connect car to use phone as a hotspot
I can connect my iPad to my phone so it does work, not sure how you check if it is set to share data. My daughter has connected her tv to her phone to stream so hers works but not with the car

connect car to use phone as a hotspot
Hi Has anyone managed to set their phone as a hotspot and get the car to connect to it to use your phone data. It is a Kodiaq 70 plate. I cannot get it to connect as it just says connection failed, my daughters phone says the same when she tried. I have a MIB3 columbus system. I have turned off the esim and in the wifi settings, I can see my phone and after I enter the password it just says connection failed, tried changing the password but still no luck. It will connect to my home wifi network without a problem when parked in the drive but not able to connect to a phone. I was trying to use the internet radio but it will not work on the built in esim but will on the home wifi. Any help would be greatfull.

Retrofit USB-C by mirror
Would the usb port supply enough power for the dashcam and do they power off when the car is turned off, I know the 12 volt sockets stay powered all the time.

Iphone as a hotspot not connecting
I was trying to listen to something on internet radio and it will not work through the esim. It works when connected my home Wi-Fi, only good when outside the house, so thought I would try and get it working through my phone as a hotspot and you need to turn the esim off to turn on Wi-Fi.

Map update and radio logos MIB3 system
I don’t think you can update an MIB3 system in the UK either and still rely on OTA updates. Even though the update portal says how to do it I have not seen any posts of anyone in the UK doing it.

When would you manually activate the parking brake?
Over a year with my Kodiaq and don't think I have toutched the park brake button. I just use the auto hold and let the car sort everything out and not had a problem. On boxing day coming home I got stuck in traffic due to an accident, I was just sat with the auto hold on and travel assist active and after a bit the car binged, applied the park brake and turnned off the travel assist as we had not moved for quite a while. I just let the car do what it thinks is best with the park brake 😜

Travel assist steering wheel sensor faulty

Travel assist steering wheel sensor faulty
I would keep calling and emailing them to fix it. If in the future you either sell the car, you dont want a buyer testing the heated steering wheel and have the travel assist error pop up or if in for an MOT and they turn it on and the error comes up, not sure now if any fault lights are an MOT failure ( I am sure someone will know ).

Travel assist steering wheel sensor faulty
My travel assist problems seem to have been fixed. Another new steering wheel fitted ( steering wheel already replaced once with the error still appearing ) or the software to fix the sos must have done it, but no idea which one fixed it, maybe a bit of both.

Map update and radio logos MIB3 system
Cheers for the reply. I did think it was strange that it was saying you could manually update the maps now but I am sure I read somewhere that Skoda were going to make it possible for manual updates on MIB3 systems, but I guess it may be for newer cars from the factory not ones already on the road. I am not too worried about the maps, just wanted to try and get the radios logos so the screen looks nicer when listening to the radio.

Map update and radio logos MIB3 system
Hi, Has anyone managed to put radio logos into a MIB3 info system or uppdate the maps manually. The update portal says you can now update maps via usbc for MIB3 systems, but I don't think I need to do that yet, but was hoping that you could do radio logos but it still wil not find them on my usb drive. Cheers

Software bug with clock?
The car had a service last month so maybe they updated it, the only OTA updates recently have stated they were for the shop. This car cannot be manually updated only either in the garage or over the air.

Software bug with clock?
I have the columbus system in my car. I have added a video, is that what you were meaning. The sound at the end when the clock changes is just my dash cam turning off. IMG-60721.mp4

Software bug with clock?
Yes definitely an MIB3 head unit, car is a 70 plate. I just turned the engine off and sat there for about 5 mins and the clock was working as it should.

Software bug with clock?
Just tested mine and the clock changes. Turned the engine off and waited and the clock changed and also opened and closed the door and turned the info system on and the clock changed time.

Travel assist steering wheel sensor faulty
So far the new steering wheel seems to have fixed the fault. 🤞 Driven it a few times with and without the steering wheel heating turned on and no Travel Asist errors,

This is the second steering wheel replacement. First didn’t fix it so fingers crossed this one will.

I had the same and they have just replaced the steering wheel for the second time. Not had time to drive the car to see if it is really fixed

Clock not changing
I only asked as I have had the car since before the clocks changed last october, and I have not had to manually change the clock until now.

Clock not changing
Anyone else had to manually set the clock since they went back. It is set for GPS source so thought it would do it automatically but it didn’t.
