Maybe it ur Driving Profiles. The Driving Profiles affect the ACC distance, and resume to speed characteristics. Hence in Comfort Mode - it will b in no hurry to close the gap, or accelerate to the set speed in any hurry. In Normal mode - it won't waste time. In Sports mode - it will super quick.

ah i see. unfortunately, it still scrubbed (only at the rear) in Sport mode with 245/40/19, 15mm spacers and lowered. i could hear it scrubbing when taking corners. with 235/40/19, 15mm spacers and lowered - no scrubbing in any mode, or any compressions. with 245/40/19, 10mm spacers and lowered - no scrubbing in any mode, or any compressions.

@fencer- I dealt with a person at Eibach Sydney office - there was no confusion about part numbers between hatch or wagon. The same part numbers apply to the Passat B8. Either way - good luck with ur new springs. @Donweather- yes, my car has DCC, which means it was already 15mm lower than standard, from factory. Also, the different modes do not change ride height. So putting it in Sport will not have an effect, apart from ur compression rates.

i just noticed u got E10-79 series springs!! that's for the Wagons - would explain why ur rear hasn't dropped as much the front. the wagon has a heavier backend than the liftback. the E10-85 series is the correct springs for the sedan/liftback. E10-85-042-03-22 - FWD Sedan E10-85-041-04-22 - AWD Sedan For the Wagons..... E10-79-012-03-22 - FWD Wagon E10-79-012-04-22 - AWD Wagon

I think with the overall design of the Superb body - u can't avoid that "nose heavy" look. Another reason why I got the Rieger side skirts, to fill out the sides as it made the car look more nose heavy without it. The Eibach Pro-kit springs have dropped evenly on mine, with even wheel gaps front & back. When I measure from the distance from top arch centre to the bottom of tyre - it is 670 mm all-round.

I have the same setup too, with no issues either. But I have only 10mm spacers at the rear because I have 245/40 tyres. The rear was fine with 235/40 tyres and 15mm spacers, but with 245 tyres, it scrubbed on compression. Hence I reduced the spacers to 10mm at the rear. No issues now. @Frankenfurter unlike us, is running 20" wheels that r 8.5" wide, wearing 245/35 tyres. Hence his question if it will scrub on compression after he lowers it on the Eibach Pro-kit springs. I think some negative camber on the rear will solve his problem. fronts will b fine.

Sorry, I didn't realise u were referring to the actual button on the boot. As others have said - it's red.

+1 i bought LED bulbs, to try, but never ended up fitting them. the LED bulbs, combined with their heatsink and fan, is usually too long, meaning that u can't place the back cover on. no back cover means dirt and crap can get inside the headlight unit, which is no good. and even if it does end up fitting, those LED heatsinks get so so hot, that there is a risk of it melting the back cover, or the surrounding plastic inside. i'm just sticking to my upgraded Phillips xTremeVision Gen2s xenon bulbs. they do a good job.

I have the exact same reversing lights - they're great n still going strong after 4 plus yrs now.

If the boot is open, it shows as red on the cluster, like the doors. If the boot is closed, it shows as white on the cluster, like the doors. Maybe ur boot latch sensor/switch is misbehaving, and needs to b replaced.

I've since replaced my AliExpress with genuine Skoda mudflaps that I purchased from Kopacek. The AliExpress ones r much smaller in size compared to the genuine ones - hence "less protection". The AliExpress I got were these ones:- AU $22.61 48%OFF | Front Rear Car Mudflaps for Skoda Superb B8 3 MK3 3V 2016~2019 Fender Mud Guard Flap Splash Flaps Mudguard Accessories 2017 2018 https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqjGeA4

Wat ur feeling is not "normal". The 1.4 uses the dry 7 speed DSG box (DQ200) - it is very unrefined, harsh and has been subject to recalls over the past few years. The bigger engines get paired with the wet 6 speed DSG box (DQ250), and now the new wet 7 speed DSG box (DQ381).

Brilliant - thanks.

I can send u the 4B parameter file required for SLA. PM ur email address.

If I had a red Superb - I would've got that. I did however replace my chrome grille surround with a black version though, from Kopacek.

so is ur airbag still disconnected? or is it connected and all is well now? i hope its not the first one.

Some pics of Gandalf before I wash him again after 3 months!!

I bought my D3S Phillips Xenon X-tremeVision gen2 from Powerbulbs. They have sales often.

I've attached a PDF on how to remove the front bumper. Basically:- 1. Put front on jack stands 2. Remove front wheels 3. Remove wheel arch liner 4. Disconnect washer fluid pipe 5. Disconnect electrical plugs 6. Remove screws holding bumper 7. Remove bumper Removing Front Bumper.pdf

Made a difference for my FWD Superb. Not as much a difference as wat the rear swaybar does, but it's noticeable difference to steering feel and turn-in. I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. This is the one I'm using, along with a Hardrace rear swaybar.

this is the particular one i have - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001012474153.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.4e381802x44OkP it has 3 modes:- 1. auto off mode 2. memory mode 3. factory mode

It should do that already. I'm pretty sure u've setup ur Start-Stop Memory module incorrectly. They have 3 or so settings/modes, which dictate their "memory" function. Mine is setup so it retains the last state, no matter engine being turned on/off.

Get urself a Start-Stop Memory module - does exactly wat ur after. A few of us have done it, including myself. Highly recommended. Much better option than permanently disabling the Start-Stop function entirely using OBDEleven or VCDS.

After a long 3 months from the last wash, Gandalf is shiny clean again!!

as i previously mentioned - the steps/instructions i have provided is for the pre-facelift superb. it will b completely different with ur facelift superb. with regards to the parameter file - a friend i know here in Oz knows a Skoda mechanic in Estonia, who sourced the parameter from a Superb that came with SLA from factory. the mechanic sent the parameter file to my friend, who then used his VCP tool to upload the parameter file to my car. the coding (done via VCDS) instructions i have for modules 09, A5 and 4B is specific to the pre-facelift Superb. if u still want to try it, at ur own risk, then have a look at my SLA retrofit discussion for details.
