Replacement factory fitted USB port?
NFmiller replied to NFmiller's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Thanks guys, I’ll get onto it. -
In pulling out the cable connecting my phone to the factory fitted USB port (connecting to Apple air play), I’ve managed to break the little white connector inside the USB port. Does anyone know whether the port can be replaced? Thanks.

Hi Rosco, I've had my SE L for 10 days now. I'm one of those that had a black car once & never again. Demin Blue this time. I went for rear camera & 5 year warranty but left out the front sensors. Wish I'd included them now. You get used to the rear sensors and then wonder why the front ones don't come on! -

OK, my wife took the car down the A3 today with me in the passenger seat - not something that I'm very comfortable with! i had my arm on the armrest looking for signs of vibrations as we got up to 70mph. Yes, I could feel the road at times, but there was certainly nothing that I would call vibrations - whether in 2-cylinder or 4-cylinder mode. So panic only, my wife's put it down to my driving and I'm happy with that. Thanks to those that have taken an interest. Norm -

Thought I'd buck the trend - see profile photo. -

Thanks Dave, that's reassuring. I'll get my wife to take it for another run with me in the passenger seat and see if I can spot anything. -

Car arrived on my birthday, 29th Jan 2018. Denim blue, looks great. Only had one run out but very pleased with it, except my wife reckons that it starts vibrating above about 60mph. I can't feel it while I'm driving but she's adamant it's there. Anyone else had this? -

Exciting, yes. It's my birthday on 29th Jan - if I tell them maybe they'll try a bit harder! -

Thanks YMe and KevC, I'll be having a word with the dealer! Am I optomistic in expecting it to arrive before 31st Jan if it was built at the start of this week? -

I went for a different blue - Denim Blue. I hope I made the right choice. The car - SE L Hatch 1.5 TSi DSG- has been built and is on its way to UK. Can I expect it before the end of Jan, that's when my tax runs out. YMe - can you just explain 2 of your VCD tweaks . Locking/unlocking chirp, is that to turn it off? Fan speed in auto, what's that?

He had to admit he was wrong and it was only in the 1.5! I notice all the extras you've added. Have you come across a power opener/closer for the boot? I really fancy one of those. -

The wait's ideal for me because I've just got the date for my hip replacement op - in 4 weeks time. Hopefully, the new motor will be ready just as I am! -

Took your advice YMe, ditched the Smart Protect and the Sports wheel, added heated seats, heated wheel and rear backrest openers. Just waiting for the Build week, now.
