Edela

Then that's the best news. Perhaps they finally run out of older hardware. Before, at least in my case, they were insisting that what catalogue shows according to VIN, that they install, no matter if there are newer and more stable versions available.

They will place the same part according to your VIN, so no changes there. Though before accepting the car, check that all SW is updated to the same version as before. When they were changing my infotainment, they were giving me car back with 1668 every time 🤦‍♂️ If they change only screen, I guess that might not be the case, though I can never be sure that people working on front desk know what they are talking about and what exactly will be changed. So better to double check.

Had it once, disappeared and never came back again.

If car is under warranty, they will eventually fix it. Until it comes up next time. If you have no warranty, reject the car asap since repairs are expensive.

There won't be any fault code. As far as I am aware, it is possible to see logs and see at least reboots there triggered by some errors, but no fault codes as those which prompt messages on dashboard, which workshops use as an excuse to do nothing. You need to record your VIN together with the issue. So make a video of the problem and then move camera to show VIN under the windshield. They can't reject this evidence. Yes, it is. As someone who had 20+ trips to workshops and most of them were because of similar issues, I know. Saying all that, my issue appeared again after I thought that switching off wifi helped. On top of that now volume goes up. Though they were supposed to deal with my infotainment yesterday during planned visit to change gear selector, they did nothing because they "had no connection with Skoda and couldn't do any works" and gave me next appointment in 2 weeks from now. Yay! Love this brand more and more.

That's right. Though I'm curious where the difference in behavior would come from? On low speeds in traffic jam regen does not work, same as I'd expect ICE car with DSG couldn't brake with engine when the speed is too low already.

I can tell only about my experience with PHEV. It actually engages brake too sharply and firmly to my liking. It waits for the car in front to move some distance, release brake fully and starts accelerating to maintain distance. When car in front stops, Octavia comes a bit closer and stops what feels like it if I was pushing brake pedal and not releasing it by the end, so braking would be smoother. Does not feel like feathering the brake at all.

Ok, so I was commenting in this thread earlier without expecting to come later today to my car and find it in an on/off loop When parked at home, infotainment was switching on while car is locked. This time it is wireless AA though. Switched off car's wifi and that solved the issue. Just another example that apart of screen or its buttons there may be many other causes...

I also had all possible issues when it is hot outside (+40 is not uncommon where I live), though workshop insisted it was never an issue with the screen itself, but something else. They could not explain what exactly, they were invoicing change of MIB module and in the end combination of new MIB, new SW on it solved the issue. It reappeared a few times since then but that's about it. So perhaps it is not the screen indeed. That's why I think would be nice if someone gets more details from techs to see what they actually do. Also, mine was starting up during the night in garage as well after being exposed to the heat on the previous day.

Would be very helpful if those who managed to fix problem would give as much tech details here as possible, so others could guide their dealers on what should be done.

Shocks are changed in pairs, so I have all 4 new.

Please keep us updated. I'm curious what could be the problem in your case. Myself I'm looking for some third party garage with proper equipment to check at least shocks, since Skoda can't be bothered beyond visual inspection.

Here is my experience. After I bought my car, it was handling spotlessly on high speeds, which I always liked about this platform, since I had different cars built on it and they were always sticking solidly to the road. I did trips in Germany with half day driving at 170km/h+ and it was just as it should be. Then my front left shock died and car became wobbly even on low speeds. It was changed and just a few days after the rear left died, too. It was changed and at first I thought all problems are solved, but then I started noticing that in some situations car doesn't feel so stable anymore even in city, notably on roundabouts. When I took it on a freeway some time later, it felt like the car is going on its own, like if I'm driving first gen Dacia or smth like that, absolutely no confidence in it sticking to the road. I complained to workshop about that, they did a a few test trips and said all is ok. So now I need to figure out, whether they just don't see the problem (since they don't have equipment to test and ofc they won't bother going with it on freeways to make a proper run) or, with brand new shocks the car is actually worse than with those which were about to die, and then I just need to change my car. No matter what one could say, for me stability on high speeds is crucial.

For the first batch of cars (2020, early 2021) not all problems are solved. And I suspect there is no solution at all, since hardware is very old and there might be no even a possibility to update it. I wouldn't go for a car with H56 no matter on which SW it is running. Also pay attention that there are faulty DSG selectors and it is a costly replacement if wasn't done. As well as possibly a bunch of mechanical issues, like many people reported left shocks dying early (in my case in Spain it costs 750 to change a pair).

And be prepared for Skoda not having any solution to this problem. Just sayin.

Not advising anything, but following other groups with PHEV owners, that seems to be the solution to the problem. Perhaps in the workshop they just do the same as a first thing to try.

That does not sound right for a modern car. Speaking of my Octavia, it shows 1,5-2km/h higher on any speed, be it 20 or 180. Checked both with GPS and radars. Factory fitted 225/45R18.

Yes, wrong. Charger requires about 1kW available to work at all, so with 5W it won't even start up.

Known issue. Battery may be dead as fast as in a few hours, so beware. Until it is fixed, one option is to pull infotainment's fuse overnight. First, update it to SW 1941 or above. Then, if didn't help, you may try to turn off proximity sensor and gesture recognition in infotainment's settings. Another thing to try is putting car in private mode. See if it helps. If not, Skoda will say you have to swap infotainment, that costs around 1500 + tax (in EU) for the for the part only.

Known bug, many people have it, including myself. I don't bother as long as it does not drain battery.

That is actually weird, I always get notification when something is installed. As well as no problem reading what is the update about, as soon as car stops it let me read what's there.

There is TPI for that problem, dashboard firmware update.

Yes. Though they did not explain me if it was only because of infotainment acting up, or there was something else. It coincided with the second replacement that issues with 12V battery discharging stopped.

Look, a few days ago I got another OTA update. This time it added Offers app to my infotainment. What I discovered there? 20% off for cosmetics brand! Not even anything car related. Does that really worth twice shorter warranty? I'm still to witness any SW changes or at least some bug fixes brought by OTA updates, apart of this usual crap we get.
