  1. Hi all. I have a 2012 Superb Elegance 170 4x4 manual hatch and was advised at the mot that there is some wear on the fronts. I have been checking all the usual suspects black circles etc, and when I add my reg it says I should have 225 40 18. All of the tyres on the car are 45 profile. Is having the 45 profile likely to affect the Speedo reading tax? Iโ€™m assuming the previous owner went to 45s to improve ride comfort. Any advice or guidance will be very much appreciated Thanks Chris
  2. The main key on my 2012 Superb is playing up. Open and boot buttons work perfectly but the lock button is intermittent at best. I can remove the cover to get to the battery but cant work out how to split the case to check whatโ€™s happening with the lock button. any help greatly appreciated. Pics of front and rear attached for reference. TIA Cheers Chris
  3. Any help appreciated ๐ŸคžI think I should clarify the issue and many thanks for the replies. it is more of a body drone at these revs and I think itโ€™s metal on metal maybe. Iโ€™m looking s at adding some sound deadening to the twin hatch connections to see if I can reduce it. BUT what a fantastic car ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

  5. Any help appreciated. 2012 Superb 170 4x4 and the rear has a drone at 2 - 2500 revs. Almost rocks the car. Disappears if I drop from 6th to 5th but really annoying that that is motorway speeds and Iโ€™ll kill the mpg. Seems to be coming from the hatch/boot anyone else had this and any suggestions that I can look at? TIA
  6. Hopefully a quick one๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž my rear park sensors have given up the ghost and Iโ€™m going to fit an aftermarket set. Cany anyone advise what cable to tap into for reverse light feed, hopefully at the top of the boot/hatch TIA
  7. Cheers Chimaera. Iโ€™ll replace the module and see where we end up ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  8. Is anyone aware of where I can identify the cable route to the buzzer which I believe is under the headliner. If it runs from the control module, I can try to locate the cables coming from the module plug cut and add in a new buzzer and se if the fault lies there. id be happy to mount the replacement buzzer in the boot area.
  9. Hi can anyone advise what bulb is in the halogen DRL on 2012 Superb please? i can locate instructions on how to access and change bulbs but nothing stating what bulb TIA
  10. Hi again. Managed to access the park sensor module and it appears I am missing the centre connector plug which is showing on the previous pic. Unsure what that cable is or where it may be tied up. I'm trying to avoid removing all of the boot trim
  11. Thanks mate. I now owe you many beers๐Ÿป๐Ÿป
  12. Thanks for that Chimaera. im almost tempted to cut an inspection hatch in the rear right side to just to check it out as itโ€™s behind the door for the first aid kit. Iโ€™m hoping that someone can confirm where the module is placed so I can ensure I access that area and not 2 feet away but I canโ€™t find any diagram.
  13. Hi all. I need to check my rear park control module which, after a VCDS scan, looks like it may hav been disconnected when a Skoda towbar was fitted. ive been told it sits behind the rear off side trim panel in the boot but canโ€™t figure out how to remove or loosen the boot panel to access the module. Iโ€™ve googled for ages and canโ€™t find anything on it any help or advice would be greatly appreciated TIA
  14. Thank you so much chimaera. Iโ€™ll do it tomorrow.
  15. I have 1 horn not functioning (low) and wondered where they are located and how to access them? Am hoping I dont need to remove the front bumper ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž TIA
  16. Ha all. Anyone in East Ayrshire have VCDS as am having issues with rear park sensors o/s TIA ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿคž
  17. Thanks Chimeara Iโ€™ll do that now๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
  18. andrehj. Thanks for your constructive feedback. For your information, the car has factory fitted rear sensors so they do exist. I was looking for potential assistance, not a sweeping โ€˜we canโ€™t help youโ€™ comment. I am hoping you donโ€™t speak for the entire Briskoda network
  19. Thanks for the reply Chimeara. there is not a park sensor switch on the centre console. The car has had a Skoda towbar fitted so not sure if the park sensors have been disabled. I donโ€™t have VCDS unfortunately i guess the saga continues ๐Ÿ˜•
  20. Yes reverse lights are working fine ๐Ÿคซ
  21. Nothing on the display, either on the nav on dash.
  22. Just bought a 12 plate Superb and the rear park sensors appear not to work. No beep when reverse is selected. The fuse also controls the swivel lights etc which are working fine. any clues appreciated TIA
  23. Hi all looking for some advice as Iโ€™m looking at buying a 2012 Superb 4x4 Elegance Manual. Just passed 100k with full history. Any clues on issues to look out for would be much appreciated
