Hey. The otherday I had a ! On the front parking sensors and an error on dash something like error front park pilot not available. Had a quick check and all clean but one looks like it has bit chipped by a stone or something. Has anyone replaced theirs before. I've done a rear on a superb and and octavia scout before. Just wondering if its easy and what will need removing. Its a SEL no extra bits attached to bumpers that I know of Ta.

Thank you

Think its that. Sits behind the glovebox. I had to take out the one on my superb when it seized, but managed to get it out without touching the glovebox. Not sure if I can with the kodiaq, seems a bit tighter

Hey everyone. Has anyone removed their heater fan from behind the gloves box before? Mine has an annoying squeek and want to try stop it. Ta

Hey. So about 3 weeks ago, I bought a 2017 2.0 diesel 4x4. If i had the heating on, I lost coolant, but no heating, no loss. It went back to the garage I bought it from and they said there was a loose hose on a recently replaced matrix. Yesterday, had heating on etc and checked it while the engine was slightly warm (about 4 hours later) and was fine, went out this morning and lower than it was last night. Seems to have lost it while parked. Anyone else had similar or an idea what it may be? Ta 🙂

Sorry if this has been asked but I couldn't find it. I have just bought a 2017 Kodiaq and have set upp the My Skoda app, using the free version. Just wondering what would be the benefits of paying for it? Thanks

Picked up a new to me 2017 kodiaq SEL this week. I think it's quarts grey. Pretty sure the sillica bag has burst though 🤦🏼‍♂️

Hey folks. Is the VW candy white the same as Skoda Candy white? I need to touch up some bits on my 2012 scout and can only find VW candy white locally. Ta

Turns out, the brake cables had disconnected from the lever cable holder connector bit. Fidly bit do able

It's been sitting below freezing for the past few days here. Went out to the superb and it was parked with the handbrake off in gear the usual. Went to start it up, pulled on the handbrake and no resistance at all. Foot brake still works fine and drives OK, just no handbrake. It had new pads, disc and calipers to the rear late October/November time and no issues since until now. Anyone experience this? Could the handbrake be frozen off? Or is it likely to be something else?

I believe my 2012 2.0 litre diesel scout is needing a drivers side front brake caliper. I've looked to order one, but there are 2 different ones avaliable. Sightly different in size etc. Does anyone know which fits which car? Thanks 🙂

I just went to move my 2012 superb and when you put it in full lock to the left, just as it gets to the full lock, there is a spring stretch type of sound for less than a second. Nothing when you put in full lock right. No clunk's or bangs when driving (I live down a farm track). Has anyone experienced this?

I have a 2012 Scout. Last week the drivers side washer came out and washed and won't do back in. The passenger side is working fine, both still spraying etc, but drivers side just won't go back. It's 10° outside today and been above freezing all week. So not frozen pipes. Is there an easy fix? All fuses checked etc Thanks in advance

Thanks. It could be, looks that kind of area. I will try get a better picture tomorrow. Its been dark past few days before after work

So since I bought my scout, the passenger side of the front bumper has a slight droop. When wahing the car at the weekend I realised on the passenger side, the bit the arrow points at is straight and not curved luke the driverside. I'm not mechanically minded, so any help on what it's called and if it can be replaced to stop the droop would be amazing 😀 (Photo not mine, taken from Google)

I've sent it up to the local garage to have a look. I got as far as getting the trunk moved the gave up 🤦🏼‍♂️😂 Thanks for the help though

I think I have a wiring issue. A few weeks back the fuel flap wouldn't unlock without the gentle pressure trick. But very intermittent, then the other week the back passenger door would unlock, then yesterday the mirrors wouldn't unfold and non of the windows would open with the drivers button and non of the buttons was lit up. I'm pretty sure the red light on the door was flashing all the way home too. Has anyone any ideas? The photo is in the tube going to the door....

My 2.0 diesel scout has started to make a kind of hissing/chuff noise when idling under rhe bonnet. Its pretty central in the engine bay. It stops when you press the clutch then starts again when to take it off. There's no noticeable loss of power or anything. I have a video of the noise but it won't upload

The first picture in the original post is the same side of the most recent phot uploaded yesterday. Both front discs and pads were replaced in January

The brakes don't seem to be getting noticeably hot. It was hovering around freezing on the journey to work and after the 16 mile trip to work there was not obvious heat coming from them

Just finding frustrating that so far after having the car 3 months it's been back 3 times. They've still not even managed to find the record to say they serviced it before I picked it up with I find very suspicious

It's a 30 odd mile round trip to work. I'm a paramedic, so wouldn't say I'm a slow driver 🤣

Front passenger side.

So the Saga continues. The brakes and pads were changed, now less than 1000 since the new disk looks like this. At the moment Arnold Clark are refusing to replace it. In there word 'Regrettably, vehicles are prone to rust and as far as we are aware the car is fit for purpose and mechanically sound. As such, the branch has informed us they will not be contributing any further to the cost of work done to your vehicle'.

I don't think they would have. It was done at a skoda service centre and from what I've been reading it seems they don't routinely do them. 🤦🏼‍♂️ I borrowed a mates ODB 11 and its come up with error code 00448 Haladex clutch pump (Open Circuit) Intermittent
