Looks like it was the quad core, bugger. Not to worry, can still tether my signal from phone etc to get full functionality.

Tbh for the amount I'll use the car, that will probably suffice. As long as I can use android auto, get maps, listen to something that isn't the radio without fiddling with my phone then it should do for me.

Yeah,that was my first thought, that or the starter motor. More than likely being the battery. Had to get them to replace the battery in a few cars in the past. Booked in for Tuesday for that, the dsg issue and the MOT that they said they would have done before I bought the car.

So my pal came round today with his wee carista device and we've got the following codes. The 16401 is incorrect as on VCDS this reads as a tyre pressure monitor.

Christ lol, I went for the 2gb 32gb 😂😂

I don't think it does, I managed to get some on Amazon for around a fiver, I'll find the link. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B079Z9QTHG/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_A3RMJ6RM69BDXKZF1V8R?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 My stereo order is now saying it's left the despatching country. Getting a little giddy lol 😂

Yeah it's a DSG so after a bit of googling I've found the issue. Car only a week in my possession, I can see the dealer dragging their heals over this.

Additionally, I had an error flash up on my screen this mornijg however by the time the initial panic went and I found where the noise came from, the message was disappearing. The only bit I fought from it was 'workshop'

Evening all, I've had my 2015 Octavia for a week now, and have noticed that it doesn't like its first start of the day, engine turns over for a few additional seconds, that feels like a lifetime lol. Other thing that is bugging me is the stop start system. On short journeys it isn't kicking in, which I expect is fair enough given that there isn'tuch time to get the car warmed up etc, but the other was on Sunday. Motorway was jammed and at crawling pace. 3 times the stop start cut the engine and wouldn't restart. It would tick over a couple of times then just stop. Had it in Economy but this shouldn't have been happening, should it?. My thinking is the battery is humped.Either that or the starter motor. Anyone else experienced anything.

That looks pretty straight forward tbh. I think even I could do it lol. What did he do with the blue FM cable though. Looked like he'd just showed you two ends and then chucked them in with the rest of the cables.

Looks like a decent set up, but first question first lol. I saw some reviews saying that there was no install instructions included. How easy is this to install?

Cheers folks

Anyone?? @SashaGrace

I've picked up my Octavia 2.0 TDI and I have a product ID for the stereo. This is 5E0035842A Think it's meant to be a Bolero but not sure lol. I have a very little budget, and I'm looking to get an Android Auto compatible unit. Would I need to have one of the Skoda units or could I say, buy a Sony or a Kenwood and alter space behind the head unit to fit it?

Oh lol. That's that idea out the window then.

How much did all this cost you? I'm waiting to pick up a 2015 Octavia, with what I believe to be the Bolero radio. I need to upgrade it to an android Auto compatible device however I have next to no budget lol
