  1. No mate filled out a warranty form. TBH wasn't expecting/going to pay either lol
  2. Thanks xman for your reply the coding out of the stop start system was actually coded out as a favour at a VAG dealership by the mastertech who is actually my Son when I went to visit my family in Stoke on Trent some time ago, so doubt its that causing issues. Another thing to point out these issues were there before I had the stop start coded out. The brake manoeuvre I believe is something to do with park assist which my car does not have LOL. If its not sorted soon I will have some time of work and book it in the dealership where my son works (Audi) but he can have it go next door in the Skoda workshop.
  3. Thanks for the reply Freedom the other issues are ongoing from when the car was 6 months old and only just before this weekend really had problems starting, The battery tester was far from primitive the AA used all modern gear.
  4. AA came out on behalf of Skoda assist, He tested the battery which came back good, checked various connections, then said it does sound a little like the engine had digested some foreign body, he then proceeded to remove glow plugs from cyl 1 and 3 and found no issues. He then said it would have to be taken on a tow truck to the dealer for further investigation. He suggested before he arranged this he would like to try a new battery even though it tested good and didnt think that was the issue. Luckily he had an AGM battery onboard fitted it and bugger me it started?? The guy never coded the battery but replaced it with a 70Ah Varta silver Agm and told me to get it to the dealer for a check over especially with the other issues im having. Im not sure whether to get them to code the battery or not. Little premature for the battery to fail imo especially as the cars just over 13months old, not around 2yrs old which id suspect a battery issue and I dont use stop start (never worked anyway) but programmed out, ligts on manual control and no take me home lights programmed on.
  5. Hi all not had chance to get on here for a while due to health issues in the family. Along with a lot of car related issues which I will share now. 1. Rear brake manoeuvre malfunction: this shows up on SID randomly, but especially when you first start the car. 2. ACC unavailable: shows up on SID randomly, but especially when you first start the car. 3. Auto hold unavailable: shows up on SID randomly, but especially when you first start the car. 4. Brake won't release: This happens when you pull off at random times, but you can guarantee it will happen at a roundabout or when you need to get away. Took it to the dealers several times they cant find a fault and Skoda UK unaware of any issues, Dealer says dont worry its safe to drive. I say maybe but it isn't right fix it!! I have escalated this with the relevant people. Over the weekend it has become difficult to start "similar symptom of faulty glow plugs, or IMMO issue" Well today it wont start at all just turning over!! Just waiting for Skoda assist to take it away hopefully to the nearest junk yard!! Mrs say why dont I take a look with being in the trade, my answer no why should I, the cars just over a year old purchased new by myself with issues since 6months old. I think it a Friday afternoon or Monday built car lol. Any one else with issues.
  6. No not much use in this case lol es mīlēju Rīgu palika ēkā Maskavas ielā ar ģimeni, kuru es tikko satikās atvaļinājumā (corfu) pēc tam, kad viņi lūdza mani atnākt un dažus videonovērošanas darbus ēkā darīja ar laika apstākļiem ierastu biroju angļu valodā, kur viņš bija vadītājs Esmu iemācījusies latviešu valodu meitai Vlādai, kurai vajadzēja saņemt latviešu pasi, jo viņai bija veca krievu pase un, viņuprāt, bija vajadzīga latviskā pase kā viņas esošā viena bealiena, izņemot to, ka viņi galvenokārt runāja krieviski. man bija veiksme, jo man bija iespēja mācīties mazliet no abām valodām un ne ļoti labi, lai gan lol Es palikuju latvijā 2 un pusgadus un pieteicies uz rezidenci. Your English is better than my Latvian, but I do still to try to communicate with my good friends in Riga. I can also remember going somewhere but cant remember where one new year eve for a party but it was near the country and sea and the sea was actually frozen near the shore which I have photos of. I can always remember their 80 year old elderly family member (father/grandpa) challenging to a Vodka competition lol.....I will leave you to decide who won Even though this was some 15 years ago it is still like yesterday and Riga was beautiful
  7. I don't notice on my phone it was for free fitting, but you need to buy a spare of them in the first place cheeky barstards sorry guys my mistake
  8. Had this email from dealer whilst away for a week, offering a free spare wheel instead of the inflation kit as standard. Although this does not interest me it may help others getting a free spare wheel if they wish instead of the standard inflation kit from their dealers Sorry if this has already being covered elsewhere on forum. Good evening Mr ??? Instead of a spare tyre, your vehicle is supplied with an emergency puncture repair kit that requires you to spray glue into the punctured tyre. However, this temporary repair method is only suitable for punctures that are less than 4mm wide, and the adhesive also has a sell by date. The reason that this subject has been picked up by the press has been due to a number of drivers who have been left stranded after having had a puncture, the puncture repair kit not being suitable and therefore needing to use their recovery service to get them home. Since the press coverage we have received many calls and letters from our customers asking if it is possible to purchase a spare tyre as an option. We have looked into this and I am pleased to say that a kit is available from Sinclair ŠKODA Swansea – we will fit it FREE and carry out a complimentary FREE visual health check for you whilst doing this — call now to book. Yours sincerely David Jones Dealer Principle
  9. Had mine for bout a month now and love it especially after saying id never own a Skoda I can even say its the best car ive had for a long time., Just got back from a 300+ mile trip and the car was effortless mixed driving 59.2 mpg my advise take a good look round even if means travelling a bit further than normal, although a higher millage car is not necessary a bad car IMO
  10. That's pushing it a bit.......a bottle of Scotch or JD may be
  11. worth more than a drink my friend imo...... I will try and get down to Kent for a weekend before end of year, I did you for a static to hire in August for a week but £700 for a week in this summer we are having was a no go lol should the hatch close of the remote? Thanks Gizmo
  12. How much would you charge to enable these Gizmo ? (+ anything else you feel may be useful at the time) Quick question on TSR, I am only seeing one speed sign on both maxi dot and head unit and never seeing 2 at the same time ? is this also VCDS or should it do it automatically ?
  13. I will give it a go and see what measurements I can get, I might see if a can also get a paper rub with a crayon or something as a template
