Please advise on New windscreen wipers to buy for ‘72 plate Scala
You did have the wiper arms in the maintenance position so as to avoid hitting the bonnet. Incase you didn’t, if you turn on ignition then turn it off, flick the wiper stalk down the wiper arms raise and park upright on the screen to allow wiper blades to be changed easily.

Moved from a Dacia to a Kamiq & comparing 3 cyl engines
The Kamiq 1.0 Tsi comes with either 95 or 116 hp, sounds like you might have the 95 hp version, as by all accounts on here, the 116 hp versions are very capable.

MySkoda App.
How old is your car, if new Skoda connect service is free for 3 years. If older the it does incur a cost.

2020 Sportline - Cockpit Dipped beam indication
The dashboard icon for headlights on has gradually disappeared on all Skoda model now. The only indication that headlights are on are the infotainment changing to dark mode and the what I would sidelight indicator under the auto symbol on the switch turns green when the headlights are on.

Windows master switch passager side broken
Have you tried resetting the one touch operation as per the owners manual. Open window fully using switch on driver door, once window open press switch again to open, a click will be heard, now close window fully , then again operate switch in close position, again a click will be heard. This should reset one touch operation on that window.

Speed limit warning
It looks like you have set a speed warning at 20 mph, the traffic sign recognition system should read speed limit signs and warn you as mentioned above if you go over the speed limit. You can adjust how far over the limit before warning in the settings and I’m sure you can set the warning sound level there as well, perhaps you are not hearing the warning.

Scala 1.0 tsi SE L 2024 sat nav
I have a 2024 Kamiq so similar sat nav I presume. Have you checked preferences as you may have ticked to avoid certain road types, also if you select quickest route it will divert you round road works, traffic jams etc so may take less obvious routes. Is your map software the latest, believe mine is now on 26.1 so must have updated recently OTA. Also must add I’ve never experienced the problems you seem to be having.

Rear windscreen wiper
On previous Skoda turning off the rear wiper when reversing option stopped the intermittent rear wiper operation. Just meant you have to flick the rear wiper if reversing, a small price to pay for the annoying rear wiper operating when not required, especially when it does it on a dry rear screen.

Winter tyres and wheels, advice needed
I used the Skoda approved size 17” wheels with 215x65 tyres on both my previous Kodiaq’s. I still have the wheels and tyres in the for sale section and really need them gone as I have downsized to a Kamiq. Name your price if interested.

PCP settlement figure seems unfair and possibly illegal?
It is a withdrawal/ cancellation figure you want , not a settlement figure, and withdrawal can be done in the first 14 days with minimal interest, and no loss of any perks from the deal.

This can't be right, surely?
Only the one jack required, jack up rear remove rear wheel, fit spare to rear, then remove front wheel with puncture and replace with wheel removed from rear.

This can't be right, surely?
It’s standard practice to fit space saver/ smaller spare to rear.

This can't be right, surely?
My Monte Carlo has 18” wheels and has a 16” spare wheel, but the tyre profiles are different profiles resulting in a very slight difference in circumference.

SmartLink activation on Kamiq 2024 facelift (post-05/2024, NI7 infotainment)
Must be region/ model specific as my 2024 UK Monte Carlo has Apple car play connectivity.

Kessy problem
You unlock by holding the handle, not touching the sensor. You only need to touch the sensor area indicated to lock.

Access to Kamiq fusebox
Don’t know how you’ve managed to quote me saying something I haven’t.

Access to Kamiq fusebox
Dashcam piggybacked off fuse 43 rear wiper, which according to consensus on here is the one to use and I have done on 2 Yetis and 2 Kodiaq’s previously.

Access to Kamiq fusebox
As above it’s fuse 54 your looking for. My fuse box is same layout as yours and handbook diagram, and as mentioned slightly more populated.

Driving Score on the Skoda app
I have used the driving score previously but earlier in the year it was removed from the app, and posts on here confirmed the same. Have you got the driving score on a current version of MY Škoda as it certainly hasn’t re appeared on mine.
