  1. Have you tried the reset of hvac system? Wwhen it’s done, take care out of auto then set your heat to like 20oC and should feel warmth as long as it’s cold enough outside and inside
  2. Awesome glad to hear it and good to know that much bigger sd cards have no issue For the 1 file and 2 folders is was just selecting all three at once but kinda hard to explain
  3. Awesome, maps are released bi annually, after a few goes you’ll be doing this with your eyes closed
  4. You would need to inform insurance company as it’s a change
  5. Ah different layout completely so most likely not that From your video I believe that sound is normal, just about to go in mine so I’ll see if it does the same, never noticed it though
  6. If it’s a similar setup to the Passat when you press the pedal down it’ll push on the brake pedal switch. Have a look for that and push the switch down and see if it’s that making the noise, if it is then some silicone spray and applying some grease on top of the switch should sort it
  7. I’ve noticed more cars having tyre size 235/40/19 so I don’t think it’s the case of a huge difference in cost compared to a few years ago, about the same these days
  8. I’ve got the SEL with 235/45/19’s and it’s very comfortable, standard suspension with a wheel arch gap the size of the English Channel. Wofts along nicely and can have a conversation unlike my father in laws Audi a4 black edition, literally shakes you to death that as it’s much lower than mine. Is your model sportline, l&k as they are lowered by 15mm I think but seems to make a big difference
  9. Any questions let me know I forgot to put at the bottom, go for a drive whilst maps are updating, when safe check the progress is going Once it’s done it’ll go back to the maps screen, then go back to version info and you’ll see all the versions have changed from your current 2017 version. Also something to note, one of the pictures you uploaded has the update button which looks different to mine, but it’ll do the same thing
  10. Hopefully will be good, ignore some of the pictures are in the darkmode and not, i switched to a different PC. There's a lot of steps, but dont worry it's easy enough I just wanted to be more in depth for you Skoda Columbus Map Update.pdf
  11. I’ll be writing the guide shortly, I’ll attach it as a pdf hopefully
  12. OP has Columbus going by the picture Did you have a look to see if you had a microsd to sd card converter?
  13. Hello, just to confirm that you have an adaptor to put your microsd card into one of these (top of picture) I’m guessing your 512GB micro SD is like the bottom one, but you’ll need to insert that into the top picture
  14. Ah so the Skoda card is no good. 512GB will be too big to format (completely wipe) to change it to FAT32 like Skoda asks for however the drive I use is formatted to NTFS which always works so we can certainly try it. If the above makes no sense don’t worry. Please makes sure whatever is on your 512GB card is copied somewhere as tomorrow you’ll be completely wiping it and lose anything on it. In the meantime go to your car tomorrow and look at the windscreen bottom right you’ll see your vin number, write this down or take a photo of it (don’t post it here, no need) but you’ll need this tomorrow Depending on my workload tomorrow at work I will write the guide at some point
  15. Where you saw it has 14.8GB free, it should say something like 14.8GB free of XXGB It’ll say total size when you right click and select properties, you can take a picture from your phone and upload it here. Tomorrow I’ll make the guide for you Here’s an example
  16. Oh great stuff, plug the Skoda SD card into the adaptor then plug into your laptop Go to Computer and you’ll see the SD card there, can you see what size it is? Should say below the card in Computer, if not right click the card and click on properties then let me know the size, hopefully it’s around 32GB
  17. Thanks, so your laptop does not have an SD card slot. If you don’t have something like this already you’ll need to buy one https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jiasoval-2-0-Card-Reader-SD-Black/dp/B07S2Z8Y31/ref=asc_df_B07S2Z8Y31?mcid=369ff21bec0a3eed9403595e9cbbc59c&tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696386561224&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1524839333522385496&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9199185&hvtargid=pla-813533712854&psc=1&gad_source=1#aw-udpv3-customer-reviews_feature_div As I’m not sure what size the Skoda card you pictured is, it’s best to buy this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ultra-HD-Video-Premium-Memory-Integral/dp/B07FB7NQF7/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?crid=2HOSZF27PJZB2&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.6AbWHkR_OS00jFOLQugllw7EqzhT7qFlwffybTydWmNQttQUuTZbyZDoiCgCPJekq0l49OTYJLd9ceaPhwT_67rFBk3bf2eIoecR5rSM1kXCXN2aImfGC4v_7icF3upuc0kVsEvC1gtD93t4F4Pevef8mGJrGxaGsSUcV4V1nanmiHXT7YyP8hoLnn53Etzp0JepJzVQAYVzEKgMxLpnaA.OTSMKKAaHIX516eVxkk1VGR9jCyuAQGdwvfdVHiDQFs&dib_tag=se&keywords=64gb+sd+card&qid=1741541788&sprefix=64gb+sd+card%2Caps%2C119&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfYXRm&psc=1 Then on your laptop you’ll plug the top item into number 2,5 or 7 Once you’ve got that lot delivered, let me know and I’ll write the guide up
  18. Can you find the model number? Usually under the bottom If it has an SD card slot then I won’t need to go that in detail Does your current SD card look like the top one
  19. I can write a detailed step by step if you like? My profession is IT so I always write guides for things for various abilities. Whats the make and model of your pc/laptop and is it Windows?
  20. It says for normal smooth discs, ie non drilled/grooves but only for maximum comfort
  21. Have a look in the manual, it’s by design and you won’t be able to ignore “Personal data Personal customer data is collected, processed and used by Škoda Auto in accordance with the generally binding legal provisions.

  22. I bet that was quite a sickening experience but glad it’s all worked, far braver than I am
  23. I’m happy with ATE ceramics, just make sure you fit them the correct way (goes for most pads these days, they’ll be a small arrow or crescent moon shape) But I’ve not actually put the ceramics on my car, only my wifes Fiat 500, but a friend of mine has them on his beemer, drives like a loon and still clean wheels and excellent braking. It’s what I’ll be fitting on mine when needed
  24. That sounds more like a security notification, who exactly are you sharing your location with? 100% I’d turn it off
  25. I thought DSG gearbox oil + filter is every 40k miles where applicable and not every 80k?
