Start-Stop real error!
Mallettsmallett replied to wedge69's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
This is usually a symptom manifestation of a battery on its way out. The car constantly monitors the battery voltage at rest and charging and then will disable start stop if the voltage is too low to typically crank the engine, leaving you stuck. It's not definite, as you may have had your car laid up unused for a few weeks and that's not unusual, but totally discharging a battery is bad for it in most cases and will limit capacity from then on. -

My money would be on a battery on its way out if it's voltage related after a week at rest. Certainly if it's an original. -
Yes. A battery measured across the terminal voltage at rest will float at about 12.8 and under charge will be up to 14.4 iirc.

You really mean, do you think I'll get away with nicking the spare. You know that answer to the question you posted. Go on, be honest.

I understand ford is bringing back the model T. It sounds like it could be right up your cobbled street. -

Canton sound system, worth it?
Mallettsmallett replied to lulzyboy's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Seriously, I think a lot is down to lack of soundproofing. Sit on your drive with the car stationary and ending off and see how you feel about it. Often the stereo is ok, it's just struggling to overcome ambient noise on the move. -

I think you need to let it go. -
Well, no, but she was next to Gamora at the time and she doesn't have any.

So none of us have any tape?

What's this part called & part no:
Mallettsmallett replied to BATVANVRS's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
It's outrageous. When I used to fix my Mini years ago, it was accepted you wedged yourself between two visibility teetering stacks to get what you needed, plus the five fingered discount on some trim. Health and safety and Crime prevention gone mad I tell you. -

It's the software. The headunit has to decode the files. Some audio playing software is good, others, not so good. Cheap dac. -
