I found something similar: https://www.bunnings.com.au/selleys-310g-401-rtv-engineering-grade-silicone-sealant_p1231042 Thinking this would be fine. I am down under so I had to source something similar. I have found the 3M VBH GFP and will use that as a back-up if this does not work. Thank you again.

Thank you @nige8021! Would it be safe for the engine? And would there be a specific type or grade?

Thank you, @T07! I will have a look.

Hi, all. Just wondering what adhesive is safe for the paint when sticking the bonnet foam for the struts? Mine just came off and I have only a tape there, at the moment. It does not look nice and probably not safe in the long run. Thank you for the help.

Hi, Emird. This should fit the 2015 Octy 3: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/switch/5q0713128a/

Thank you, @TheClient! Happy with it, so far.

Thank you for the tip, @purephotoni. I am continuously looking for different products to try. I was using Meguiar's for the longest time. Worked for the longest time but I know there are some better ones out there.

Tried the Chem Guys Cherry Wet Wax yesterday. Another amazing wax from them.

Got it! Yes. I have seen this link and have downloaded it, as part of my guides for this fix. Appreciate it. I have VCDS so will clear it using that.

AHHH! Thank you, @BCUK. Did you just use VCDS -scanned and cleared the error?

My bad. It was a thank you to @GrandmasterFaff. Hehe.

Thank you for the helpful tips, @grandmasterbray. I will give it a go and maybe even make a video for everyone else to use. Keep you posted.

Agree,@KenONeill. I was straightforward with them and said I am disappointed. They did not care. They will hear about it in the survey. They do have a thing about learning from people who read from fora. I noticed that. Even if the approach is a diplomatic one, they get offended, specially with issues like this, or anything they cannot fix, for that matter.

Hey @GrandmasterFaff! Thank you for posting. I just got my switch today... as with most of the horror stories here, unless the error is logged even if it happened, Skoda won't replace the part. Funnily enough, they acknowledge that it is an issue but they said their hands are tied due to orders from Skoda Australia or just the policy, in general. Went to 2 dealerships here in VIC and was given the same spiel. The one today wanted me to pay for the repair (approx. AUD420) and said that buying the part and having it installed by a private independents will not help, as they are the only ones who can do it. Ha! I did not cave and just went around to parts and bought it (costed me a 3rd). This is Skoda Richmond and the other shop that declined it was Bayside Skoda. They always say to me they don't use fora (though they should because they look like idiots) and that forum people are a bunch of cowboys. He looked like an idiot saying that because he is about to get a bad rating from his survey. While I get the whole rules thing, if it is a known issue, I just cannot accept that they will not cover it, even under warranty. Now, to the question, was it easy to do? Did you have to reset anything?

Hi, all. Just received an update from Dana from Ross-Tech that it has been updated. She had sent me a file to update Basic Settings 04 in Controller 4B. Please see the screenshot. Hope this helps, all.
