  1. Hi, My 2019 Octavia Estate is plain old cooking white, no pearl/metallic/etc. I cannot find ANY indication of the code to get some touch in for stone chips. Looked all door jambs, boot, bonnet, owners data book................ nothing! Help!
  2. My 2019 Octavia bought 2020 went in for 40k service and MOT. On return it seemed marginally down on power but this in constant traffic and town speed limits. As soon as it went anywhere near open roads it was obviously seriously down on power. No other symptoms, no warning lights. No undue noises, etc. Smooth idle. Completed a 60 mile journey (with little overtaking possible due power loss) but it still reached 65mph on motorway "eventually". Poor acceleration, more throttle needed. Drinking fuel (more than 10mpg less than normal) No indications/symptoms other than that. Following day return journey, and three miles in it brought up the Exhaust (Emission) Control Warning light. Down on power same level, no other symptoms. Garage took it back. light still on, said they found an error for "boost pressure regulation", then found and "O" ring had been put back out of place, kinked, in "breather pipe to turbocharger". Replaced and returned. After one day of two 5 mile return trips, Its now the time of the week for the 60 mile overnight trip again. And it did EXACTLY as first trip. Outward journey very down on acceleration power as soon as out of traffic, no warning indication. Return trip following day three miles in at a few hundred metres most from previous place (level dual carriageway) up comes the light and stays on. Light on following day from engine start. AND........ its back with them. AGAIN SO............... Anyone else had similar? Cause? Solution? How does the warning not alight even when the issue is clearly there for so long before it does light up?
  3. OK, bear in mind that I have used many differing Sat Nav for many years. Currently own a Tom Tom, but the 2019 dash layout does not help placement at all, unlike my previous one (2009) My 2019 Octavia built-in (Amundsen, I think) however has THE most unfriendly menu system yet. Its inconsistent and contrary to the manual. Currently I'm struggling to try to alter the HOME address. Its somehow set trying to take me 300 miles away from actual home. A lot of the time when a route is set it tries to take me to this "home" and then on to destination set. Cannot reliably get to any destination "delete from memory" function. Does NOT work as per manual (which is I think for Columbus). Cannot find where to MAKE it change. Is there a guide anywhere for what I have?
