I also had the ghost light, and after replacing it, it stopped. So it seems a new one sorts it. Likely a faulty senior.

Lucky you. Mine was in a garage for 7 months and still has software issues.

As someone who owns an SEL - avoid. Seriously.

Yes, The infotainment system isn't fit for purpose. The garage had mine in to fix for 8 months. It still has bugs. I'll never get a Skoda again. Glad others have had no issues though. Makes me wonder how when they have the same software.

Brilliant thanks. I had thought the undertray would be similar to the superb but it isn't. Much less protection.

Yup that's the one. I've a 2ltr diesel dsg SEL FE

Hi folks, Does anyone have a pic of underneath their Octavia at the back with the exhaust etc. I'm trying to see if any undercarriage protection has come off my car. I haven't had much luck on Google images .... Thank you

Well, mine goes back in next THursday as they somehow disabled my sat nav when applying the mph fix. Hoepfully that will be the end of my issues.... I contacted Kate at Skoda UK regarding compensation etc considering they have my car for 7+ months. I didn't get a reply. Either way, I won't buy another Skoda. Oh well.

No warranty extension. Nothing offered in terms of compensation. It was the mph/kmph issue along with all the other bugs on the FE cars.

I have left my Octavia back in this morning. When it was returned to me (after my local garage having it for 9 months), they returned it with 2 issues: 1: The built in sat Nav no longer worked. 2: The rear courtesy lights are turning on and off, constantly. Obviously it wasnt properly checked over before returning it to me. But sure, maybe this time it will be fixed for good.

So this is a screenshot of what my hardware and software etc says now. Two new side effects since getting my car back. One good and one bad. The bad - the built in sat Nav now doesn't work at all. I'm waiting on dealer getting back to me and told them that I thought it was poor they didn't bother to check everything before returning it. The good - Android auto now works wirelessly. It didn't before.

I've got my car back as well and it has had all the most recent updates I believe. So far so good. Unfortunately, the free year of the online connect services has expired. I never got to take advantage of them.

Seems I already had the new part fitted but this caused subsequent errors they have yet to fix. As such, still no ETA or return of my car. Well jealous of those of you who are now resolved or at least have a date. It should be noted that the new dash etc and error dates back to the 17 August. So no progress since then. "Dear Mr Thank you for your recent contact. In regards to the mph/km issue I can confirm that a part has already been fitted to your vehicle. Unfortunately your vehicle has developed a further issue which is currently being investigated by the retailer. They are liaising directly with the factory in regards to this and we are hoping to have a resolution shortly."

Yep. I've done that. I used to get a reply. But not for around 3 months now. I have to contact me dealer who just reports back that Kate has no update. AS if that's an acceptable update. But sure, that's how it is. I do find it interesting that we are all losing 1 years warranty cover and not needing mot's etc. That's if we get them back after a year

No worries. This is the one I no longer get any replies from.
