Fair play mate, that is a solid explanation. I would not have a had a clue tbh that was how it all worked so great to get the knowledge. Much appreciated.

I have a service booked in for May 11th under Guarantee. The clutch sticking hasn't happened since that first time so I dunno, bit strange. It definitely didn't get caught on the car mat or anything, clutch well away from it.

I'd be the same man, wouldn't attempt it eve though I've watched a step by step on Youtube. I am lucky as I only bought the car in February and I have a guarantee so I'll be making use of it!

Damn, full master cylinder, what sort of price are you talking at with labour?

Thanks, and where would one bleed the clutch? I am not a great mechanic. After 500km round trip today, clutch was fine so not really sure if we are at critical levels yet but the other day could easily been a warning sign.

Hi, I'm here after searching int he forum as this issues happened me today. The clutch got stuck depressed as I left my housing estate. I toed it back out and pumped a few times and seemed ok but obviously a bit worried now. Heading on a long drive tomorrow. My mate who is big into cars immediately said slave cylinder! I'll have to bring it to the garage and get checked. 2017 Octavia VRS estate Manual

No it was already there for me mate

Weird alright! I had a Oneplus before the Huawei, fantastic phone. Samsung v OnePlus, bit like VW v Skoda lol , same parts but the latter just offers more

App seems to be downloaded from the store and functioning ok. It's like the Skoda system won't read the data transfer.

Not sure mate but it worked for me today with another phone. I don't actually have the NAV button my my infotainment but I want to use Google maps so that was what was annoying me.

Hi Guys, All sorted today.....using my Samsung Galaxy A51 work phone. Plugged into and Android Auto came straight up. Was using the maps and calls everything. So the issue is definitely my Huawei although even though I do know about the Google malarky with Huawei, the services are all supposed to be fully functional on mine. It was only to be new model phones brought out after that decision was made. Ohhh America worried about spying on people..the ****ing irony! I tweaked every setting on my Huawei from Developer mode usb options to the AA app but nothing would activate it so there has to be something stopping it. Anyway, not ideal but I can bring the work phone when required until I get a new personal phone. I only wanted this for long journeys anyway. The Huawei does connect by Bluetooth where I can play my few tunes ...most important! I must say this Skoda site is absolutely fantastic and you guys have been bloody great in helping thanks! I've found out so much stuff here about different things with the car.

ok guys latest update, Stiill no joy after activating some developer options, reinstalling android auto to latest version. Nothing. Plugged in my wifes iphone 11 and up it comes no prob. I have found a blog that says Huawei phones are notoriously temperamental with android auto. I will try another cable as a last resort but failing that... I need a new phone!

Hopefully it will work now thanks

Wanderer, I think you might have sorted me mate! I activated and went into Developer mode and there is an option to select USB configuration and in that it was set to CHARGE ONLY. There is media transfer protocol there so I'll try that tomorow. Hopefully that does the trick. Marky thanks for your input too mate. The options are there but just greyed out. Legends, I'll let ye know tomorrow if it works!

Nik the Geek, this is what I was wondering, does it need a code to be activated or does the option not show up at all if you don't have the function. I'll check that out with Skoda tomorrow thanks.

thanks folks, I am going to try my wife's iphone & cable to se will that work. My P20 has android auto and I even updated the app and cleared cache etc.

Hi Skoda friends, First post on forums ever, forgive me if in the wrong section and feel free to relocate. I recently purchased a 2017 MK3 Octavia Estate VRS 2.0. Photo attached. I am absolutely delighted with all the new upgrades in spec from my beloved 2009 Mitsu Lancer. While I seem to have Smart link on my infotainment, I cannot seem to get it connected to my Huawei P20 smart device. See update details attached. When I plug in the USB cable the phone activates charging but the Apple Car Play and AA are all greyed out. I am very confused as to why it is not connecting and I would like to note that I have actually searched these forums and google in general and can rule out many issues such as debugging etc. I can see online that my system is the MIB2 Bolero. Any idea why the functions are greyed out? I don't have NAV on mine so I wanted to use my Android phone with Smart Link 😕 Your knowledge really appreciated.
