My steering noise was audible the moment I inch and turn out of the parking lot. But till now still waiting for the part to arrive, more than a month already. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they debate it happens just that the problem cannot be reproduce yesterday so they cannot do much too.. Intermittent problem the most headache.. That's why i hate modern cars with so many electronics.. If totally failed yes diagnostic tools very helpful to pinpoint.. I was an engineer before and had spend countless days to troubleshoot intermittent fault.. not easy. Anyway I dunno is covid or wat.. When collecting the car only see receptionist "Err no payment required, car parked at lot x".. I think can do more right? Can't solve is one thing.. I go my third party workshop they will still bother to explain what they did, walk me through the details, or suggest what is the next course of action etc.. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect they know they will not be seeing again soon after.. Just like a bus driver, who would bother greeting you ot try to know you better. Would that take up more time and cause the customer to think that they can keep coming back for more adhoc services?

MorningStar Neutral Newbie August 24, 2021 Share August 24, 2021 Hi guys, Need some recommendations for lowered springs on a Superb MK3 (non-dcc). Eibach kit seems abit much lowering by 35mm. Any other decent ones to look at? Changed 17'' stock to 18' on my superb but 4 finger gap looks weird. Found that the suspension has always been on the bouncy side as well.

The physical switch i believe ok.. so i guess is some "brain" not working. Wondering they running on CANBUS.. or what could be the issues.. 3 years old coming.. received letter to enroll in their service plan...mmmmmmmm... Skoda really SMART.. problem surface near end of third year! whahahahahaha.. Next thursday going for last FREE servicing.. @Ody_2004 Did you recently tint the top portion of your windscreen where the photosensor for the headlights are? Also there is one more sensor on the centre of the dash near the centre speaker grille, check it is not blocked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

minion 4th Gear August 28, 2021 Share August 28, 2021 Where do Skoda owners usually go for servicing after first 3 free service? my car will be due for the 60km service in 1 or 2 months. This package was from Skoda Centre that time when I did my third service, which costs 2.2k. Price is OK? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotr 6th Gear August 28, 2021 Share August 28, 2021 (edited) @minion Might be worth checking how much all these costs outside. Most are basic servicing work so I think the savings could be significant. Edited August 28, 2021 by Lotr 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic August 28, 2021 Share August 28, 2021 If it includes the extended warranty that covers AC system, autotrans, engine oil leaks, than it is worthwhile. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
