Hi all, I have a bit of an issue after developing with my 2016 RS230 combi and wanted to know if anyone else has had a similar problem. As soon as the car is turned on the external ambient temperature shows as 60°C. There is no fluctuation in this and it shows up as soon as the key is turned in the ignition. The heater (both in normal and A/C mode) is also blowing cold unless turned to the Hi setting, in which case heat is emitted . Also both the front and rear heated screens will switch on (power goes to the button) but switch off again after 2 seconds. The car has the winter pack, and the heated front seats seem to be unaffected. The car also has a FSH with Skoda and as a matter of note has only recently (last 2 weeks) had both the altenator belt replaced and a replacement pipe to the coolant reservoir installed following the development of a crack in a the system which caused the entire resevior to empty (luckily this was found immediately). Any ideas? Thanks...
