan and/heatsink is too bulky, then u won't b able to refit the cover at the back, which will allow dirt n water to get inside the headlight, potentially damaging the internal electrics and motors.

Remove ACC Radar Cover?
Looks like u have a facelift Superb. It has a different bumper grille design.

Led bulbs
Previously (6 yrs ago) I had replaced the factory xenons with Phillips xTremeVision Gen 2 - it was much brighter & better. Top - Factory Bottom - xTremeVision Gen 2 The switch to LED bulbs was better & brighter again. Video of it now.....

I replaced the D3S xenon bulbs with D3S LEDs about 1.5 yrs ago - no issues, no errors, no coding needed. Mine is MY17.

Dynamic indicators?
Headlights - no Rear tail lights - no Wing mirror - yes U can retrofit the rear tail lights from the facelift, high version, which does dynamic/sweeping indicators. But u'll need to change a number of other things though, including wiring harness plug.

It's hard to tell wat is going on with urs. Provided u followed all the coding instructions across all the different modules, there should b no reason for it not to show on ur instrument cluster.

70mph drone
I'm not sure of cheap options, but either u remove the res delete pipe and put back the centre resonator back or replace with an Anti-drone Res delete pipe. Not cheap though. I have a RPM Performance Anti-drone Res Delete Pipe in my Superb. No drone whatsoever at any speed or any engine load.
-
70mph drone
Yup, based on ur pic - that definitely has a resonator delete pipe. 272 has similar exhaust setup to 280 - both AWD.
-
70mph drone
Coded exhaust valves won't cause the drone. Sounds like a res delete pipe is in place. The AWD Superb 280 has a resonator (square looking box) in front of the rear axle. The FWD Superb has a long rectangular pyramid type resonator at the centre of the car.

How-to Guide to Upgrade MIB2 to MIB2.5
I bought the trim off the wreckers, based on the colour/finish. Mine was definitely Brushed Silver. Wasn't looking at the part number specifically as it was confusing, as ur finding out.

2016 S3 L&K Headlights replacing for continental - options?
No, it's not a straight swap. In addition to the physically different SLA (version B) headlights:- u also need different light control modules (1x for each headlight) parameterization file for the 4B Multi-function module. Need to use VCP or ODIS. Coding changes to 4B Multi-function module. Need to use VCDS or OBDEleven. Coding changes to 09 Central Electrics module. Need to use VCDS or OBDEleven. Coding changes to A5 Camera module. Need to use VCDS or OBDEleven.

Steel Pedal Covers for DSG
There never has been a vRS Superb. The Sportline trim Superbs get the aluminium pedals as standard. I got some aluminium pedals covers, from Kopacek, to go over my plastic pedals. I also got the footrest aluminium cover too, to match. Been many many many years now - all good.

Suspension options
No, still factory DCC shocks, but I've done the DCC Mod & DCC Recalibration, which completely transforms the factory adaptive suspension feel - no more bounce, no more wallow, no more bottoming out.
