Bon Jour! Welcome to Briskoda I’ve just moved this to the yeti section so you will get a bit more direct help on your issue.

Rivnut. I would’ve used one when my mk1 Octavia shed a hatch strut, except when it failed it stretched/ bent the metal around the mounting point. I just measured a stick to use as a prop until I traded in the car 🤣

Hi, What model of car do you have?

70k on a 10year old diesel is not enough mileage for the emissions systems to be happy. I’d lay money that the egr valve is sticking open, probably clogged with soot from hundreds of short journeys over the last decade.

Join here as a freedom or freedom lite and sell it through the forum market place. Don’t try to do it without paying though, that’s when the mod warnings stick gets brought out 😜

Someone will be able to help a bit more in this section then 👍🏻

Hi @martyk91 Is it a mk 2 or mk 3 superb you have? 2015 was the model change year

Hi RevChris, welcome the forum! I hope it’s only all good satnav feedback 😉🤣🤣

They may have a vehicle, but that’s about it. I actually contacted 2 nearby dealers about it a couple of wks ago, and I was told - “We aren’t getting training or proper info packs until October, hopefully a demo car in November, so really won’t be able to do much other than put your name on a possible interest list to let you know. Deliveries not likely before Jan 2027 being very optimistic.” Still though, it’s a very interesting package.

Translated - Where to find firmware to download as iso and then put on a CD and install Please use only English on the forum, as it is the default language as specified in the site rules. The site forum can in fact automatically flag “foreign” language use as possible spamming attempts and could lead to accidentally banning your account. If your English isn’t very good, google translate actually does a very decent job for most languages, even with the technical jargon used in most car maintenance discussions.

Morning, Please note that English is the primary language to be used in Briskoda. You can use several translation tools to help with this if needed. The software can alert the admin team to possible spamming attacks if non English languages are used repeatedly. Thanks!

Surely there’s a product number on it somewhere like the side windows?

Evening, I presume you trying to figure out the part number of the specific windscreen?

Surely, yeah, but… electrical gremlins are tricksy little bar stewards as well you should know 😂😂

I would test it cold AND hot. Wiring gets warm too and expands, so might only be an issue when the wiring has warmed up too. But more likely if it is the harness, it likely on the circuits controlling the temperature induced egr activation that Pete mentioned a few posts ago.

Can I suggest disconnecting the wiring harness from the EGR to the ECU & anywhere else it goes and doing a continuity check on the harness? If disconnecting the plug is solving it, it may be frayed wires causing a short in the harness causing it to send corrupted signals to the ECU and thus the running issue..

Little Donkey meets the basic criteria, and tbh an EV is what really suits my needs now.

Missus mac is on her second auto Arona. It’s not a bad car for what it is. I just wish manufacturers would get off the “compact SUV” bandwagon. It isn’t really any bigger than a focus, just a bit puffier on the outside.

C4 Cactus /Aircross

I second the Grandland. Drove one once, briefly, awful.

Well don’t leave, we’ll all want to hear about life with the Audi too, And you still be able to help people out around here with your Superb experience

Try unplugging the MAF sensor. If it changes, try plugging it back in and see what happens. The maf may be dying or possibly it was disconnected and not plugged back in fully causing bad sensor info to be sent to the ECU causing the revs the hunt

Original thread information - pasted here for convenience. about a month ago i had the fuse box under the battery replaced by main dealer, very expensive my lights were flashing all over the dashboard. That cured it but the last month or So my tick over fluctuates between 1000/1400. Have cleaned throttle body but no change. Any suggestions. Thanks

Second thread -

you’re not really giving us any information that might help anybody start figuring out what might be causing it…
