The fault

How you spot it

On the early 2015 to 2016 cars with the MIB2 head unit the screen stops at the brand logo, the unit restarts on its own, the navigation is inaccurate, or the sound goes completely silent.

Used car surveys find a significant part of the faults on diesel Superbs around the navigation, the infotainment and the electrical systems.

How we know

Information, not an expert opinion

We write the descriptions, and we put the source next to them. A person reviews them before they go out. They are still information, not a technical expert opinion.

  • A fault on the list does not mean the car you are looking at has it.
  • A fault missing from the list does not mean the model is fault-free. Write-ups are made model by model. Not all of them are done.
  • You decide whether to buy. This is no substitute for an inspection. That needs a workshop and a history check.
