Windscreen washer pump questions
SeanG replied to Redboy's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Further to my previous post.... stripped back the wheel arch cowling and, lo-and-behold, there is another pump! Maybe the one to the left is the headlight washer pump. In any case, I checked all fuses again to be sure nothing blown. Nothing blown! Not sure if the RH pump (for the front and back windows) feeds (power wise) to the other pump but at this stage I need go see someone that can test the electrics side and hopefully determine where the problem lies. -

Windscreen washer pump questions
SeanG replied to Redboy's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Hi Folks. I didn't want to start a new thread, hence the 'reopening' of this old one. I have a 2018 Octavia with LED headlights. I'm having a similar issue with front/rear wipers operating but no water being sprayed (and reservoir has water). I also have headlight washers but not extending/washing etc (I understand the procedure with HL on and only sprays after certain number of pulls etc). The pump is not making a sound. I've checked fuses) and nothing appears faulty. I bought a replacement on-line (googled reg number/make/model as you do) but having gained access behind the wheel arch plastic trim, I could see that the pump installed did not match what I'd bought. Finally tracked down a part number that seems to match the old pump but haven't ordered yet (1J5 955 6512 / URO-001649). I would seem that the existing pump (and the new correct one) only has one 'outlet' for the pipework. Asking before I replace it in case I am missing something. Is there a second/other pump or another part that required? Any and all help and assistance much appreciated. Sean -
I’ve no idea what a tyre plan is.... first time seeing such an option...... unless the torque is so “good” it shreds the tyres when you floor the “go” pedal....

I got the same mute issue when also using Google Maps but agree it’s most likely an iOS issue. When I connect now, I get the “home” icons screen on the car radio display so it doesn’t auto launch any apps. Before I disconnect the phone, I also press the home screen button on the display so it’s like that next time I connect. More a workaround that a solution but at least when I launch wave from the screen icon it doesn’t mute at the moment.

Running 14.2 iOS but still an issue. When connected it launches Waze and radio mutes. Have to enable radio as mentioned in first post. Now have it set that it just connects to CarPlay without launching any apps. Radio works (i.e. not being muted). However it then mutes the radio when I launch Waze or Google Maps.....

New iOS 14.1 released so might be sorted.... but I have to wait until my business phone is allowed apply the upgrade before I’ll know.... 👍

Hi folks, I've noticed since that last iOS upgrade (14.x) when I connect my iPhone to CarPlay, it “loses” (or mutes) the radio channel and I have to manually select the radio channel again for sound. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Cheers, Sean

Cheers - now I know where to look....

Octavia Sportline - I'm confused!?!
SeanG replied to penguin17's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Went for the 2.0D with DSG again - my previous was a ‘11 Octy with upgraded spec (before it was called the Sportline) which had a upgraded interior , Xenon HL, higher spec radio, lowered susp etc. Was as looking for the 1.5TSI but it wasn’t available with DSG at the time (sorry but no market here in Ireland they said ......!). Of course, 6 months later it was available and also with the virtual cockpit. Now THAT’S an (other) option I would have opted for!! I spent a few extra quid (or should that be euros?!) with extras and wasn’t that bothered with getting alternative wheels at the time. -

SeanG replied to penguin17's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Sportline variant has been available in Ireland for a number of years - mine is a Jan 18 model. Extras over the top spec Style included 9.2 Columbus which has sat Nav, Hawk 17” wheels, interior ambient lighting, red or grey VRS-style interior (I went with grey), Full LED front and rear lights, and a few other extras. I added full parking, sunroof, heated seats and windscreen and a few extras. Garage added Canton. -
LED interior dome lights remaining on??
SeanG replied to SeanG's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Yes indeed. With the saloon the parcel shelf is always closed, but that’s easily remedied. Will check over the weekend. -

SeanG replied to SeanG's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I bought them from LEDPerf following various good comments on the forum so will see where I might go next to replace them or not. Can’t say I’ve noticed the boot lights (also part of the LEDPerf upgrade) but then I’m not usually “in” the boot to see them working or not (a bit like “does the fridge light stay on when the door is closed...”....) Will keep an an eye on them so to speak.... cheers.
