Hi everyone, I have a 2021 Skoda Kamiq and I'm looking for the correct firmware update path to fix some CarPlay connection issues. I've read that due to my older hardware, I might need an intermediate update before jumping to the latest version. Here are my system details: - Device part number: 654035869D - Hardware: 040 - Software: 1310 - SW Train: MEN3_EU_SK370_P0393L Could someone (maybe @pab567 ?) please share the correct download link(s) for the update path I need? I have attached screenshots of my system info. Thank you very much!

Honestly, I chose Graphite Grey because I thought it looks elegant on the Superb. It's L&K, a Combi / Estate so I didn't think anything bold would work for me. Those colours are better for the Sportline trim IMHO. Black is hard work to keep clean and we live in the Scottish Borders where mud, sheep and winter salt abound. Right now is potato harvest time so there seem like hundreds of tractors pulling trailers full of spuds! And each tractor spreads a portion of each field along the country roads. Black? No way! So grey it is. I am rather hoping to be semi-invisible, a bit like a Klingon cloaking device in Star Trek. Hardly noticed, not stolen to order. A refreshingly different ownership experience to our Velar with its retrofitted Ghost 2 immobiliser after a neighbour lost her Range Rover from her driveway. Every time we started the Velar up we had to enter the special code on the flappy paddles before engaging Drive. Forget and the engine would cut out, followed by what seemed like an elaborate reset process. The number of times we would forget to enter the code after filling up, or waiting in the queue for the cross-Channel ferry. Or we would receive a call from the franchise dealership asking for the code which we had forgotten to share with them. Mental load. Sometimes you don't realise how you gradually stack one layer on top of the next. Best wishes.

Hi Just bought a Fabia MK2 2008 with the BZG 1,2 liter 3 cylinder engine. I notice the oilconsumption is high. Its only done 120000 km and in good shape in general. i Read 0,5 liter / 1000 km is normal. Not sure if mine is more, still testing. Few questions 1 The oilstick has a marked area where the oil should be between min and max. Anyone have any idea how much "oil" it is between min and max? Feels like 0,5 liter at least. 2 Do you always test engine at normal running temp or cold? 3 If the consumption is higher then 0,5/1000 km, any idea what it could be on a low milage car like mine? Maybe do a compression test to check the piston rings and valves will give a somewhat story but was thinking if there is a classing problem with them? 4 My catalysator is smoked. Getting the 0420 error meaning cat efficiancy is too low. Also a crack on the manifold so need to change. I suspect someone has overfilled the engine maybe and damage the cat. Is this a common failure on a 1.2 liter engine? Incl the crack on the manifold?. I assume no idea to change until i figure out if the engine consume more then whats recommended Thanks guys

Firmware 0334 ist Last one for this HW

^^^ Perfect. Fixed Regime chart not accurate in all. But as far as Extended Scope the idea is @ first 3 years then each 2 years. As Brake Fluid used to be, but now they say each 2 years. Not all DSG are at 40,000 miles. Cambelts also changed advice.

I did upgrade my Superb this summer. I have no regrets. I made some mistakes so it got a lot more expensive than i tought but it was worth it for me.

For anyone that comes across this with a slightly newer model, I just followed these steps and fixed the heater element for the seat base on my 2016 Yeti and it all went smoothly. Some (minor) points to note : 1) The seat is heavy and bulky but definitely easier to get to everything if you take it right out. 2) I couldn't get to the spline nut behind the seat belt stalk to remove the seat-back but I found just removing the two lower ones (one each side) I could rock the base forward to create a gap and remove the old element and pass the new one's cable etc through easily enough. 3) The height adjustment lever seemed to have a little clip on the inside face that needed to be pressed in and then it slid off easily. 4) The rear-most connector in the floor under the seat (the small black one) was not at all clear how it came apart - keep fiddling and you will work it out! 5) Pressing the seat cover retainers into the C-clip was easy and didn't require helping hand. It took me two hours including tea breaks and occasional cursing - now I have a warm rear end after putting this job off for more than two years!

Our (daughter's) Kamiq is just coming up to 3yrs old too and dealer service manager said (by emai) that it's an oil lubrication service. Which I believe is literally just an oil and filter change and some basic safety checks (lights. horn etc). That's different to what the Skoda website says, which says at 3yrs/30K it should have a "Oil and inspection service with Extended scope". The first two services were included with the deal for the car and I'm sure I recall reading that they were just oil services, plus pollen filter at year 2. That would fit with what the website is saying for year 3. There's a quite ridiculous difference in price between the oil service and oil plus inspection. Especially bearing in mind the car will be MOT'd too, which is a pretty thorough going over. I'm annoyed to have to pay at all - slipped up really, should have had the car left on longlife servicing so it wouldn't even be due for its second service yet. Having said that, I'm not mad on the car not being looked at for 2yrs, and leaving oil in for 18,500 miles probably isn't a good idea.

I am due a bonus next month and seriously considering this upgrade. For those that have changed how do you find not having physical buttons? Is the improvements to the screen worth it? My wife’s kodiaq has MIB3 and I’m less keen on the touchscreen buttons. It’s quite a big cost if I’m not going to like it!

Keep getting the update repeats on the wife’s kodiaq. Hopefully they will get a proper update soon too

For 30 years, the modern-era Škoda Octavia has been the brand’s bestseller, with almost eight million units produced across four generations. The model’s versatility is also demonstrated by the wide range of versions developed for different purposes. Let us take a look back at some of the most interesting ones. https://www.skoda-storyboard.com/en/skoda-world/the-versatile-octavia-do-you-know-these-ones-too/ Experience a day full of classic cars and good cheer and join the 13th edition of the annual Škoda Classic Tour in an exclusive video. https://www.skoda-storyboard.com/en/skoda-world/skoda-classic-tour-through-the-eyes-of-a-spectator/

I selected these after going thru the Octavia VRS forums on FB and this was a popular choice. Firmer but bearable I would say. H+R and Eibach Pro were the most common springs alongside OE shocks, although the H+Rs seemingly do go a bit lower (especially at the rear) and are firmer than the Pro's.

I have had my car for about six months. Was getting bugged with the repeat updates that lately appeared every day. Today I have been offered a proper system update, hopefully that will get rid of the constant small updates. The files it's downloading is :- M013_EU_SKMQB_P33400P... 0/3602 MB. Fingers crossed it's improving it. Cheers Bart....

Read the Warranty. That is a Oil & Inspection Service. (Oil Change and look see.) The Warranty requires the Vehicle serviced to the Manufacturers Recommendations, Schedule or Regime. Well it left the factory on Variable / Flexible Oil Service regime. If changed to Fixed Oil & Filter Services that is when the Service or Oil Service or Inspection service shows. 9,400 miles / 372 days. The Fixed Service Regime is not Recommended, scheduled or advised untill some Tech / Fitter changed it to that.

Please let me know if you solve it. I changed dcc on warranty and that not helped. I also change both front arms, dual mass, silent block DSG - nothing helped

Message now come up on my dash for engine oil change, is this a service or just oil ?

I get this almost every time I get the car out, 'more info' tells you nothing and nothing happens if you select 'install', ps its a '23 Kamiq Right now its also telling me it wants an oil change, back to Arnold Clarks then

I always back off the accelerator once I’ve got some nice momentum going.

The gear number only ever shows when in sport mode, usually it just shows ‘D’ unless you have it in manual mode.

I’ve no idea about cylinder deactivation as unlike my previous Karoq there’s no symbol to say if it’s active or not on my Scala dash.

If you use the back button it takes you back to an Enyaq update, so that procedure may be EV specific. Same update message is appearing in our Karoq (and probably other Skoda models too). One user is reported that his car has updated now: https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/541069-constant-app-updates/

The link for the exact one I got is dead but I think this is the newer version of it. https://a.aliexpress.com/_Ex5BdpG

Worth checking out until help comes along.

I might try one of the ali express ones.
