Infotainment System Restarting endlessly
Rimac1970 replied to ScottS's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk IV (2020 > )
varoom Yes, I have a 12v battery and I drive enough to charge the battery. I have recordings where after the vehicle is turned off and locked, the infotainment still works as if the vehicle is running. -

Infotainment System Restarting endlessly

And this is my sad (angry) story about infotainment reboots. 3 weeks ago the restarts started, a black screen after starting the engine that would turn on after a few minutes of driving. The restarts were several times during the drive. I have noticed that the vehicle warns that its battery is low after sitting overnight. The regular service, oil and other things, was scheduled for June 16, 2023 at Škoda's service center. I alerted them to the existing problem. At the end of the service, I was informed that they had checked all the systems and that everything was ok. And that was the prelude to disaster. The next day, 17.06.20023, just a day after the service, after unlocking the vehicle, a warning that the battery is empty. Attempt to start the vehicle, unsuccessful, ligh show on dashboards and total shutdown of the vehicle. Roadside assistance call, ignition via booster. Driving for over an hour to charge the battery. 06/18/2023 same thing. I just managed to unlock the vehicle and that was the end of it. Roadside assistance again, but now with transportation to the Škoda service center. You had to see the confusion and disbelief of the service employees. The vehicle remains in the service, they check everything and install a new version of the software in 1941 (the old one was 1896). And nothing has changed. Occasional reboots. One day it reboots, the next it doesn't. Even today, it's a disaster. The battery is so empty that the vehicle cannot be unlocked. I think I know what's causing it, but I'm not sure how to fix it. When the infotainment starts to restart, it does not stop shutting down the vehicle, it continues. Recently, there is no logout message when I turn off the vehicle. Today is a non-working day and I can only call the service tomorrow. I would prefer to put it under a hydraulic press. This is my fourth new Škoda and never more. I'm angry, annoyed. Sorry for the long post, the sequel will follow :(
