Presuming the journalist in question has a Škoda, reads Forum posts and, given the number of similar issues, attaches any credibility to my comments, I would have thought this would have provided him or her sufficient incentive to establish their veracity.... not that this was my intention in making my foray in to the world of Škodas !

Why on earth should this matter when no names are mentioned but where a potentially valid reason for such faults has been suggedted?

How many Škoda drivers have experienced the need to do a factory reset in order to prevent unsubstantiated warning triangles from appearing or lane control and idle-stop from being implemented or disabled? OK, so I understand the various conditions that can influence whether the engine cuts out or not - but what if none of those conditions exist? I was told my my Škoda dealer that the Korean microprocessor that governs these events is not fit for purpose and that this is well known within VAG. My 2019 Scala is excellent in most respects but is very low mileage and not due for another service for some months, at which point it has been suggested that this particular chip will be replaced.... In the meantime, would any Škoda/VAG engineer reading this like to shed any more light?
