There is no misfire or anything related ofcourse.
Thoughts pls?

The most obvious symptom of a bad set of spark plugs would be deteriorating fuel economy. If thats the case, change it. Otherwise do it at 60K km.

I did replace the plugs. I have been mostly accustomed seeing 8 km/L within the city. Same stretches of road, with similar traffic, is now giving me 10 km/L.

So definitely would like to call this out, incase anyone else is in a similar dilemma as I was.

Looking for some advice from fellow Superb owners: has anyone upsized their wheels to 18" (with 235 section tyres) from the stock 17" (with 215 section tyres)? If yes, what differences have you noticed with the ride and handling?

Folks, unlike say an X1, the Superb doesn't really absorb the pot holes in our cities. Have any of you switched the shock absorbers of your car ? Or can the OEM one be tuned to absorb better ? I've dropped the PSI to 30 hoping for a smoother ride but in vain.

Hi, sometimes for these German cars sticking to the OE recommended pressures gives the best ride. Lowering pressure sometimes can make the ride worse. As far as the shock absorbers are concerned depends on how much you have driven the car and over particularly bad roads, they may be worn out and may need replacing. In most cases you will not find a softer one than the OE shocks in the after market. The performance ones like Bilsteins are only more stiffer for a sportier ride.

For my MY2018 Superb, earlier the following apps used to work:
* MySkoda India
* MySkoda EU
* SkodaOne app -> replaced by Skoda Connect (which though I had received email in ~2021 saying would work on my car, it doesn't for past few years)
* Skoda Media Command (Boss Connect/WLAN radio)

Over time, other apps like MySkoda EU, MySkoda Plus all don't work saying Vehicle (VIN) is not supported.

MySkoda India is also not working for past ~2 years. It doesn't allow login, nor "Forgot password" etc. So, one can't look at the service history of the car, or the India Superb's manual or service calculator from app.

It really poor for Skoda to remove all app support for older Superb MY, especially as BossConnect and WLAN were one of the features advertised on MY2018.
Anybody had luck enabling one of these for older Superbs say 2020 and earlier ?
Thanks
