Superb MK4 brake pedal moves on its own on parked car

Featured Replies

Hello,

I am driving Superb MK4 (2024) for around 6 months and I have noticed that when I approach the car and unlock it, the brake pedal starts to go down and up (maybe 2-3 times as it moves quit fast and the sound is loud). This happens every time that I approach the car, it does not matter if the car has been parked for an hour or a day.

I have also test if the brake pedal goes down and up even when the car is unlocked but not started and it does. It is doing it in every 10-15 minutes while the car is parked and the engine is not running, but it does it only if the key is near the car, so I would assume that this is expected, but I am not sure why.

So far I do not have issues while driving, but I am not sure if this is some indicator and the breaking system needs to be checked for some issues.

I ask the local Skoda dealership/authorized service, but they have told me that they need to check the test drives once if they can see the same behavior, but they think that this is normal and expected.

As I had some issues with the local dealership/service while trying to find an issues with the 360 deg cameras and now I do not believe them that much, so if someone has seen the same behavior it will be great if their local service have provided some information regarding this.

I know that the model is quit new and as every new model it has some bugs that will be fixed in the time, but as I have never had Skoda so far and none of the people that drive Skoda around me have seen the same behavior on their cars (previous Super and Octavia models or the new Kodiaq, Kamia and Karoq) and as I do not have anyone who drives the new Superb, I cannot ask if they observe the same behavior of the brake pedal.

Thanks in advance.
