Start Stop not working
batemansxxxb replied to andy2286's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I have a similar issue the dealership tested the battery & said it was ok.i was due to have the car booked in for an overnight battery charge & investigation, but it started working intermittently mostly on milder days, so i didn't bother in case i got landed with a diagnostic fee from the dealership if they found no fault, i find the tech's at the dealership whete i bought it just can't be bothered -

Skoda sd card not enough room
batemansxxxb replied to batemansxxxb's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
That’s the problem, I’ve tried reducing the cluster size to 4096 & it’s still too large, there’s a post somewhere in updating the Amundsen saying to reduce it to 2048 but windows doesn’t allow this, there are other options in the list when formatting like 32kb etc, but this is unknown territory for me, I’m sure I’ve done something like this in the past, but it just can’t remember -
Been updating the map on the sd card for the Amundsen unit in my 2017 Octavia,when i try to copy the new files i get the message not enough room, i've read that you need to format to 2048 cluster size,but windows 7 doesn't offer that option, & it's been that long since i did it last that i've forgotten how to do it, can you guys help me ?

I've scraped the wheels on my Kodiaq & have looked for refurbish services,but wondered if there's anyone from Newcastle or surrounding areas that has positive experience of these services they can recommend

Columbus Map Update 2021 (MIB1/2 HIGH)
batemansxxxb replied to MartiniB's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
You can use a 32GB sdhc card to update the Columbus system, I used a 64gb & it worked fine, it’s the Amundsen system that requires the Skoda card that comes with it- 131 replies

Columbus DAB FM switching - or not
batemansxxxb replied to goath's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
Had the car at the dealer today to hard wire dash cam & asked them to sort the issue with the radio out,I just got fobbed off,they said it doesn’t switch from dab to fm automatically, when I pointed out the handbook said it does they said a lot of things in the handbook don’t apply to all models,I replied that the amundsen did in the Octavia. I also tackled them about the seat belt arming lights coming on after the car starts again after stop start is activated,but got fobbed off again,they said as the handbrake was applied in stop start it was normal for this to occur -
Ipreviously connected my iphone xs max to my columbus system by bluetooth & everything worked fine,since i connected apple car play the music from my phone no longer plays by bluetooth,so i stopped car play & reset the bluetooth connection from the phone (forget) & reconnected bluetooth,but the columbus still fails to play the music over bluetooth, has anyone else had this problem & know the solution ?

Columbus Map Update 2021 (MIB1/2 HIGH)
batemansxxxb replied to MartiniB's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
Too late I’m afraid, I did think of that, but wasn’t sure if it would work, so the files are currently being transferred to the pc, then I’ll re format the card & paste the 3 files back to the card....the scenic route I know 😏 Thanks for all your help guys 😁 It wasn’t clear in the first post that you had only to put the 3 files on the card,.- 131 replies

Columbus Map Update 2021 (MIB1/2 HIGH)
batemansxxxb replied to MartiniB's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
Right I think I get it now, the unzipped file includes the extra folder, which has to be ditched, so it looks like that was the reason the car couldn’t read the files,I’ll go back & paste the mob etc to my pc & re format the card to get rid of the folder, then paste the mob files & meta data back to the card im used to the amundsen updates from Skoda which self extracted without these problems- 131 replies

batemansxxxb replied to MartiniB's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
This may sound dumb, the folder shouldn’t be there ? so do I cut & paste the mib files & metadata & Ditch this folder? If that’s the case it looks like this has been the problem all along- 131 replies

batemansxxxb replied to MartiniB's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
This is what’s extracted & the mib 1/2 files & meta info txt are in this folder i used the link in the 1st post for Skoda this time, not tested it yet, I’ll give it a go in the morning as far as the dealer fixing the nav if there’s a problem, I far as I see it they’re obligated to do so, the car is still under warranty for a few months yet & the approved used warranty covers me for 2 yrs inc the remaining months of the 3yr- 131 replies

I’ve only just discovered that the card is an sdxc. Not sdhc. As I thought does this make a difference?- 131 replies
