With 2 bikes facing forward and 2 bikes facing backwards, removing the pedals may also help saving the very last centimeters. 😉

Maybe too late… If not a wheel speed sensor, I was thinking to the selected gear sensor. 🤷‍♂️

Hi, The link below may be much more useful than Haynes, and it’s free: Enjoy 😉 !

A MY2017 L&K should also have front vented seats which are not available on a Sportline. AFAIK, Virtual pedal was an option, at least in France. It may depend on country.

Hi, Using the ‘search’ function would have lead you to this thread, I guess… Enjoy 😉!

You´re welcome!

Hi, The list of my current lods is above. Do you mean the coding for ranch of them? If yes, I intend to create a thread with VCDS codings. 😉

Hi, A few mods made with my VCDS yesterday evening: - Activation of the Teardrop wiping function on the front and rear wipers - Activation of the A/C fan speed display in AUTO mode - Deactivation of the DRLs when the handbrake is applied (engine off) - Activation of warning lights upon emergency braking - Activation of the "Heart Beat" mode on the START button (Kessy system) --> Totally useless and therefore absolutely essential! 😁 - Activation of the "Drive Green" menu. --> I should come back to it because it's displayed, but there's no score displayed... And the good news is, I was able to check the number of Launch Controls performed on my Kodiaq: 0! That's great. Otherwise, I still have 9 other VCDS modifications in mind. But I'm not sure they're feasible. Anyway, I didn't struggle with the SFD protections, that was the good news. Once I've finished with these VCDS mods, I'll make a dedicated thread. Stay tuned! 😉

Hi @Ootohere, My engine code is DTUA. According to your screen shots, it could be a DQ381 actually. Thanks! Anyway, I should go to my dealer soon, since my ´blue bear’ is about to have 45000 km on the clock. I’ll ask them to confirm the right DSG7 type. 😉

Hi, I've recently bought a MY2022 Kodiaq fitted with TDI200 4x4 DSG7 Official PR codes list states its gearbox code is UDC. But I don't find anything with this code, and can't define wether it has a DQ381 or a DQ500 DSG7. How could I determine this? Thanks.

Hi, Strangely, it worked fine today. 😁 Actually, I almost never select music files from the MFSW. I may be a bit old school. I systematically use the MIB buttons. If I remember well, my micro SD card is FAT.

Hi, OEM P/N for cabin filter on a MY2017 Mk3 is 5Q0 819 653 Than you can find several ones complying with this ref. Depending on the manufacturer, you can sometimes find ones with activated carbon. I usually go Bosch, or Valeo.

Hi, Coming from a Superb Mk3 which had a MUB2.5 and SD cards slots, I've transferred all my .mp3 files to a micro SD so that I can still read music with the USB-C ports and a MicroSD card reader. It works, but: Many album jackets are not displayed anymore, whereas they were in my Superb Mk3. I don't understand that point since I didn't change the files, just copied them. The last file I've read does not start again, when I come back to 'MEDIA', it starts with another .mp3 file but I don't know why this one in particular (different album, different artist, a different one each time this happens, no obvious link)... Is there a box to tick somewhere, to read the last selected/played file as per ACC (keep last selected distance) for instance? I've looked for such a box, but found nothing. Thanks for your help!

Washed the original rims. Almost ready for winter tyres in a couple of months. 😊

Hi, If some of you intend to DIY their Haldex oil change. I've made this "How to guide": I had willingly not mentioned the drain plug of the rear diff to avoid this kind of disaster as shown in the video below. Both drain screws of Haldex and rear differential are unfortunately the same and close one to each other, indeed. Thus be really careful on what you're doing. This video is really interesting in its last third in particular, because it shows all damages on a differential, that has be driven for 9000 miles without oil in. As said in this video, this a DIY fail, that finally leads to huge expenses. If you nevertheless do this mistake, 2 things should warn you, you're on the wrong way: 1) When you remove the Haldex pump to clean the strainer, you'll finally see an important amount of oil flushing, just because, you're actually draining the whole Haldex which was still... full of oil. 2) If you don't remove the Haldex pump, Oil will almost overflow instantly and you'll be able to fill a very small quantity of oil. And there's a good reason for that. Of course you've drained... But you've drained the rear diff instead of the Haldex! Well, better look twice, or the bill may be very steep! Take care buddies!

Maybe in control unit 09?

Hi, It depends on which indicators you’re talking about. I don’t know about blinkers, but BSD lights are controlled by 3C Lane change control unit for instance.

Hard luck! Birds... 😑

Hi, Here after a deep cleaning (bodywork and inside), more or less as it arrived at home: And now with its new summer rims (original ones will be used for winter tyres) 😍. I didn't chose the real 20" RS rims, but only the 19" replica (also OEM ones) to save a bit of money and comfort. 😁

Hi, Everything done yesterday.🙂 I now stop here regarding mods'. Potential next ones will be thru VCDS. 😉 Pics posted in the dedicated thread.

Hi, Only feasible on MY18 and onwards: 03-Brakes > Security access : 11966 > Adaptation 10 Select channel "IDE05055-Hydraulic brake assistant" Set new value to "Early" instead of " Normal" as factory setting. Then tick "soft reset" and save. Done. Enjoy at next stop sign or traffic lights. 😉

When do you ear this 'clunk'? Is it when you precisely lift your foot off the brake pedal, or when you start pressing the gas pedal and exactly when the brakes disengage? If it's the 2nd option, it may be related to the factory setting of the auto hold. I had modified it with VCDS to set the release of the brakes to 'Early' instead of 'Normal'. This enables smoother start and also avoids similar 'clunks' or 'creakings', when the car starts moving with brakes still on with the 'Normal' setting.

Hi, I just take it out and drop the new one in. On the very 2 or 3 first times I did it, It emptied it en refilled. But I finally assumed that Skoda mechanics by dealer would absolutely not waste their time this way. This is why I ended up doing this way, and do it the simplest way now. Regarding priming process, I don't use VCDS. I do it the "old way": 1) Set contact ON for 10s to let the fuel pump raise pressure. 2) Set contact OFF for 15s to let pressure drop 3) Repeat steps 1 & 2 4 to 5 times 4) Start engine and feather throttle up to 2000-2200 rpm for 40-50s to get rid of potential remaining bubbles in the fuel injection circuit I've proceeded this way about 8 times. Never had a problem.

You're welcome! 😉

New cares brought today: 1) Front mud flap installed 2) Deep clean of the inside: Completely vacuumed, even in the spare wheel well 😁. Carpet cleaner on the boot floor. Damp microfiber on plastics, and seats. Rubber mat brushed with soapy water 3) ISOfix hooks cover installed for rear seats. 4) Tunnel cover installed 2 things left for tomorrow: Leather care Windows cleaning. New summer rims installation Then, it should be OK and ready for new pics. 😃
