Hi,
I'm not yet a Skoda owner but hoping to get a used Superb Estate to replace a Volvo V70 that has just died.

The forum has been a great help so far and is a big incentive to go for a Skoda.

I'm planning to tow a Drascombe Coaster sailing boat (also chosen partly because there was an active forum) and have some questions regarding towbars which I'll raise in the relevant places.

Welcome Chris. Good choice with the massive boot space they have.

Hope you find one to your liking 👍

Hello Chris

I was looking for another Superb just over a year ago. Didn’t find the one for me at the time, and ended up getting a V70 (D3) instead. It’s a great car.

Which I happen to have driven up to Edinburgh just a few weeks ago 😎

1.6 tdi cam belt and dual mass flywheel query

jtj321 · 6 hours ago6 hr

Hi again Hoping for some more good advice! Cam belt is at 40K ,5 years approx. I know there is a lot of controversy around timings of cam belt changes,and it seems the precautionary principle is the main view.Expensive principle but fair enough.I was having the belt changed because I could occasionally here a low rumble at tick over. Thinking tensioner pulley or something potentially very nasty. However,the rumble disappears when the clutch is pressed,and on my VW T4 I was told a new dual mass

Insurance for a low-mileage Mk2 Octavia 1.9 TDI PD (BJB) - Specialist/Enthusiast advice needed

Outdoorsman · Thursday at 15:492 days

Hi everyone, I’m a relatively new member here but I’ve been maintaining my 2004 Skoda Octavia Mk2 (1.9 TDI PD) as a "time capsule" with only 21,000 miles. It’s my only car, used for social/domestic/pleasure, and I’m looking for some advice on insuring it as an enthusiast/modern classic. The car has been professionally rust-proofed/Dynaxed by BAS Cherished Cars and has an OEM cruise control retrofit. I am also planning a software-only "hot start" fix via a local specialist before my August rene

2017 L&K Hatchback tailgate issue
Skoda Superb Mk3 (2015 - 2023)

2017 L&K Hatchback tailgate issue

Smudger2 · 23 hours ago23 hr

Hi, I've got a weird powered tailgate issue on my Superb. If I press the interior button I can hear the lock release, but nothing happens after. If I press the button on the outside of the boot, the lock releases but nothing happens. If I press that button a few more times, I will eventually start rising but only to about half way. If I press the outside button again, it'll drop back down again but I have to press down on the boot to get it to do the final catch. The button on the inside o

Thoughts on buying a 2007 2.0 PD TDI (auto) Octavia estate?

smokeyjon · Wednesday at 21:092 days

Hi. I know there's a 'considering buying' forum but this is about an oldie so I thought this may be a better place to post...(a query for the long committed fans?)? I already have a 2005 Octavia Estate (1.9TDI PD105) and it is by a country mile the BEST car I have EVER owned. I bought it in 2013 for <£2.5k and apart from needing to do the clutch straight away it hasn't needed much over the 80k miles I've done in it since. However it is close to 180k miles now, the clutch is juddering and
