Mine's a 2013 with DAB

Why are you worrying about this now? Another 2 weeks and it will be April.

Doing an oil change yourself. Won't that invalidate the warranty?

Note to self. Unplug charging cables in future🙂

As you've used the car for the last few days without any problems, presumably the battery is being charged. Try putting in the old battery and see what happens. If you get the same fault(s) then you have more info to give readers here or an auto electrician.

Ok thanks

Was it changed at the 5 year interval as recommended by Skoda UK?

Mines an early model and doesn't do this. Later models do. There are some threads on the subject.

Find out if a manual dipping mirror can be fitted.

Would have cost a fortune at a dealers workshop. Diagnosis charge, then probably told you need a complete new unit.

I didn't know the siren had its own battery. This looks promising I can only speak from experience with my own car that starting it after 2 or 3 months is not a problem.

The doors won't unlock with the remote until the battery is re-connected. Before disconnecting the battery, have the bonnet open, lock the car with the remote, disconnect the battery but don't secure the bonnet completely. Re- connect the battery when you're ready and unlock with the remote. If the battery is flat you can unlock the drivers door with the emergency lock in the door handle.

Agree 100% about the car starting after 2 months storage. Mine regularly stands for 2 or 3 months without being used and always starts. That's with the original nearly 9 yr old battery.

Did you or a passenger take the photo?

Still won't play for me. Can others play it?

I can't get it to play

OP says it's not water as it's not evaporating.

Post a file of the noise.
