Has anyone else adjusted the hill start assist and then found it doesn't work at all?

[OBDeleven]

I have gone to use OBDeleven this morning & I am being asked to buy credits despite having PRO. I have emailed OBDeleven will await their reply

Pro doesn't give you credits, you need to go into 'adaptations' and make adjustments from there, no need for credits.

[How do I turn the ruddy radio off.]

Its turns off with the ignition unless you turn it back on with the ignition off. Have you tried putting it in media or aux and not playing anything?

[OBDeleven]

so what about something like high beam assist which is a factory option but can also be enabled subsequently by obd11/vcds?

if someone has this from the factory then has a firmware update by skoda after a service surely it doesn't wipe it?

I would guess that the reset at service is to the default for that car, i.e. If it was an official option it will stay

They are high pressure jets, they work off the front screen wash stalk, as long as your washer fluid isn't low.

[Travel mug]

I can confirm that the Thermos Stainless Steel King mug/tumbler fits perfectly in the holders next to the handbrake/armrest.

They fit with about ½ (front holder) -1mm (rear holder) gap around it so it drops in & comes out easily and it comes up to just about ⅓ of the way up the mug/tumbler, I should point out that the mug/tumbler I have is the one without the handle.

The capacity of it is 470ml (16.54 fl.oz or 0.82 pints) which is plenty otherwise you'll be stopping for a pee regularly.

You can also buy a matching flask in the same range of 470ml or 1,2 L. I have the 1.2 L one, but it's very heavy when filled, but does give me 2 mugs of tea or coffee out of its single fill. Again it lasts a long time IF you preheat first.

Also highly recommend one of these:

Absolutely brilliant! When I preheated mine, I was able to use it the next day for coffee!

You can also get spares and the above from here: http://www.thermosonline.co.uk/

That's brilliant, thanks. Exactly what I needed to know, Thermos ordered!

[Travel mug]

I'll check and see.

Thanks, it's costing me a fortune finding one that fits.

[Travel mug]

And both of these fit the cup holders? I've tried bodum one's, Costa ones, ceramic etc and none of them fit in the holders

[Travel mug]

Hi,

This may sound like a daft question but has anyone found a good quality travel mug that actually fits in the stupidly small cup holders of the mark iii?

[OBDeleven]

They requested to register on the forum (!). No surprise nor success in trying to sign in with forum credentials...

I found a 'register' option within the app, I think it was under settings. I'll check tonight.

[OBDeleven]

Just got it (PRO) and had not yet the opportunity to plug in the OBD, but installed the app requiring username and pwd... but I just have an activation code!

Are they provided by the USB dongle?

TIA

Same issue!

Can you not open the passenger door from the inside? you can also put power in via the 12v socket. http://www.coopersofstortford.co.uk/src/gbase/coopers-of-stortford-micro-car-start-prodst09611i/?LGWCODE=9611;103993;5253&gclid=Cj0KEQjw-7GxBRCL_Kq6mZSHvdsBEiQA7r8VhH4sLTyvJrRT_SjViFuPAPaPx52W5F900YGg0GZt8d4aAnqr8P8HAQ

[2015 Octavia Bonnet Lever and Passenger Door with flat battery]

Get a spare battery and use some jumper cables to connect it to the starter motor under the car, this should power it enough to unlock, there are plenty of posts online too explain out in more detail

[USB and aux Socket]

I have a 64 plate and can charge my phone and iPod from the usb socket as well as using a twin USB/cigarette adapter in the front, no issues. Might be worth visiting a different dealership.

Would the spade connector on the red wire allow you to plug into an unused slot in the fuse box?
