The bonnet release handle has been mentioned on this forum. It's flexible enough to be pulled out slightly to clear the speaker.

Windows need the ignition on.

It was 10 yrs old in January going by the mfg code. Car was registered in Mar 2013 and I bought it as an ex demo in Sept 2013. Its always had long periods of discharge of between 3 to 4 months and has always had enough power to start up. Start stop has always been used. These days, because I know I'm on borrowed time with it and hardly using the car, I'll start it up after about 6 weeks and run around for an hour or so. I can't use a charger without taking the battery out. My previous 2005 Octavia 1.6 petrol had exactly the same treatment and the battery was ok at 8.5 yrs old when I sold it.

If you can get a charge to the battery by connecting to the stater motor, can you then get something long to reach the central locking button?

Please ignore this post.

Is this a recent thing you've noticed or has it always had this type of fuel consumption?

Did it cure the s/s fault?

Speed is not the issue here. OP was only doing 30mph and it was a momentary lapse of observation that caused the problem.

.

One fuse serves both sockets.

Does it go away when you turn off the ventilation system?

Just hold down the unlock button and all 4 windows will open for as long as you press the button. Do the same with the lock button to close them. I think there is an option in settings to enable this feature.

Can you open the window using the key fob remote?

A comment on page 2 gives the part no's for the modified seals for the front doors.

Can you make out any part no's?

I'll agree on your 1st point, but lagging? not in my experience.

It's what you get used to. I use the selector exactly as toot does. I'm just happy that moving from P to D is a straight line and not one of those gated selectors.

Try and scan for a fault code with vcd's or similar. Something is very wrong. If its been standing for 5 hours the fan shouldn't come on randomly. Maybe the battery is failing and confusing the system.

You HAVE to use a genuine Skoda sd card which has built in files to operate the system. An ordinary sd card will not work. If you bought it from a dealer you need to raise it with them that no card was supplied.

Does it do with the car not moving and the revs at 2000?

If you are not the first owner, maybe the previous owner had the bag removed.

There are Youtube videos

As you already have a genuine card, just back up the data, (in case there is a problem) delete or re-format the card and load the new update onto it.
