stripy007 started following Retrofit power tailgate and Keyless Entry
-
It happens a lot to me, too. It is unrelated to the battery, since it has been working like this from the start, and I have also replaced the battery recently. I think having phone and keys in the same pocket interferes with the functionality but it happens sometimes also when I don't have the phone in my pocket. Another "feature" that I don't understand is that sometimes when I press unlock on the fob, only trunk and back doors get unlocked. Both driver and passenger door remain locked until I press unlock again.

Infotainment System Restarting endlessly

@SaXo69 TL/DR: Yes. You can find the answer 7 posts above yours. -
Infotainment System Restarting endlessly

I am back from vacation, so now I have time to do the update. So @Jorgeminator or anyone else who has the 1941, when you have the time, please send me the link. Cheers. -
I washed the key of my old Renault Megane once. The key still worked but from then on each new battery drained in less than a month. So this is not recommended.

The user switch happened to me too with this update. The keyless entry didn't always work for me even before this update. I haven't been paying attention whether this happens if I don't use a car for a while. But sometimes I think the mobile phone that I keep in the same pocket as the car key also prevents keyless entry. I don't know about the last issue because I never payed attention.

Roof bars - Octavia MK4 estate
stripy007 replied to fryeruk's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk IV (2020 > )
Thule 7106 are the carrier feet you need to attach the bars. I have the 7112 wingbars (118cm). I can fit four bikes on it. You will also need 186096 kit. -
I am writing this in case someone has similar problems to mine. I have my native language (Slovenian) set up as the main language. About 10 days ago I started getting a notification about OAA2 update. If I clicked OK, it popped up again, and on the second OK click it disappeared without doing anything. The same happened if I clicked Cancel. This happened every time I started the car. I have tried to access the update via Settings / System Information. I could find the update there. If I clicked on it, the information about it was displayed, but if I clicked Download, nothing happened. Then a few days ago I changed the language to English, and then I was able to click the Download button. The update was (slowly) downloaded and installed. I then switched back to my native language and I also had to select the user again.

It says 140 Nm in the manual: Wheels > Changing the wheel and raising the vehicle > What you should be mindful of https://digital-manual.skoda-auto.com/w/en_GB/show/708c3bafe83886dcac6ba38ab4af34a0_11_en_GB For Octavia III it is 120 Nm.

Anyone ever try this: Autoease Power Liftgate Retrofit?
-
Thanks, but I saw this before and it is way too expensive.
-
I received my Octavia two months ago and so far I am very happy with it. When I was ordering it and selecting additional equipment there was a rather expensive option for a virtual pedal so I decided against it. What I didn't realize is that without it there is also no electric boot functionality. There was no mention of that on the configurator page in my country. I checked the internet and it seems the original power liftgate functionality can be retrofitted, but it costs three times as much as if I ordered it in the beginning. I have to check with my local service but this is definitely too expensive. I saw there are also several third party options which are cheaper. Does anyone have any experience with this and can recommend which solution works best.

The dealer is Vrtač, Kranj. I have waited 10+ months. I have contacted the dealer a few times in the past 10 months but got no information except date being pushed back. The first information I got was the beginning of this month, that the car is going to production.
-
It seems I will go on holidays with a brand new Skoda. Just got an info that the car should arrive to the dealer this week.
-
Received info that my car is going into production. It was ordered in June 21. But I expect I will still go on holidays this year with my 10.5 years old Kia.
