Wiper issues
For the last 2 winters my wipers have been playing up. Sometimes they come on but i have wiggle the wiper joystick alot and quickly and thwy work. Now the intermittent setting has changed to on constant and the the faster action moved to the slower constant setting and not working when on faster setting. Sometimes the windsceeen washer won't work unless i wiggle the joystick alot. Seems to clear up in summer. Guess i need an auto electrician?

VAG CAMBELT REPLACEMENT INTERVAL CHANGE
I have spoken to someone at Skoda via livechat about cambelt change. They confirmed that on 1st july 2023 their interval pplicy had changed to a lifetime one and cambelt should be changed after 15yrs or 140k-160k miles. I had my belt changed in 2019 aft 88k miles and currently sit at 157k so hence why i enquired. They ensured me that i dont need to change my belt til i had done 140k miles from when i changed my belt in 2019. 🤔

Faded wheels and roof bars
I have a white black edition octavia estate and after car wash the guys freaked out and said something had happened to my wheels and that they had changed colour! They now appear to look like the colour has faded. The owner said uts never happened before and he spoke to the manufacturer of the cleaning stuff and they said my wheels couldnt have been lacquered 🤔. The owner spent most of today polishing the wheels and managed to get one nearly back to what they looked like. Ive also noticed the roof rail bars look faded too! Ive uploaded a couple of pics. The faded one is the drivers side front and the blacker one is the nearside rear. Both offside wheels look more faded. Any help would be appreciated
