Our Kamiq was a bit late for its second service as the dealers leadtime was bonkers. Dealer assured us it'd be fine (famous last words). However if the car was on longlife servicing then it could go 2yrs between services (18500 miles) so I don't see why it should be problem. I suppose, as the first service is basically just an oil change and the second is a more extended inspection, then they might say the inspection is overdue.

Hello vRS WRC fans. I want to buy a new white carpet. Is it still possible to buy a new one in England? What is the part number? I have 65/100. Thank you very much

There is three trips. Since refuel. Since start (which seems more like a "today" trip and then long term. The long term can be reset by the driver. I wondered the same thing myself when I set off for holiday a couple of weeks ago.

Hello vRS WRC fans. I want to buy a new white center carpet. Do you know the part number? Is it still available in England? I own a 65/100. Thank you very much.

Hi, please, I need new white carpet. What is the part number? Is it still available in England? I have the number 65/100

Are you ordering in the UK? The configurator you showed is German - as another poster said, I don't think elec seats are available in UK and they're not showing in the UK configurator.

Caffyns were actually very helpful and investigated and submitted a warranty claim. Skoda's reply was "it's not corrosion" so claim dismissed! Baffling. What is rust if it is not corrosion? I have now had to contact Skoda direct. Aaaargh!

Does the 2026 L&K superb have a trip odometer? I mean, a mileage counter that you can zero say at the start of a holiday and then read off the total distance travelled 2 weeks later? Looked in the digital and hard copy manual and found nothing. My 2017 model had a physical button you could press that did this, but the new car ...

Not found if the Alpine 290 is getting the same upgrades the R5 in the aero and battery department but it should see a few more miles range. I would be keen to try both the upgrade R5s and the upgrade Scenics, would avoid even more of the public charges. Just hope they come to the UK as we do get a restricted list of Renault and I would presume other marques too. https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/renault/5/370305/updated-renault-5-offers-more-range-more-google-tech-and-even-more-style https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/renault/scenic/370350/new-renault-scenic-embarrasses-tesla-model-y-range-again New 67 Kwh Scenic should be well under £30k for a very roomy car and have the LFP charging to 100% being no worries.

Sadly I doubt that I will be able to get a used new Range Rover EV even if they end up discounted or depreciated by 90%.

I also finally got Skoda to put on a genuine towbar for me. After unrelated customer service issues I got the retractable towbar for £1,500 rather than the original £2,000 quote! Not great as like everyone else I already had paid for a third party towbar. I can also confirm the car now tows great, no issues with the cars stupid safety features and can reverse without it having a hissy fit. And as mentioned the button release is convenient. I do wonder how long the dropping mechanism of the towbar will last before it starts to corrode and get stuck. Thinking about looking to make a plastic cover to fill in the gap in the under tray to at least stop most of the crud and salt getting to it.

No unfortunately not. Is it a new dataset required? There is a guy with odis at a local garage that I can go to if needed. Perhaps you could connect through him or provide dataset for him to load. I will try the other module I have ordered from eBay and if not will have to look at getting it trying the above!

Before Skoda UK would Authorise the repair to our vehicle under the 12 year anti-corrosion warranty they ensured that we had full service history including having had all the extended scope inspections carried out

I am pleased to say this matter has now been resolved for me. It appears there are now TWO genuine Skoda towbars available: a manually REMOVABLE towbar and an electric FOLDABLE towbar. Following my formal complaint, I was quoted £470 and £800 respectively for these two options, including installation and VAT. I realise these were very reasonable prices considering the other posts here. I was initially considering the cheaper DETACHABLE towbar and looked in detail at the installation guide. This Skoda towbar appeared almost identical to the Westfalia detachable towbar I had fitted already. It seemed rediculous to replace one towbar with another which was exactly the same and pay £470 for the privilege! However I recognised that the Skoda electrics may be different and in fact be the only ones the car would recognise. I queried this and asked if the Skoda electrics could be fitted to my existing Westfalia towbar? I was given a price of £259 for fitting the Skoda electrics only, with the proviso that the outcome could not be guaranteed, as it comprised a combination of genuine Skoda and third party products. In the end I opted for the more expensive FOLDABLE Skoda towbar, as at least I would be getting more functionality for my money. This was fitted in a day by my local Skoda dealer and is indeed a very good product, as described scotjimland1. I have towed for over 100 miles and the Proactive Occupant Protection System hasn't fired once. The car's software clearly recognises a trailer is attached and adjusts the car's safety systems accordingly. I can reverse without the rear parking sensors or rear automatic emergency braking activating. The maximum allowed road speed shows both the maximum for the road and the reduced limit for vehicles with trailers (e.g. 70 mph and 60 mph with a trailer icon). I expect these software changes work the same way with the DETACHABLE Skoda towbar. The FOLDABLE towbar is released with a very neat switch in the boot which matches other switches on the vehicle. Although this solution has cost me money to resolve what is really Skoda's problem, I concluded it was the best option in the circumstances to allow me to get on and enjoy caravanning again.

@jeffl Coasting is more intrusive on the facelift models which this is. It’s in all preset profiles rather than just Eco. The only way to avoid it is to have the individual profile setting for drive mode to sport and then gearbox will be in S so you need to then change it if OP didn’t want to be. Also in facelift cars, it always starts in Normal profile rather than remembering which profile you were in. So every time you get in the car you need to switch profile and then knock the gearstick back to be in Normal (if so desired).

Make & Model: Fabia Mk2 2011 1.2TSI DSG Colour: Blue Mileage: 67,737 miles Price: £1500 Description: Really well kept 2011 1.2TSI Fabia with the elegance trim. Only 67,737 miles on the clock. Has had a replacement reconditioned engine due to timing chain failure, and has now sadly got the flashing gear indicator, believe the mechatronic has gone. Broke down and has been recovered to my parents driveway. It is in generally good condition, few cosmetic marks to the paint. It has had APR coilovers fitted by Coastal Racing, setup beautifully - sits about 30mm lower than standard, and handles lovely. Currently SORN, valid MOT until November. Would make a really great project for someone, and very sad to see this car go, but have now replaced it with a Kamiq, so at least staying in the Skoda family. Condition: Non Runner Service History/Receipts/Recent Service work: Some service history, but over the last few years took to servicing myself, doing regular oil change, air/cabin filter. Not long since had a new coil pack installed. HT leads have been swapped out Extras: Elegance/SE Trim (Records show SE but spec Is elegance I believe) Mods: AP coilovers done by Coastal Racing, also got a 510 Headunit I can swap in if desired. Shipping: Must have transport Collection: Yes, transport required, located between Lancaster and Preston Pictures:

I have ordered a 5QA919294B from a Diesel in the hope that the dataset is plug and play!

Hi Keith, You have double-checked they will fit your car? If so, great. I can send via Evri. Cost will be around £6 I think. You can pay on PayPal? Let me know if that works for you. Cheers… Rob

As long as it's a Skoda.... Quite a few second hand Vag European cars get shipped to the Middle East where after changing the FeCs to the car brand they would come unstuck, but using the list above you'd get it working. Some Australians have actually imported European mib2 highs from retrofitters. I've advised them to use that Github patch software to get the RoW FeCs in. North Africa isn't served by mib2 high maps, mib2 standard it is, mib3 it is. That one comes up quite a bit as European secondhand Vag cars find their way to Africa. Think your slow download will be since you haven't got fibre to the home. Infrastructure problem 😟. It will arrive in NZ pretty fast at fibre speeds. I have had it all here from 300MBs in London to crawling rural wireless broadband of 30. Networked out from church roofs etc (for runner of wireless 4g) to full fibre to property at 900 MBs. Surprising knock on the door asking whether they could take some branches down at the bottom of the garden. Ours comes underground apart from collapsed ducting, camera down, washing up liquid and digging out to push it further along. Didn't help that the existing cable showed no entry point into the house. The house was built on it. Broken some installation rules. Chiseling on the foot of the house wall by the installation guys found a piece of BT plastic, then the phone cable and tube. Damp and radon gas can come why termination is suppose to outside the house... pass on whether radon gas getting into houses is an issue in NZ. Basically rural Wales has useless 4g in the main so I don't expect if I had a connected car it would not get updates. Some connected car users use Internet radio.... another dead end for us rural folk. What would we do without full fibre to the property 😍 Do you want to photograph your success screen so MartiniB can use it.

Hello everyone, I've finally made it onto Briskoda! I'm a big fan of everything related to the Skoda brand, so I figured it was time to officially join the community. Aside from my passion for cars, in my spare time I also run an audio code recovery platform for car stereos (including VAG/Skoda units). So, if any of you ever run into issues with a locked radio or navigation system code, feel free to reach out. Glad to be here and see you around the forums!

Hi. I have installed all the parts now and done the coding I believe is right, but fear I may have a couple of issues. It looks like I might have a wiring issue with a couple of sensors showing a short. I have extended the loom so may be my dodgy wiring. Also looks like it’s looking for rear cross traffic alert and ev motor. So I think dataset is wrong on module. (It was from a 1.4 hybrid) not sure if this can recoded or I need a different module. Any help gratefully received. I use carscanner rather than vcds hence the difference in format. 10.

Hi everyone, I am writing this post hoping someone here has already dealt with (and fixed) this nightmare on their Škoda Yeti. My panoramic sunroof is completely stuck. Whenever I try to operate it, I hear a loud grinding/crunching noise, as if the motor gear is slipping over the drive cables. Unfortunately, the glass is currently stuck in the partially open position but its missaligned (one side is lower then the other). If anyone has any guides, photos, or practical tips, it would be an absolute lifesaver. Thank you so much in advance for your help!
