How to turn off speed camera and hazard warnings
To turn off speed camera warnings on a 2026 Skoda Octavia vRS, access the infotainment screen, locate the Traffication app, and disable alerts within its settings, or delete the app. Speed limit warnings can be muted in navigation settings or disabled in the driving assistant settings, though these may reset per trip.

Octavia MK4 MY2023 OTA update went wrong (03A8)
Hi, had the very same thing happen to me. After a couple of visits to the dealer they replaced the head unit with a new one, under warranty of course. Been ok ever since

I’ve got my nextbase 322 connected via the socket on a short cable. Works very well- Dab radio station logos
Yes the very same on mine so could it be the radio stations themselves ?- Dab radio station logos
My Octy 2023 has a few logo badges like BBC and a couple of others but not Smooth radio. Tried the “install logo” button in settings but no joy.- Smartlink notifications
Could try getting into smart link and turn off notifications. Sorry don’t know much about smart link as I use apple car play but good luck. I’m sure someone on here has had the same and will advise- Dash Cam Install on vRS
Yes usb-c socket by the rear view mirror. Fitted a Nextbase in my Octy just need to buy a shorter power cable Bought these for a neat fit on EBay- Rubber mats for Mk4 (SEL 1.5 TSI e-TEC 150PS DSG ACT Estate)
Got mine from carmats.co.uk- infotainment
- Skoda breakdown cover
I was told on Friday when I picked up my used October (2023) that I was covered until the warranty expires (2026) then I need to renew or find alternative- Skoda breakdown cover
Hi, I would assume that ringing ŠKODA Sasist with your reg number will identify the car as “ under warranty” and therefore has breakdown cover for that duration- Start Stop not working
Battery checked all ok. Disconnected stop/start at negative terminal then put battery on my charger for a full charge, been ok since- Start Stop not working
My Fabia had this problem with the stop/start and msg on the info system saying battery was low. Disconnected the stop/start on the negative terminal of the battery and no more low battery warnings.- Tyres
Hi fellow Skodians, I have a 2016 Fabia 1.2 tsi dsg and on the last 2 mot’s have been advised that I have “cracking” in between the treads of my tyres. The treads themselves are all above 4mm however these are the tyres that were on the car when I bought it from new and the mileage is 21k. There is a bit of wear on the inner fronts so had the alignment checked and that was ok. Is it worth me swapping the wheels around?- 1.2tsi vs 1.0tsi
I would also look at how much you are going to use the car bearing in mind the 2016 will be £20 road tax as where the 2018 will be £140- Wheel adjustment
The garage I went to in my area comes highly recommended from lots of returning customers. I actually watched him drive the car in and also watched him set his gear up. He called me in to show me that the laser light was pointing to where it should be, so at no point was any adjustments made- Wheel adjustment
The tracking & alignment was free as I had requested it and they don’t charge if there are no alterations. I’m wondering if it’s down to the advisories on a previous mot - Dash-Cam connectivity with USB C socket adjacent to rear view mirror.
