Thermostat?

Hi all,

My my56 vrs diesel is taking a bit longer than normal to warm up right now and also the wife reports the coolant light coming on now and again when the coolant is up to the max line.

My first thoughts are thermostat being sticky/faulty and this causing odd readings to the sensor making the light come on. Could this be right?

Scout Aftermarket Suspension

fr1nklyn · 8 August, 20232 yr

I've done some research on the higher and stiffer shock absorbers and coil springs which Skoda offers on Scout models and found their aftermarket analogues: * Front Shocks: Bilstein B4 #22-274182 * Front Springs: ??? * Rear Shocks: Bilstein B4 #19-274195 * Rear Springs: SACHS 992 103 (analogue of OEM #5Q0511115AM) My queries are: 1/ What are the higher and stiffer front springs OEM numbers? 2/ Are there good aftermarket alternatives for the same? 3/ Is there better rear

Front assist failure

Front assist failure

RevM · Thursday at 14:545 days

My 2021 Skoda Superb iV estate has thrown up a woanring light and a message 'front assist failure'. As a result the ACC is not working. I have checked and cleaned the areas where I think the sensor lives but it has not helped. It did the same thing a year or so ago and after a few weeks it all started working again. Also the SOS light comes on sometimes. What can I do?

Hi all, Currently looking to upgrade from a 2021 fiesta(!) to a used family sized car.

We’ve waited until moving from the city to the countryside to trade up. Current set up is 2 6ft adults, 2.5 year old and a medium sized dog. We are not tidy people and

Full Matrix Led headlights on motorway

Rafal78 · 23 January, 20242 yr

Ok, Matrix Leds are fantastic. When driving on A or B class roads they working perfect, illuminates both sides of the road and cuts out cars at the front or oncoming traffic. I've never been flashed. When I tried to use them on motorway it's a different story. Right headlamp is illuminating as expected but left one doesn't illuminate side of the road but only gives a lot of light far at the front of the car.. I recently followed Audi Q7 with matrix leds and his headlights gave massiv
