If anybody is looking for the information. 70mm bump stops are fitted to my car. Confirmed by measurement of the bump stop.

From what I can see, they should be roughly 55mm in length, but I need to confirm.

I have just found a leak on my front RH shock absorber. The car is fitted with DCC, so I am looking at replacing it with the Monroe "aftermarket parts" and also replacing the protection kits and top mounts while I am at it. Does anybody know what the correct bump stop length is for the iV, or how I can find out?

I could not see any obvious way of removing the charging flap separately from the bumper, so I took the bumper off and replaced the actuator. There is no coding of the new part to be done. My actuator is now working again.

I see that you are supposed to be able to remove the actuator without removing the bumper? ErWin is no longer available to private individuals, so does anybody have access to confirm where the locking tabs are?

It has started to play up again, so it is time to change the actuator. Looking forward to pulling the bumper off in this heat, so I have got the actuator in the closed position, so I can wait until the weather cools down a bit.

I have just had this issue. Mine seems to be fixed now though. To do this I lubricated the plastic moving part will a small amount of silicon grease. It is early days to claim a victory though, as I "fixed" it at the weekend, so 4 days ago.

Back from the garage. An SOS repair kit was fitted (part number 5WA998085C) which costs less than €10 but including the labour, it cost me less than €200. Much better than the cost of replacing the OCU itself.

A small update on this point. Unbeknown to me, I had an extended warranty on the car when I bought it, so alI finally took the car in to get it fixed on Monday (after the service, fault check, warranty claim etc.) and I was told that it is not the OCU that needs changing, but a smaller, less expensive part. I don't have the detail yet, but the car is going back in on Friday for the fix. Total cost is about €200. I will update the detail when I have it.

Three faults. Everything but the 5F, so I think we are looking at a replacement OCU3.

I have cleared the 5F fault.

I made an error with the VCDS and selected the car make and model, rather than doing a CAN auto select scan. 🤡 New full scan attached. My thoughts are (hopefully) it is a software issue (based on the J794 1555 - Check Software Version Management error code).

Ok, new scan done. Less errors It helps when you follow the instructions of the VCDS. 😉 I will upload the file later.

I have already tried this. It does not work.

I have the dreaded "SOS call fault: please visit workshop" This appeared shortly after the dealer updated my software last year.

The below are the fault codes for the OCU in my car. (The entire log is attached). Is this likely to be a software fix, or am I looking at a part replacement?

Thanks for the feedback. I need to investigate further.

Mrs H recently bought a Fabia IV. It does not have a rear view camera, and she would like me to fit one. I have seen the OEM kit for sale locally, so the question is, just how difficult is it to fit?

Mrs H has recently taken ownership of a 1.0tsi. I think it is the 90BHP version. She previously had a 2005 2.2dci X-trail and is loving the Fabia. Only thing she regrets is she did not get one with a reverse camera.

Another question regarding the update. Shortly after the dealer upgraded my firmware, I now have the SOS error message, and the emergency call button is red. I assume I need to check the OCU version on my car, and also look at the triggered fault using VCDS?

Le concessionnaire (à Montauban) a fait la mise à jour de ma voiture gratuitement. Ils ont dû faire trois mises à jour. The dealership (in Montauban) updated my car for me, free of charge. They needed to do three updates.

Had my car serviced today at the Skoda dealership. There is a new guy in charge of the service department. I asked him if they could update the firmware. 3 hours later, I left with firmware 330 installed, and my car working fine. Much easier than trying to do it myself.

Me too. Finding time to tackle it was the biggest issue, but I managed it without taking the bumper off. I was feeling a bit tough last time I did it, and there was a chance that I did not properly connect the connector. When I dropped the left hand wheel arch, I could get my hand In enough to check the connector.

Left side chassis leg connector was loose. Many thanks.

Just measured the front and rear toe settings, using my TrackAce. The rear suspension has a total toe in of 30’ so is out of tolerance, but not by much. The front was in tolerance, so I guess the next step is to get a 4 wheel alignment done.
