I was thinking same thing . Although calipers do tend to get a bit corroded externally this one looks particularly bad at only 6 months old .

Adjust Traffic Sign Recognition ??
Boxerdog1 replied to stupe650's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk IV (2020 > )
I activated via Skoda Connect App . Cost was a 'one off' £63 from memory. -
Has anyone replaced their VRS Altair Wheels with Vegas ? I've never been a great fan of Altairs but love the new VRS and having owned one for a couple of months now the Altairs are still not growing on me ! I note that Vegas are 8J ET44 vs 7.5J ET48 on the Altairs and wonder if the Vegas would still be suitable for fitment with 225/40 tyres as are on the Altairs. If anyone has got Vegas on a VRS already I'd love to see an image. Thanks in advance for any help/info.

Space Saver Spare Wheel Securing Mount Bolt

The image is very similar to the one I have securing my space saver wheel . -
Hence reason I paid the £65 to have traffic sign recognition activated via the Connect app.

Lane assist - does anyone actually like it?

Standard routine when I get in car ...... Press the start button and immediately turn off stop start and lane assist 🙂 -
Mirror housing charging port.

Thanks all for the various inputs . I've hard wired the Aguri DX4000 now and it works perfectly. It would appear that the mirror C Port generates less than the required 3 amps required by the DX4000 but probably generates sufficient amps for most dashcams out there. -

The Aguri DX4000 needs 3 amps Steve presumably due to the extra functions it provides . -

I've just bought the Aguri DX4000 which has added features inc. speed camera alerts and traffic sign recognition etc - have used their products previously and found them to be excellent. Hard wiring cost not an issue as kit came with the camera and I'll install it myself. -

This happened to me and I relocated it as per your comments above. The connection was solid afterwards but no charge to the Dashcam although it will charge an I Phone . I think Hairy Joe's comment about 1.2 amp output is correct hence unable to obtain the 3 amp supply needed on the DX4000. -

Thanks HJ , that would explain it . It's the hard wire route then .
