Yep same here, my 2016 S3 had the 24 hr clock but the 2020 S3 facelift seems to only have the 12 hr 😞

At that sort of mileage and the town driving you are probably better going for petrol. The diesels need a good run pretty much weekly to complete the dpf regeneration. Jumping from a vrs to a Superb you will find that the standard suspension is a bit soggy. Worth looking at the Sportline which is a bit lower and firmer.

Any concerns buying a 2015-2016 Superb?
Sheriff replied to laurusbaurus's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
AdBlue didn't come in on the 150bhp ones until mid 2017 I think. All 190bhp ones have it. -

I had a 2016 150 diesel manual until a couple of months ago. Traded it in with 150k on the clock. Needed clutch and rear shocks doing. Only failure I'd had was the water pump at 4yrs and 112k. Rest just routine servicing etc. -
That's very interesting to know. I replaced mine with the cheapo Chinese ebay ones and they worked fine if a little noisier than the genuine ones. The garage gave me the old ones back so I'll have to have a look at the wiring and see if they are any breaks or bare wires.

You lot are a lot braver than me!! I think I'm pushing my luck if I get down to a range of 25 or 30 miles 🤣

Welcome, there are a couple of us in the Northwich area who have Mk3 Superbs. What colour is your vrs? Will keep a look out for you
-
Glad to be of help hopefully. I had the tyre man come and change them on my drive for me. The wear on the old ones was quite uneven but there was still quite a bit of tread. They were about 4 years old at the time I think. New tyres solved the noise problem straight away.

Glad to be of help. Might get a few more years out of it with a bit of luck!!

Could well be saw-toothing of rear tyres. My 16 Superb did it and it sounded like a wheel bearing. Had an advisory on mot for wear on rear tyres and changed them. Noise gone
-
Are you sure your 2016 Superb is Euro 5? I though all the Mk3 Superbs from mid 2015 onwards with the 150 and 190 engines were Euro 6.

Superb SE L vs Sportline Plus
Sheriff replied to onedaymyfriend's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
I've just traded my 2016 sel for a 2020 sportline and the suspension is quite a bit firmer. Makes for a better ride as the old one was a bit soggy almost. -
What have you done to your Superb III today?
Sheriff replied to boydeee's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Yep had to change mine today as they wouldn't put new car on existing policy. £242 in March and £507 today. -
Superb sportline 2016, what's your thoughts
Sheriff replied to Zeek88's topic in About to buy a SKODA?
If you do get any electric tailgate strut issues, there are plenty of pattern items on Ebay at under £200 the pair. Several of us on here have fitted them without issue and it's a huge saving on the reputed £1,000 ish Skoda are charging!!
