Boot raised floor
I'm not sure it'll fit a car that doesn't have it as standard. Where are you based? I'd be interested in seeing it it'll fit.

Mine was "fixed" in August but I'm still getting it. I'm told there have been further fixes since then that I need to book in

It's the SOS error. Well documented
-
So many errors...
True but not everyone will use it. It's fixed by a software update that will fix it when it goes in for a service I guess.
-
So many errors...
I guess the big question is if new cars have this issue? I agree it's not good enough that these haven't been fixed but they're never going to recall all of the cars and fix them, it'll cost too much. Better to deal with the issues as they arise.

It was an airbag control module. It still has the SOS pop despite everything being super up to date. It's a great car but I'm questioning if I want to own it outside of it's warranty.

Apparently it had loads of errors when they plugged it in

So many errors...
Yeah mine have been good. They advised recovery so I'm currently in a seat Alhambra. Not the worst car I've ever driven. Just missing my roof bars to carry my canoe...

So many errors...
So after the ambient lighting upgrade that wasn't an upgrade I contacted Skoda and requested a refund. Purely out of principal. The next morning, possibly out of coincidence I get loads of errors. Pictures attached. So it's being recovered to the garage today. Hopefully a quick fix 🤞 More errors

Ambient lighting upgrade
Yes you only get more colours. No extra moods that's I can see. Lights are no brighter either. I was hoping for more

Ambient lighting upgrade
So there's 40% off ambient lighting upgrade making it £25 in the shop. So I thought why not give it a go. Thought I'd post before and after pictures here so people can make up their own mind. This is the only menu that's changed and this is the before picture.

Pop pop,SOS
So my car was in for software on the 19th and still has the SOS error. Got wireless Android auto though 😂 Really not happy that after being without the car for two days they haven't achieved anything!

VRS TSI estate economy
Mine is generally around 35mpg. I can get to 40mpg if I'm being careful. However why on earth would you buy a petrol vrs if fuel economy was a high priority.

Engine Management Light - Dealer Charge For Diagnostic Check
Crazy isn't it. My local garage, indy not Skoda, charge nothing for plugging my car in.

Dynamic Light Assist (DLA) on Matrix LED System
I'm with sneal. Doesn't have the automatic high beam like the wife's golf but they are adaptive matrix lights.

Roof bars - what do you have?
I prefer longer bars as well. The plus side is when I change the car it's a £30 foot pack not a new set of bars
-
Roof bars - what do you have?
Most previous flush rails have still had fixed positions where as these don't. I'll be checking regularly in future. I just feel like it goes against the point of this style of bar as a fit and forget sort of thing. Bars look good though.
-
Roof bars - what do you have?
If the Yakima bars are like mine and tighten using red wing nut type things check them regularly. Just done 300 miles with 2 canoes on the roof and the rear bar had slipped! On checking the front they weren't as tight as I'd done them previously. Might have you add a second nut or some thread lock on them.

SOS Error Message
Thanks. It's coming up saying SOS error on the dash. Drove quite a distance today non stop so the battery should be Ok? Will give them a ring in the morning and see what they say.

SOS Error Message
Just had the SOS error after 16000 miles and about 16 months of pretty faultless ownership 😟 Going to ring Skoda/ dealer tomorrow but loathed to do a 40 mile trip to get it diagnosed before they order any parts. Any advice appreciated on that one. Android auto seems to be playing up now. Not sure if there's a link there?

vRS Engine Cover Recall
Yeah I had notification via infotainment. Bit annoying that they're removing it before replacement is available. Am I right in thinking it's nothing accept aesthetically pleasing
-
Roof bars - what do you have?
Haven't noticed and scratches on mine. I don't take the bars on and off though.
