Hi - picked up a Silver 06 Fabia VRS last night from a dealer - decided to get one as they seem fairly well rated - small, efficient and fairly quick is what I wanted. Might end up being the Mrs' car - depends on a few things...

Looking forward to putting a few miles on it and making minor improvements - all being well.

Thanks to everyone for all the combined knowledge they have put on the site so far, has proven very helpful already.

Thanks - I guess not , fairly close to maidstone, but it looks like I should have but an underscore in my username...

06vrs_andy would have probably made more sense!

Can you change front shocks without removing hubs etc? 12 plate 1.6tdi

Alasdair1 · 2 hours ago2 hr

MOT today with a couple of advisory but also yet another broken front spring. Thats seven now in two years on my cars. Sounds a daft question but wondered if anyone has changed front shocks without removing hub. Was wondering if both wheels were off ground with car on axle stands would there be enough play to drop knuckle enough to separate and remove shocks. Alasdair

2023 vrs towbar

DaveSned · 20 February20 Feb

Very confused and apologies if covered elsewhere but can't find it... looking to get a towbar fitted for caravan towing and an independent towbar company is warning about coding and about the rear emergency braking kicking in and not letting me reverse with the caravan in place. Another has said they can fit a towbar but I'd need to take it to a dealer to get it coded. I've contacted my local skoda dealer and they've quoted £1900 for a towbar to be fitted!! I think that when in reverse I can d

MiB 3 from 0270 to 0330

wkexe · 13 May, 20242 yr

Hi, I own a Skoda Superb 3 – it was manufactured in last months of 2020 and it is 2021 model year. I see that everyone on the forum started the updates from at least 0278 software version and I have (I suspect because of first facelift batch) currently 0270 software and I want to update it to 0330. My device is 3V0035816E, hardware H22 and software 0270, Poland. I’ve found a “path” to 0324 form 0278 (0278 -> 0306 -> 0308 -> 0324) downloaded software for my device version:

Outback going, what next?

Aspman · yesterday at 11:231 day

After dropping a wodge on the Outback for a new battery only for the tailgate issues to immediately recur and funnily enough for a internet search to suddenly (wasn't before) flag that there is a persistent and long standing Subaru issue with a parasitic battery drain via the telematics module. Basically the car continually tries to phone home and drains the battery, the tailgate control module is acutely sensitive to voltage meaning that if the car has sat for more than a day (sometime less) th

How to improve steering feel

How to improve steering feel

CRB123 · 21 October, 20223 yr

Hi folks, I'm finding the steering feel of the Superb somewhat lifeless, vague and far too light. Looking for your help to see what I can do to improve it Having owned 3 other VAG's (2 x Golf R's and 1 x Golf Alltrack) I'm used to the lack of steering feedback however, the Superb is the worst so far. Drove my wife's Alltrack the other day and it was more direct than the Superb. Current handling mods are just Eibach lowering springs at the moment, and good tyr
