  1. I don't have Skoda roof racks, but I use Pro-rack and it's clamps have a thick clear plastic film on the side that faces/contacts the roof. Similar to that clear film between the rear door sill and the rear wheel arch. So no chance of scratching when the clamps r fully tightened down.
  2. WOW......Skoda have really gone cheap and downgraded the sub in the Canton system for the facelift Superb!!! no wonder many peeps of the facelift Superb r not impressed with Canton system. the pre-facelift occupies the entire storage cubby space on the left of the boot, and is ported into the chassis frame, so u can feel a nice deep and solid base from the sub-woofer.
  3. First plug in OBDEleven or VCDS and see if any errors come up. The window switch panel can b replaced, if necessary, assuming that is the problem.
  4. Yup, pre-facelift, MIB2 or MIB2.5, USB-A port at the front is a data port, does both CarPlay and Android Auto. If factory fitted with the additional armrest storage USB-A port, it too will also b a data enabled. Both will b data enabled. Would look something like this.... Facelift with MIB3 - I'm not sure how it's setup USB wise apart from the fact that early models could not do wireless natively. That came later.
  5. Mine came with 3 keys too. It's an MY17. I believe it's KESSY related.
  6. As above, turn off the Voice Enhancer in the infotainment menu.
  7. Early MIB3 units did not do wireless natively. They didn't have the appropriate hardware. It only came a bit later. Ur best bet is to stick with a wireless dongle. The USB port at the front (phone box) should definitely b data enabled. It's not charge only.
  8. +1 My experience, and others with MIB2.5 that I know off is that it is very stable. I'm currently running 1440 (MHI2_ER_SKG13_P4526_1_AIO_MU1440)
  9. @Guil - given that u have a USB-C in the charging tray - u have an MIB3 unit. i'm not sure how the MIB3 setup is with the additional USB port in the armrest compartment, but yes, u could try connecting to the AAWireless to the front USB-C port and see if that makes any difference. MIB2 and MIB2.5 can't do/handle USB-C natively.
  10. how is this a "project"?!?!? wrong section
  11. my AAWireless adaptor sits perfectly, directly over the USB port in the phone-box compartment. it is out of sight with no cables dangling. the lid closes too, with no obstructions. if i need to put my phone on charge, i can use the phone-box wireless charger, or plug it into a wired charger inside my armrest storage compartment, where power is sourced from the rear passenger 12v.
  12. That's a shame. Sorry to hear AAWireless2 was not working out for u. Must something off with ur phone and infotainment combo. Out of curiosity, do u have an MIB3 unit?
  13. I've got a downpipe itch. Had the itch for a while now, but tis high time I take action. It's the last of my "improved efficiency" journey, removing the factory downpipe restriction. Problem is APR don't do Stg 2, hence I can't get a downpipe unless I change tuners. Given I already have APR TCU, IE Intercooler and Racingline intake, I'm currently researching the following potential options:- Get IE downpipe and switch to IE Stg 2 ECU Get IE downpipe and switch to Galano ECU tune Talking to my Euro specialist, about pricing & options. Should complement nicely my existing RPM Performance Resonator Delete pipe. Will see....
  14. USB-C would indicate that it is definitely MIB3. MIB is the "infotainment" system used across the VWAG family. in summary, MIB2 is stable, but "old". MIB2.5 is the best of the pick, with the MIB3 have a lot of issues, ranging from freezing, lagging, wireless not working, loosing sound, bluetooth dropouts, mic issues. below r some of the key differences bet MIB2 - pre-facelift mk3 MY15 to MY17. Head unit paired with screens (up to 8") with physical buttons. USB-A. SD-Card, CD/DVD drive Wired Android Auto & CarPlay. No Virtual Cluster. MIB2.5 - pre-facelift mk3 MY18 to MY19. Head unit paired with screens (up to 9.2") with NO physical buttons. USB-A. SD-Card, CD/DVD drive Wired Android Auto & CarPlay. With Virtual Cluster. MIB3 - facelift mk3 MY20 onwards. Head unit paired with screens (up to 9.2") with NO physical buttons. USB-C. No SD-Card, No CD/DVD drive Wired and Wireless Android Auto & CarPlay. With Virtual Cluster.
  15. u should try doing a Search or having a look in the Superb Guides section - u'll b surprised wat u find. How-to Guide for MIB Firmware Update - Skoda Superb Guides - BRISKODA
  16. @leolito - do not mix G12 and G13! They have very different coolant properties and very different service intervals for flushing. G13 is dependent on the Silka to keep it in "good" condition, allowing it to last longer between flushes. G12 does not dependent on silka, however requires more frequent flushing.
  17. Both Camber & Castor is adjustable on the front. Only Camber is adjustable on the rear.
  18. +1 for getting in-channel window deflectors. They blend in, and doesn't effect the window operating. I've been using Heko ones for almost 8 yrs now on my Superb.
  19. 120,000 km Service done for Gandalf! This time round, the Major Service also included the DSG Service and Brake Fluid flush. Also had the front suspension lower control arm bushings re-greased.
  20. Sorry no, I don't have any further info apart from the above that it is available on OBDEleven as an App. I have no interest in such a lighting effect. U'll have to Google search Urban Joke effect, maybe u'll find instructions on how to enable it.
  21. Agreed - I was simply pointing out an option. I personally would never use any of the OBDEleven Apps. I only make changes via Long Coding or Adaptations.
  22. It's the "Urban Joke" Pace Car effect.
  23. That was one of the first things I did many many years ago - opened up the blocked second air intake opening behind the grille. Many people would think opening up blocked bit on the top of the air intake was sufficient, or getting an aftermarket air-intake with both inlets open would do the trick - but both would yield no gains on the Superb unless the blocked air intake behind the grille was opened up.
  24. No, they r not rivets. They're plastic caps that push out and reusable. Just pull it out carefully. The radar itself is fixed in place by "calibrated" screws. i.e. mess with those, or the bracket and ur ACC will b out of whack and require recalibration!!
  25. @abood299 - have a look in the Superb Guides section, u'll c a how-to-guide I made for firmware updates.
