The dealer rectified all the issues for me. New pads and discs front and rear, front wheel bearings, software update for MIB and engine. The car is a joy to drive now but all these things should have been picked up during the Skoda approved inspection in my opinion, still credit to the dealership RRG for sorting everything in a timely manner without complaint or charge.

I agree too it’s the dealer who should rectify this you mess it up even more doing yourself.

Had my software updated on Thursday not had any issues as yet and android auto now connects by Wi-fi.

My front discs and pads were replaced by the dealer about 2 weeks ago and the rear discs and pads yesterday so they must be able to get hold of them from somewhere. But as I have mentioned earlier in my post’s very poor for a car 10 months old with 11k mileage.

Not had chance to see if the kangarooing has been cured the dealer dropped the car off at home for me. I will see what it’s like tomorrow.

My car has been with the dealer 24 hrs. They replaced rear brakes and discs, front wheel bearings, updated the MIB software and the engine software to address the kangarooing. The front discs and pads were replaced 2 weeks ago. Not great for a 70 reg car with 11k on the clock! Still can’t fault the dealership for addressing my concerns just think it would have been better to check the car over before I took delivery.

To be fair the technician at the dealership investigated everything on the list I hade made including the kangarooing. He said that there is a software update that he will download when it goes back in next week. So hopefully everything will be resolved.

The irony is the salesman said it was a former VAG owned car.

Got my 6th Octavia a mk4 3 weeks ago 10.5 k miles 1.5 TSI Business. The first time I drove on the motorway the brakes were juddering and grinding. Took it straight back to the dealers, I had only had it a day and they replaced the front discs and pads. 2 weeks later the car is still juddering whilst braking and there is a whining like a wheel bearing. Back to the dealer and yes it needs front wheel bearings. In addition to this the front drivers tyre had no balancing weights and also the usual sat nav popping and dialling sos by itself etc. It also has the kangarooing from first to second. This is a Skoda approved car that has supposed to have been checked prior to sale and collection. Obviously someone did not check the vehicle properly! The dealer is addressing the issues without complaint but it makes be question the quality of the parts used by Skoda on assembly. I forgot to mention the rear discs are corroded too.
