Hopefully i am!

Anyway, when the turbo kicks in i've noticed that there is a weird noise coming from the engine bay. Other times it sounds like a dump valve even though it's not got one ha!

I've never had a turbo before so not sure if this is normal and hoping someone can help me out.

If its a Tsi then it should have a standard dumpvalve. Otherwise you may be hearing the wastegate also large turbo engines have a definite induction sound!

Rear Washer Leak Through Tailgate

Rear Washer Leak Through Tailgate

Swervin_Mervin · 6 February, 20224 yr

Hi all. Went to sort rear washers on our hatch, as they'd not been working for a while. Noticed that it seemed to be dribbling out of the tailgate near the opening switch. Stripped the interior trim back and took a look but everything looked A-ok. So removed the washer jet nozzles and gave that a good clean out. Checked the wash without that attached and sure enough a good height on the spray! Now have 2 working jets again (although I think it's a dump setup). Howe

The 280PS Thread

l4wrence · 15 July, 201510 yr

So, there seems to be very little info on the 280PS version of the Skoda Superb at the moment. I'm sure that will change in time but if anyone finds further information on this engine please post here. There are currently no reviews of this engine and the configurator is also not showing it. The only few things I've found are posted below as a starter. I'm likely to order this engine in L&K when I have the cash as it seems to tick the boxes (practicality for SWMBO and umphh for me)

Where can I find a keyless entry sensor?

Where can I find a keyless entry sensor?

TallSkoda · 13 May13 May

I've gone and lost a key in my house (it's not down the back of the sofa, I checked twice). I don't have a HackRF, so my next thought was to extend the wiring to a sensor and walk my house while my wife activates the door handle. Which sensor is the easiest to get to and where exactly do I need to be looking? Thanks in advance! 2022 Mk3 Estate

2020 Kamiq with ACC - opinions?

Maxr · 4 December, 20241 yr

I'm looking at a 2020 Kamiq SEL as a second car, which has the fairly rare 'adaptive' cruise control (not 'predictive adaptive'). I've had mixed experiences with ACC on two Citroens. My recent C5 has it, and it works great and very smoothly so long as you remember that all it really does is keep you on station with the car in front and stop you running into it. Before that had an older Berlingo. That had ACC that it worked, but that system braked fairly hard and later than I'd have liked, then a
