JR RS

I had the same experience too fitting a lower insert dogbone mount in my 220, but I went with the 034-motorsport. Been 2+ yrs now. Still loving it & going strong. No more axle-tramp. Gear shifts r crisp. Engine feels more responsive.

I changed mine to Whiteline endlinks. Tis not required as the factory ones r good, but I wanted to, for peace of mind, given my car is lowered 20mm.

Same here. In my Individual mode - everything, except Engine and Air-conditioning, is set to "Sport". Everything else is retained on ignition.

No, Eco is its own Drive mode, i.e. E1, E2, E3, E4 etc. etc. There r only 3 Drive modes for engine/transmission - Eco, Normal & Sport. Eco = E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6 Normal = D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6 Sport = S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6 U can put the car into Manual in any of those.

folks need to remember there is a distinction between Driving Mode and Drive Mode. Driving mode refers to the driving profile characteristics. this includes a number of things, such as steering, drive, suspension, air-con etc. etc. see image below. Options r can b Eco/Normal/Sport, or if u have DCC Eco/Comfort/Normal/Sport/Individial. This does not reset each time the car is restarted. Drive mode refers to the engine + transmission behaviour/mapping ONLY. Options r Eco/Normal/Sport. The Drive mode is just one of many Driving mode characteristics. It is set when u select a driving mode profile. This resets to Normal each time the car is restarted. Not the Driving Mode - just the Drive mode is reset. This is to do with the emissions control mentioned already in an earlier post above. My Superb MY17 will remain in watever Driving Mode Selection (Eco/Comfort/Normal/Sport/Individual), but regardless of wat the driving mode selected, the Drive mode will always revert to "Normal" when the car is started. Hence it will show D1,D2,D3 etc etc upon restart, despite the driving mode still being set to Eco/Sport/Individual. u need to re-select the driving mode for it the engine drive mode to matching the driving profile.

They physically have it, yes, but version A only has the stripes, which is wat u see from the outside, but not the hardware (light optics) to make them light up.

Not quite correct. It will only ever show "Dynamic Light Assist" in the infotainment, if u have HBA enabled, or have SLA headlights, but u won't b able to distinguish between version A and B headlights with this. if u don't have HBA enabled and version A headlights - it will show "Light Assist". if u have HBA enabled and version A headlights - it will change to "Dynamic Light Assist" version B will already show "Dynamic Light Assist".

@travs - u have a facelift. They have an entirely different headlight setup, especially the hardware & electronics. They behave different too. The coding & discussion above is pre-facelift related. The coding is not applicable to the facelift version.

The eyelashes on mine are always on. - Auto or Off: DRL stripe full brightness, Eyelashes full brightness (u can see it in the image below, and the previous image i posted) - Side light on: DRL stripe dimmed, Eyelashes dimmed - Low beam on: DRL stripe dimmed, Eyelashes dimmed

I've been running Android 12 on my Pixel 5 for a few months now - Android Auto is still behaving fine. I am using an AAWireless dongle though, nonetheless, that shouldn't make a difference.

Bugger, that's no good. Mine worked first time, and I know of others over the years who have also successfully coded it. If u have version B headlights, by default, the whiskers will only light up when the low beams r on. In DRL or side light position the whiskers r off. The coding posted enables the whiskers in all positions. The should dim, like the DRL strip, when either in side light position, or low beams r on.

Any rear swaybar for the mk7 Golf R will fit ur 206/280 Superb. Quite a few have installed this.

Actually there is more to it with version B. Version A has AFS (adaptive lighting), so it does up down left right check. Version B does the similar, but in addition it also does a beam flattening and then a high U-shaped beam. https://youtu.be/cqCnOi2dDnc

U need to make sure u have version B xenon headlights, otherwise the coding won't have any effect. Only version B headlights have the hardware to light up the eyelashes, or as I call them - whiskers. Image below is wat I did to enable mine. No, the coding will definitely not work with a facelift Superb.

On long trips (2 hrs +), my Google Pixel 5 gets too hot in the Superb's built-in wireless charger, if using wireless Android Auto. So for long trips I now connect the phone via the cable.

Depending on the market, Skoda offers (well they used to back in 2017.....) up to 3 suspension grades:- 1. Standard suspension (std shocks, std springs) 2. Sports suspension (std shocks, 10mm lower springs) 3. Adaptive suspension (DCC shocks, 10mm lower springs) With Sportline models (if equipped with DCC), we've been able to confirm that it's the same DCC shocks, based on part numbers. Not sure if the DCC software parameters differs for Sportline variants. Haven't been able to confirm if springs physically differ.

interesting. so why does Skoda put an 18" skinny spare for the 280/Scout AWD models?

if u have AWD, i.e. 340mm disc brakes, then the minimum rim size required is 18". non-AWD Superb has 312mm disc brakes, hence they can getaway with 16" rims.

Do u have a link to the RPM one? And do u know if it is compatible with the 220 (aka GTi engine)? I know about the BCS Powervalve one, but it seems to b specific for the 280 (aka R engine).

I simply put a layer of Car Builder's Stage 2 Acoustic layer on the boot floor - added about 12 mm thickness, and added bonus of noise dampening. I hardly notice that slight bend in the boot liner.

Putting the full size spare wheel in, the rim face will NOT touch the boot floor. ....and yes, u need to secure it with a screw. There is a thread already about this, where we've discussed at length the bits n pieces required. The search function is ur friend. I've had 3 punctures in the space of 1 yr - and each time the spare goes on the rear, the assist systems and ACC get disabled. Annoyed the crap out of me - hence I had to get myself a full sized spare.

No, not original Skoda ones, but AliExpress ones. I had to cut/mould it to fit around the Rieger side skirt, otherwise there is no way it would fit.

I've got the start-stop module fitted in mine - it's great. No issues whatsoever. Best part is that I can activate the start-stop feature at the touch of the button, as I've not disabled it. Handy given the current price of fuel, even if it's only a little amount of fuel saved.

The 220 only came with the DSG-6 (DQ250), with the pre-facelift at least. The 272 comes with DSG-7 (DQ381). I'm not sure if the facelift version now comes with the DSG-7 (DQ380) for FWD models.

If u have the VIN number, then u can jump on Erwin (Skoda) online to see ur car's build details, including exactly wat DSG box u have.
