Yes, I should have said flick it down again instead of up.

Finally got a chance to do what you asked. Drove down a steep hill, stopped with full pressure on the brake pedal, stop/start did not work. Into reverse, foot off the brake, after a couple of seconds car reverses on idling speed. I then accelerated a few yards and stopped with full brake pressure, s/s did not work. Did the same thing again, but this time as soon as I selected reverse I went from brake to accelerator and car moved backwards straight away. Again after stopping s/s did not work. On a level road, driving forwards and stopping s/s worked. Reversing and stopping s/s did not work. Hope this is some help to you.

With the selector in D, flicking the selector down will put it into sports mode, flicking it back up will put it back into whatever mode had been selected. For manual shifting, in the D position, move the selector to the left and then flick the selector down to downshift or up to upshift. The middle display on the instrument panel will tell you which gear you're in. Move the selector to the right to go back to auto mode.

This is what I have.

Does it do it in all modes?

4th comment says there is no relay.

I did. The ironic thing is, because I needed to use the car the following day, if it didn't start, I wouldn't have time to get the battery changed, so in anticipation I bought booster jump battery😩. I guess that will get used someday.

Sorry, I can't help you there, but I'm sure someone will be able to

No. What I mean is, whether the dealer changed it from the original battery fitted from the factory.

Mine has hillhold, nothing in menu options to turn it off. But why would you? It's a useful function especially with an auto and using s/s

As I said in an earlier post, car was bought at 6 months old as an ex demo, so don't know if the battery is original.

TBH I can't tell you. It's been so long since I've done an uphill parking manoeuvre. If I remember I'll try and do one and let you know

It's likely mine is as well. As I bought it as an ex-demo at 6 months I can't be sure.

Ok, I thought he misunderstood my question.

Ok, I thought they all had s/s. i guess that would add to your problem . I don't have the problem of the clutch disengaging. I use s/s all the time. I do agree it's sometimes difficult to control the speed when reversing uphill into a parking space. I resort to a two pedal operation in that situation.

Started the car today after 3.5 months. Original battery made in Jan 2013. Really unexpected, hence my vocal "oh no" VID20250224141307 (1) (1) (1) (1) (1).mp4

No, that wasn't my question. OP wants to reduce the brightness, Is there a minimum brightness by law?

Is there a minimum brightness by law?

You have stop/start turned off?

Are using a Mac or PC? A Mac can add other files which have to removed according to some posters on this topic.

That's interesting to know. Mine was bought as an ex demo at 6 months old from a Skoda dealer and came with a Varta battery which is still fitted. Would it have been changed within the 1st 6 months?

Has s/s ever worked since you bought the car?

When the battery is disconnected, what's the voltage then?
