I have a 2010 fl octavia estate and the head unit measures 255x235x130. I am looking for an android unit to replace my stock unit. All the units that claim to fit my car are 220x210x130 are there any suppliers of the right size unit that are worth having. Or is there a facia adaptor available.

sat nav mph and speedo mph quite different
63rub replied to 63rub's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I have checked my tyre size again and they are actually 205 55 16, my bad on the earlier post. and I have compared the speedo with a military sat nav with external transmiter / receiver. now that I know everyone is getting similar readings my question is now answered, thanks everyone. -

2010 octavia 1.8tsi dsg7 when driving my satnav will say 70mph and my speedo says about 76 at 30 speedo says about 35 I am on factory 16 x 6.5 inch wheels with 205 50 16 toyo t1r I have now tried three different sat navs now and i still get the same readings. i am beginning to think that they may be the wrong wheels, but I'm not sure how to find out for sure I didn't buy the car new so I don't know if they were changed at some point. is thre a code no to look for or can vcds tell what the speedo is calibrated for? -
Aux Port Not working....any ideas?
63rub replied to rawcas's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
If you have mdi port with a device pluged in the aux port wont work until you unplug the mdi device. I had this problem and once I removed my data stick from the mdi cable my aux port worked again. -
Are there any recommended dab adapter units that will interface with the bolero head unit, I don't need bluetooth as I already have a bury ad9060. I just want more radio options without breaking the bank.

removed glovebox now have airbag light on
63rub replied to 63rub's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I have checked plug and it's ok. I needed the battery connected to power the bluetooth unit. -
I removed the glovebox to install bury bluetooth unit. I disconnected the key operated airbag switch in the glovebox I started the car to check the bluetooth was working and the airbag light came on, and now it's back together the light remains on and maxidot says "fault airbag". 2010 fl octavia estate 1.8tsi dsg 7speed. does this just need to be reset or is it more difficult.

DSG Recall (sorry...service campaign)
63rub replied to DadWagon's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I payed a visit to my local dealer Sparshats Botley and they put my vin number into the computer and said that my car was up for recall to have the oil in the gearbox replaced. He asked me to book it in and they would sort it out. -
I pluged in my hdd vis mdi and it says device not recognised. the head unit is bolero and the hdd only has mp3 files, nothing else. is there some special format for hdd before it can be used as an mp3 player or do hdd just not work at all. its a 2010 octy fl with bolero hu.
