Retrofit steering wheel
Hi,Cruise control has nothing to do with the multi function steering wheel,if your car came without mfsw most likely you will need a new or used bcm,medium or high, at the moment I'm pretty sure you have low,you need a new steering wheel or just the buttons,the airbag is the same, 4 or 3 spoke.you need a new wiring loom for the airbag and multi function.and then you need to remove the bcm component protection at a skoda dealer or someone with odís.It's not difficult, i did it myself.

Upgrade gearbox from 5 speed to 6 speed
Yes,the car was very cheap, but already had a 5 speed,for 200 euros i got everything needed to make the conversion.i bought the car for 5000 €, plus 200€ of the gearbox, 5.200 €. I'm not quite sure where you will find a 6 speed skoda octavia 3 from 2015 with 115.000 km for 5200.thats basically the reason.

Upgrade gearbox from 5 speed to 6 speed
Hi,i was wondering if anyone has done a conversion from 5 to 6 speed on a skoda octavia 3 1.6 tdi, 81kw, engine cxxb? Or if anyone knows which gearbox will be plug and play? Same axles, same clutch,same starter motor? And will i be able to code the gearbox with vcds or obdeleven? Thanks in advance,cheers.

Infotainment retrofitting
Yes,it is plug and play if you already have the unit on the glove box,if not you need an extension from aliexpress,you can also get the USB from aliexpress,maybe 25 euros altogether.i did the same retrofit,i had a swing unit,had to change cables and everything, but it is straightforward.

Infotainment retrofitting
Hi,the swap is not a straight swap.at the moment you have a display and unit together,if you want to upgrade to colombus or amundsen you need to change the glove box insert to acomodate the new unit,you need a new cable extension and most importantly you will have to deal with component protection and the radio itself can be very expensive,a used unit amundsen coast around 600 euros.plus the insert and work.i would say around 1000 euros for everything.

Enable SmartLink
Hi,by activating smart link you will have access to android auto and Apple car play. I didn't look at the video you posted but I'm assuming it's relating to cracking the unit,it can only be done if you have a unit on the glove box with 2 sd cards.i have my unit cracked and everything works fine.

Retro Fit Power Boot?...
Hi everyone,sorry for going back to such an old thread,but but someone can help me with something concerning this retrofit.i got a donor car and isolated all the cables from boot to bcm,door control module and can gateway,but when i was taking out the whole loom from the donor car i cut all the cables that looked like that had nothing to do with the rear of the car anymore,but later i found out that from the center console button there are 3 cables,and by accident i cut the brown,now the problem is i don't know where that brown is going,can gateway? Body ground?thanks.
