Aftermarket reversing camera for new Octavias - do they exist?
At the start of the month I got a 21 reg Octavia vRS iV and wanted a reversing camera. Found a thread on here where someone mentioned Autologics, I booked online and they came out and fitted the camera last Wednesday. I can recommend them https://www.autologics.co.uk/Skoda-Retrofit-Specialist/Skoda-Reverse-Camera/Skoda-octavia-4-Reverse-camera It's a replacement boot handle which incorporates the camera. It took them about an hour from start to finish.

condensation on inside of windows, takes ages to clear even with aircon
Thank you. I've got one dehumidifier pad like that, will get another. I cleaned the windscreen today with autoglym glass cleaner and synthetic chamois (I'd forgotten that was in the car).

Thanks, J.R. I've cleaned the inside of the windscreen with Autoglym glass cleaner this morning

Thanks Bazz2004 I've cleaned the inside of the windscreen this morning with autglym glass cleaner and used an artificial chamois type cloth to thoroughly dry it. I will dry out my moisture absorbing pouch (it's one of those you microwave or dry in the oven) and put that near the windscreen.

Thanks, AG Falco. My roof is panoramic but it doesn't open, it's just a fixed glass roof - it's nice to have the extra light inside.

Thankyou AG Falco I very rarely put the air in recirculaton mode (only when I'm behind a smoky diesel) I do have a couple of those damp absorbing bags on the back parcel shelf (the back window still mists up) I'll try giving the windscreen a thorough cleaning but in the Octavia there was never an issue, maybe the aircon in the Fabia just isn't as efficient.

I have a 2024 Fabia Mk4 (picked it up in June) and during the summer the aircon was fine, kept the car nice and cool. Now whenever its cold outside the windows fog up even with the aircon (climate control) always on. I've even put a couple of damp traps on the floor to see if they collect any water, nothing in them so far. I previously had a 2017 Octavia and never had issues with condensation inside. The Fabia has a panoramic roof, I don't know if that makes a difference, obviously it gets colder inside (because the glass is cold) but I wouldn't have thought the windscreem would fog up. Has anyone else had the same issue.

Lane assist
@Shempy Do you mean that you don't have to disable it every time you get in and start the car ? I find it annoying, even scary, when lane assist tries to take control of the steering so I've been disabling it when I get in but it would be good to get it turned off completely. I'm guessing it could void warranty, though, to tamper with OBD ?
