That looks like a Turini, 7.5Jx18 ET51 and normally fitted with 225x40xR18 tyres. Plenty of images on google For example:

There is this one: https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/5e5955711b-windscreen-wiper-motor-21876.html ?

As in you're trying to get the state of charge (SoC) by pressing the trip button? Pretty sure your car is too new for that, it worked on older cars but I think it was dropped around 2016... You'll need a car battery tester if you want to get a better idea of battery health.

I'd guess at 1Z0 858 069 CJ DG2: https://archiwum.allegro.pl/oferta/ramka-radia-octavia-ii-1z0858069cjdg2-orginal-i3638634748.html It might be something you'd need to order at a dealer unless you can find a used one on eBay or a breakers... Double check the part number before buying as there are quite a few versions: https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/octavia/oct/2012-663/8/857-857020/#11

That's an LED so it's not replicable as far as I know...

These two posts suggest it won't work I'm afraid: - https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/317613-rear-view-camera/?do=findComment&comment=4612975 - https://octavia.team/temat/161-kamera-cofania/?do=findComment&comment=28953

I mentioned him in the thread so he should get a notification and hopefully reply

If I remember correctly, some units don't have the video hardware to take any input signal to display on screen. Some Google hits seem to suggest your head unit supports it but I can't find anything to be 100% sure 🤷‍♂️ Pab knows plenty about MIB units so can hopefully confirm either way...

At a guess, it might be 1Z0 858 069 AC BE9 that you need... You should double check it matches before buying though

@pab567 - do you have any idea if 5E0035819A support a reversing camera?

Can you add some detail? An autoscan from VCDS and what camera (highline/lowline) you installed would be a good starting point

Then as far as I know, it'll have the same suspension as a standard vRS If it's on 19" alloys, they can compromise the ride quality. Tyre choice can also effect it too.

I don't think 7zap covers newer models yet. Random example autoscan of an Octavia with a DGTE so it's certainly plausible: https://forums.ross-tech.com/index.php?threads/19983/

Is this a British car? Not sure about NI but for the rest of the UK, I would expect a Challenge spec car to have DCC... Given your car doesn't have a 'comfort' setting it's unlikely to have DCC. Without DCC, I'd expect all VRS to have the same suspension with obvious differences for TSI/TDI, hatchback/estate etc.

Maybe find a decent independent with the right kit for calibration. Just for example: https://www.vw-retrofit.co.uk/product/front-radar-calibration-service/ It's not 'super' cheap but much better than a dealer. The kit to do the calibration isn't cheap and it can take a while to set up so it's not surprising it's expensive. Hopefully in time it'll get cheaper

Pretty sure the Challenge gets DCC as standard, have you tried changing the driving mode to comfort or normal? Oh - and maybe check the tyre pressures too

Ross-tech added S12345 as a special login to allow engineering mode on certain 5F units It's mentioned in the thread I linked

Even if you use S12345 for the login/security code? Slightly different headunit: https://forums.ross-tech.com/index.php?threads/13478/

Then try one of the other methods? 👍

It's normally on a sticker in the boot area. You can also get it from the build-data sheet from Skoda. Otherwise, a scan with VCDS or similar should show it.

Looks to be covered here from about 1:50 onwards:

My 245 vRS gets probably ~400 miles to a tank. Long term average is 37.6 MPG but that'll just depend how you drive it

You might want to add that info to the thread linked below and see if Pab has anything for you. At a guess, there is a 0480 update

VCDS can't change the steering curve on a MQB platform car. The steering curve(s) are now in a parameter file that needs flashing onto the steering rack. You'd need a tool such as ODIS-e or VCP to upload a new one

You might want to try some google translate on this webpage: https://www.drive2.com/l/573969809784439237/ Not something I've tried as my headunit is already 04xx so it's completely at your own risk
