When did your engine loosen up?

In the (very) olden days you were told to run it in gently until 600 miles then thrash it to the limiter for a few minutes - supposed to stop the cylinder bores glazing. Whatever that is or however bad it is. Any old timers wish to comment?

2014 Octavia Estate - Degrading plastic/rubber trip on rear windows - Solutions

Plantman · 46 minutes ago46 min

Hi all, does anyone have any ideas on how to repair/fix the weird mottling on the rear windows on the Octavia Estate? It looks like it was most likely sun damage after a product was applied perhaps. I presume the only remedial action is a bit of a cutting compound to even the surface? I've tried a few products for rubber and plastic care but apart from hiding it in a greasy film it never fully resolves it. Cheers!

Front assist failure

Front assist failure

RevM · 1 hour ago1 hr

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?

Lane assist coding with Car Scanner for Superb FL 2019

Rafal78 · Tuesday at 21:111 day

Hi guys. I tried to code lane assist for my 2019 SUPERB FL using Icar pro Vgate and car scanner pro. Lane assist is showing on dashboard and in the options but it doesn't work. The icon is yellow, car displays message that it is not currently available. What did I miss... A5 camera is 2Q0980653. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks! Maybe there is someone with Obd11 in Shrewsbury area wilkingvto help if car scanner can't perform this coding?
