Hello All After my EDITION 100 was written off 3 weeks ago , I set my heart and little money for this beauty. SUPERB ELEGANCE 1.8 TSI DSG MAROON Reg Number LD11 RDX Anyone knows of this car or have any information about it? I hope and pray that dreaded OIL issue did not happened. Car is on Auto Trader Apologise if this type of post breaking any rules Thanks Best zoka

Hello good people After my EDDITION 100 1.9 TDI was written off, im venturing in to MK II category.. this Skoda is on autotrader and I looking to give her new home. Any sugestion advice as i hope that that dreaded oil issue will be shown by now... Thanks Best

Someone hit my parked car, front left wing, wheel and scraped door plastic strips, along the left side. Car is pulling to the right on slow test drive and steering wheel is 30 degrees off when on straight, yellow triangle with circle arrow is on dash when in motion. Insurance declare it total loss, tomorrow old girl will be picked up by CoParts. That is it, end of 1800rpm 70mph costing on M1, **** day. I'm gutted regarding paying occasional ULEZ, it was and it is awesome car, I was ready to keep it as long as possible without any major investment, Jesus HC just 105000 on odometer, not even bedded it properly. Not a drop of rust on her.....ohhhhh Well, joy of looking for 505.01 will be lost forever, like tears in the rain... It's not to be, alas now for the MkII, petrol + DGS. What a pity All the best to all of you and bit extra for the EDITION 100 crew... keep on rolling. Best ZOKA https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/skoda_superb_edition_100_tdi_a

Thanks m8 Realy greatfull that you found the time to replay to my email and for the advice given, not everybody on this forum is as skilfull as rotodiesel, and some other esteamed members Drive safe KKBC Best Zoka

Hello All First thanks for the advice and reassurance that the Edition 100 gear lever can be replaced with the Superb Elegance model. Thanks to KKBC and all of you posting bits and bobs about it. The Tiptronic button on my gear selector got a bit wobbly, and by not listening to the elders and wise ones from this forum (it’s not will it, it's when it will go) I got myself in a bit of a pickle. Gear selector got stuck on to the P position and no budging. Option_1 £427 Inc. VAT from TPS for non-trading sale of original Edition 100 Tiptronic. 2-5 weeks waiting as no part is available in the UK Option_2 £100 Inc. VAT from local small garage for the Superb Elegance model, still 1-2 weeks waiting as no part is available in UK with no guarantee from them that it will fit as per ETKA 3U2713319C (original Edition 100) showing not compatible or replaceable part The wise and good people from this forum confirmed that the Elegance model is compatible with the Edition 100 and I did order it, replaced it, and I hope following details can be useful to somebody else Original Edition 100 part 3U2 173 319 C (too expensive by a mile) Superb elegance part 3U2 713 319 A NED (black and not so bad looking) Here are some pictures of parts and of the wobbly button as a warning to replace your gear lever on time. Best zoka Thanks

numskull and pinstripe Would you please be so kind and elaborate how to do that...

Hi David 8 There is program free to use called "HFSExplorer" which will allow you to mount Mac HD on to Win PC. ( Mac HD via USB connected to pc) or external HD 2.5" case sata to usb ) Make sure to read how to. Plese check web and youtube..... Then you can backup all of files ( not apps)..... hope this will help zoka

What I found today...... It is for my Kenwood DNX 7260 BT ..... still no Skoda listed in car options... But there is passat and there is hope... http://www.justkenwood.co.uk/car-audio.aspx/ctsvw004-ken-remote-adaptor Still no radio info on central console / dashboard-mounted display ( still black ) and steering wheel commands working ...according to promotional blurb QUOTE ________________________________________________________________________________________ CTSVW004.2 VW remote control interface for Kenwood key features The Connects 2 CTSVW004.2 stalk/steering wheel control adaptor enables you to connect a compatible Kenwood head unit to your vehicle's existing factory-fitted audio controls (whether built onto steering wheel or fitted on a stalk next to the steering wheel). The kit contains everything needed to complete the stalk control connection - a vehicle-specific adaptor and a Kenwood-specific connecting wire. You simply plug one end of the adaptor into your cars original wiring harness, and the other end into the new head unit. Instructions are included and no cutting of wires is necessary. Fits vehicle models including: VW Golf VW Passat VW Touran The above list of vehicles is a general guide and cannot be guaranteed in all cases. To ensure compatibility, we recommend that the vehicle connector pictured above is compared to the actual connector on your vehicle. If you have a dashboard-mounted display of audio information, replacing your radio will mean that this will no longer show audio information but it will continue to show clock, temperature etc. _______________________________________________________ END There must be way and will.....

Thanks for your reply Mr. KenONeill Here is current state of affairs: 1. Trip to my local Skoda dealer / stealer yield result of £60 for glass only 2. eBay 5 min search produced following results skoda superb wing mirror glass electric heated aspheric clear tint 2001-2007 RH http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180926860565&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:GB:3160 And I just start to look for non-fogging glue to do my mirror housing repair…. So thanks for your reply and advice, looks like I'm going to sort it for £10-15 and some little know-how which is ok.. Hope this will help some other Briskodian members with cheap replacment of wing mirror glass. Regards zoka

Was broken driver side wing mirror , at least someone put housing on the bonet Mirror was out of comfort zone, (angle wise due the hit I presume) and I just put it to parking position and it worked. So far I can adjust mirror, put it in parking position and I got cracked mirror and housing, as you can see. Advice please Will it suffice to replace just mirror, dealer or eBay? Anybody got any experience how to? Any step by step guide? Is this ok replacement? http://cgi.ebay.co.u...atchlink:top:en Housing wise, will it be ok to glue it or where to find Edition 100 wing mirror housing? Thanks Zoka

Thanks for the nice replys P.S. I sat in Skoda last night, just watching all of the internal lights and idling engine for 15 min. is this normal n00by behaviour :'(

I finaly got it Skoda Superb and not just Superb, Superb Edition 100 1.9 130 Auto After months of lurking on BriSkoda forum, trying to learn the ropes of what is what and what is not, what to look for, what to touch and what to ask,and most importanttly when to say No Thanks, it is not for me, my time has finaly come. Amount of lemons, brused and battered neglected Skoda Superbs with water ingres, cat C write off, water in front lights, etc etc , I got one, I got THE one, in my eyes at least. Mint for the age as mint can be, Everything is working /55 plate / 78000 mil /cambelt changed TWICE / more paperwork than old style Yellow Pages / aftermarket Kenwood DNX7260BT with DVB /Skoda leather wallet with Skoda brushed metal pen in it.......... c'mon how can I miss this one :p I was lucky that owner is/was a extremly knowlegable, patient and polite ( BriSkodian ofcourse ) whom most probably I force in to sale by choking him with the sheer amount of questions I asked OK thanks for all of your reply,suport and whatnot, and now finaly some photos Edition 100 Image posting is not good for me, forum flashing me some errors , sorry just link :( Thanks guys, will let you kow how things going.....

Thank you, all of you for your reply :yes: Thank you Rotodisel for you extensive and thorough insight of B5 mechanic tips solutions and troubles.. reason I became such hard buying customer is because of you and all of Briskodian good people willing to share their troubles and advices.. What is really annoying me is dishonesty of sellers. How you can not to mention tear on back floor carpet, and reply on question "whats happens here m8" with "you know some people who are you sitting at back got sharp heels" After pointing on tinny skinny blue wire (BT phone type of wire) showing under plastic on door-floor cower (one that all of you/us lift to check water ingress), his comment was "it it is for sub-woofer" after my comment "do not talk rubbish you need wire thick as pencil at least to power sub", he sad I got another wire from another side, at this point me feeling run down and fed-up and pi** off from all of this rubbish talk (and being 6'7" and enough/more stones and pounds that I'm willing to admit) pull boot carpet out of the car and drop it on the street and blatantly ask him "where is your sub-woofer"? Oh and the boot carpet was crinkly from water.... he sad I don't now.......? What the @~P@:£...... OK, I admit it is hard to found car that you will love and buy at first sight.... But that 98% of them don't know of water ingress, or why vanity lights on your sun shield is not working.....It is hard to understand. At least for me.... I'm convinced that one special Superb will come my way and I will be happy to drive it to Rotodiesel (if he is OK with this) to fix all obvious things with my new/old Superb will have (20% off current rate for Briskoda members ) So if any of you parting from your Superb......... with water ingress sorted, and reverse parking sensors..you know the story, please let me know Until that time, thanks, all the best and good luck Zoka

After more than welcome advices by you BriSkodian good people, here is state of the affairs Cars that I will describe here are still on sale so no reg numbers no pictures, no direct links but if you are going to search Auto Trader, Gum Tree (London area) and Flee bay for Superb 1.9 Comfort or Elegance you will find cars that are described, deserted, neglected and not look after..

So HPI come back as Category C write off.......... It was done before he bought it......... Beige Comfort... down south.... some rust that was not described in the adds on web... water was almost touching bottom of battery....., CCM function not perfect no vanity light function (parking sensors where shoot.... windshield was scratched ....
