Front Splitter
I removed my front bumper so I could properly align (drill holes for the 30x torx screws required) my Rieger splitter and fit speedy fasteners (so I can remove and refit the splitter in a few minutes).

DSG torque limits if mapping - have you had joy or tears?
If u have a 6 speed, it's definitely DQ250. The DQ250 can more than handle Stage 1 tune power levels. It can also handle Stage 2 with a TCU tune. I had an APR Stage 2+ tune running on my previous car (mk2 Octavia RS) with the same gearbox - it handled well/fine for 4+ years.

Does ACC / Front assist need calibration?
The ACC does NOT think the car is in ur lane - it knows the car is in the adjacent lane, and it's clearly shown in graphics. It is, unfortunately, a "safety feature" that prevents u from undertaking a car in the right adjacent lane for RHD countries, or undertaking a car in the left adjacent lane for LHD countries. This feature can b disabled using VCDS or OBDEleven. Plenty have done it, including myself.

Headlight washer not working
Didn't u say u recently had one of ur headlights replaced? Whoever did that has likely done something to the wiring/connector for the bumper electrics. An "Open Circuit" usually means it's not connected or unplugged, or the wire is cut/damaged.

Xenons
if that is with ur headlights on - something is wrong as it appears there is no light beam hitting the wall at all!!! below is a video of mine starting up - i'm about 7 to 10 meters from the wall, but u can clearly see the light. https://youtu.be/cqCnOi2dDnc

Xenons
Sorry, I didn't explain that well. @langers2k explained it perfectly. Thank u sir.

Xenons
Too close to the wall.......but ur right side beam looks a bit off, a bit swollen compared to the left beam.

Fuel tank
@Haystack1- yes my understanding is that all Oz Superbs get the "larger than 66L" tank. not sure if its specific to an option pack though as i got mine with Tech and Comfort Packs. in the 4+ years i've owned the car -i regularly put in 70L to 76L each time i fill up, with the range (to empty) showing between 30km to 0km, depending on how much i leave it. its nothing to do with bigger distances/ports/yards etc etc. i've seen a price listing for one of the european countries where it shows it (1Z2) as an option, and an associated price. I think it was Polish.

Fuel tank
90L!!! It's not a Landcruiser!! as @xman said, some markets have the option to spec up the larger tank. the PR code is 1Z2. normal 66L tank is OM4. if u c both codes, u have the larger tank. the boot build sticker will not tell u this. U need to use Erwin Skoda to get a vehicle specific report, to see every single PR code used to build ur car.

Wheels help please
as @MarkyG82 pointed out - DCC is approx. 10mm lower than standard non-DCC equipped cars. the Prokit's 30-35mm drop is based on standard suspension. hence with the DCC, the drop is 20-25mm only.
-
Wheels help please
Thanks my build thread has the details of my setup in more detail, but essentially i have Eibach Prokit springs (lowers the car 20mm), with factory DCC shocks (i've done the DCC recalibration to make it ride better). i have 15mm hub-centric spacers front & rear. the side skirts (painted to match body color) and front lip (painted gloss black) r Rieger.

Wheels help please
not all 19s r harsh, or hard, or bouncy!! depends on ur setup. the 19s on mine r not harsh at all, even with the lowered springs and DCC shocks. they're quite comfortable. if i want to firm things up - i put the shocks in Sports mode. doesn't make it trim/bone jarring though. if i want super comfy/floaty feel - i put the shocks into Comfort mode. its a lot more comfortable than the my previous mk2 Octavia RS which had 18s and standard RS shocks.

Superb headlight with SLA adjustment
@miloshst- don't have a pic, but I have a video of the SLA start-up. Shows u the horizontals. https://youtu.be/cqCnOi2dDnc

Superb headlight with SLA adjustment
I don't know how to, or wat is involved with recalibrating SLA headlights with it's rollers. Doing the manual (vertical/horizontal) adjustments will not affect the SLA rollers. There will b some other trick to it. Below is a video of my SLA in action at night. https://youtu.be/v3BgUfsupkM

Loose door edge on my Skoda Superb 3.
glue failure alone "shouldn't" cause any issues as there r still a dozen or more clips, plus screws holding it in place. more likely its been damaged as a result of being hit/scrapped.

Loose door edge on my Skoda Superb 3.
It's glued, clipped AND screwed in......makes no sense how it can become "loose". Strange U have this scenario.

Skoda Voice Commands is turning on when connecting Android Mobile Phone
I used to have this on rare occasions too with my wired Android Auto - like u, turning on and off the Skoda voice assistant fixed the music volume control. Now with my wireless android auto, using AAWireless, I haven't had this issue since.

Wheel spacers?
Doing the DCC recalibration on mine fixed the last remaining floatiness and crashy bounces that the Eibachs couldn't eliminate. It's great now.

JB4 VS APR Stage 1 tune
APR Stg 1 tune for the 206 Superb is now $899, permanently. Not a special/sale price. The 162 is now $799. I got it done in Feb this year - loving it.

Can anyone with a 2.0 TSI 220 factory spare wheel tell me the size?
Ah geez......I should probably speak in a language other than English! As I previously mentioned - from factory, if optioned, the 220 comes with a 16" rim, wearing 205/55R16 tyres. 1G4 is the PR code. If u want to match rotational speeds with a 16/17/18 rim - then u can continue reading the debates.........
-
Can anyone with a 2.0 TSI 220 factory spare wheel tell me the size?
I've got a 235/40R19 tyre as spare - it has only raised the boot floor by about 2-2.5 cms, and with a 15mm thick foam underlay on the underside of boot floor carpet, it's barely noticeable with it in place. No protrusions.
-
Can anyone with a 2.0 TSI 220 factory spare wheel tell me the size?
the mk3 220 does not come with 340mm disc brakes up front. it has 312mm front disc brakes - 1ZA (PR Code). it has 300mm rear disc brakes - 1KU (PR Code) the 16" factory spare fits over the front brakes with no issues.
-
Can anyone with a 2.0 TSI 220 factory spare wheel tell me the size?
The 220 comes with a 16" spare from factory, wearing a 205/55R16, like this.... Mine normally wears factory 19s. I've recently put a full sized 19" as a spare.

Steering wheel vibration on R19 wheels
steering wheel vibration at any speed is NOT normal. any Skoda Service Centre that tells u that is normal is incompetent n must have their license revoked!!!! i have 19s on my Superb (220 FWD), and i've driven plenty of times at speeds higher than 110km/h, for hours, with no issues/vibrations. something is not right with ur car. either the tyres r not balanced, or alignment, or something else worse.
