Lowering with dcc shocks
@Dahmich- I've lowered mine with Eibach Pro-kit springs. Because mine has DCC, the springs lower the car about 25mm. Works perfectly fine with the DCC shocks. I also recalibrated the DCC shocks after the car was lowered. Anything more that 35mm, then u need to change to aftermarket shocks. Very happy with my setup.

VSDS vs OBDEleven
+1 for not using the Apps in OBDEleven. U have no control of wat changes it actually makes, and it doesn't really clean itself up properly if u choose to revert a change. I only ever do Adaptations or Long Coding. This way, u know each and every single step.

VSDS vs OBDEleven
I used to have VCDS. I now have OBDEleven. I can do the same things on the OBDEleven device as I could with VCDS. VCDS is more cumbersome to use, i.e. laptop and cable. OBDEleven is a lot more convenient because wireless. It is a lot more cheaper too. Personally I prefer the VCDS interface more - feels more "robust" in comparison.

Affirmative. U can also tell by looking at the camera type at the top of the windscreen. Should look like this....

Maximum spacer size for 206 4x4 that does not foul guards
No, not quite. Mine has DCC - hence it is already 15mm lower than the standard setup, from factory. I don't know wat the difference is between a non-Sportline with DCC and a Sportline with DCC. ...or a Sportline without DCC. Mine is lowered a further 20mm by the Eibach Pro-kit springs. The same springs will lower a Superb with Standard suspension by 35mm. These were my measurements, measuring from the centre of the wheel arch to the floor:- Before lowering:- - 690mm (front & rear) After lowering:- - 670mm (front & rear)

Display speed limit
That is Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR). If u didn't specifically order it from factory, u won't have it. If u have the right A5 camera (windscreen) then u can enable TSR, like many of us have, using either VCDS or OBDEleven. .... assuming u don't have an MY20 or later. They seem to have issues due to SFD protection.

Maximum spacer size for 206 4x4 that does not foul guards
Assuming u have the stock 19" Vega or Trinity rims..... My experience.... - no issues with 15mm hubcentric and factory 235/40/19. - no issues with above setup when lowered 20mm. - scrubbing issues on rear only, on full compression, with 245/40/19 tyres. - no issues with 10mm hubcentric on the rear with 245/40/19 tyres. I know of a few who run 20mm spacers with no issues, if it is not lowered. Others have put a negative camber to avoid scrubbing issues.

Facelifting Skoda Superb 2015 to look like 2019
@mr93- thanks. I've gone with OEM look with everything I've done/added to the car. I bought a chrome door strip roll from AliExpress (link below), cut them to size, and stuck them on. Very easy. Yes, they're L-shaped, so the mould nicely over the edge. I even used them on my lower door mould/sill - just like it is in on L&K models if optioned from factory. Sportline models get it in black. I even used the same thing for a strip across the front bumper, again, like OEM, but I removed it when I got the front splitter. They've been on for almost 2 years now. They're still holding strong, through rain, high pressure washes, heat etc. etc. AU $4.33 30%OFF | 10m Car Chrome Moulding Trim Door Seal Strip Sticker For Skoda Octavia A5 A7 Kodiaq Superb 2 Rapid Fabia 1 Porsche 911 Cayenne M https://a.aliexpress.com/_mMm8W92

Start Stop Issue Skoda Superb 280ps 4x4
Unfortunately the cutting out before u've come to a stop is "normal" behavior 😕 It's dangerous and mostly frustrating at roundabout scenarios. Urs is worse considering it's struggling to restart. U have 3 options:- 1. Turn off start-stop each time u start the car, by pressing the button on the centre console. 2. Permanently disable the start-stop function by changing the voltage settings using VCDS/OBDEleven. 3. Fit a start-stop memory module, as indicated by @MartiniB above. This will remember the last state u leave ur start-stop in, so u don't have to press the button each time u start the car. It all means u have the option to activate start-stop when ur in heavy traffic, or stopped for a few minutes at traffic lights. I've done this myself - highly recommended.

Facelifting Skoda Superb 2015 to look like 2019
Sorry, not wat u want to hear. Again, if u search this forum about retrofitting the facelift taillights, u'll c plenty about the bar itself, including part numbers. No, the bar cannot b done by itself without doing the RVC and boot button. Also the outer pre-facelift taillights r not compatible with the bar trim. I too don't have deep pockets either. So I improvised and made my own chrome trim, that covers the boot, and taillights. My taillights r also vinyl wrapped with a light smoke tint. Stoked with the finish. Confuses the **** out people.

Wow.....is the front mudflap wireless or something?!?! For the price it must come with built-in washer jets to clean the wheels as it rotates!!!

Wireless android auto on Skoda Superb III IV 2020.
Initial MIB3 units only did wireless CarPlay, and not wireless Android Auto. Not sure if a software patch/firmware will rectify that?

Facelifting Skoda Superb 2015 to look like 2019
It's MY20 btw, not 2019. It can b done, both front and back, if u've got deep pockets and re-do wiring harnesses. With regards to the rear - do a search in this forum, u'll find a discussion I started about retrofitting facelift tail lights. p.s. I didn't end up doing it. Doing the rear involves:- - new facelift tail light clusters (both inner and outer) - new facelift RVC - new facelift boot button - new chrome/black bar trim - modified wiring harness - VCDS coding - VCP/ODIS parameterization?? Doing the front involves:- - new facelift headlights - new facelift foglights - new facelift bumper - new facelift grille - modified wiring harness - VCDS coding - VCP/ODIS parameterization

Sportsline Fuel Consumption
always always always 98ron. 95ron if ur out of fuel and there is no other option. put in 5L or so, so u can get to a servo with 98 ron. 91ron - never. i'd rather call roadside service to bring me some fuel or get my car towed on the back of a truck.

Superb III Sportline 190 suspension wallowing and pothole bumps
@BPL - looks like u don't have DCC. DCC is not standard across the Superb range. It's standard on the L&K models, and its available as an option in other markets, and some trims (possibly). more on DCC here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpV-YChUivY When u press the Driving mode button (centre console), it will also show there if u have DCC or not. "DCC/Driving Mode"

Sportsline Fuel Consumption
I've got a 162 TSi (220) and these r my figures. Car has a Stg 1 APR ECU tune, and larger 245/40/19 tyres. I always use 98 RON. According to my Fuelio app, I'm doing 8.49L/100. I'm pretty happy with the economy, consistently getting 700 - 900 kms a tank. Also considering how hard I drive it, considering the bigger tyres, and considering the size of the Superb. 👍🏽 Long Term at 7.8L/100:- Freeway driving with ACC set at 110 km/h:- Windy, twisty, up/down hill roads plus freeway driving, with AC set to Auto (22 deg):-

What have you done to your Superb III today?
Lol 😂 I'm pretty sure the brake disc size (340mm) on the 280 Superb is the same as that on the mk3 vRS!! Both front & rear discs r vented on the Superb. The 220 Superb has the smaller 312mm disc size, with only the front vented.
