13 volts as soon as the engine turned

Just to add I checked the battery tonight and it's resting at 11 volts!!

Thank you, just had to find 2.5k for a boiler so even 200 is out of my pocket for a bit. No I haven't seen the sticky page, but I'll try and find it

Thanks for the reply, I'm struggling to find the part number for a second hand siren alarm, can you help at all? Plenty on ebay but when I message them they don't know if it's the correct poart

Hello, I have a 2012 octavia estate and over the last week the alarm has been going off intermittently. Last night it was 3am which woke my kids, myself and didn't endear me to the neighbours. I have engaged the button on the internal column but it still went off last night. I'll be honest recently I've had some expensive repair bills at home and can't afford to call my mechanic. Is there a fuse for the alarm I can remove to stop it going off, without it affecting anything else on the car? I've already changed the key fob battery and the car battery is only a year old

My sat nav isn’t working and now neither is the song display when on media playing music, or the back and forward buttons on steering wheel. Volume and phone and trip computer buttons work fine, any help please?

Thanks for replying, the sat nav is working fine, I used it this afternoon

Good afternoon, I've found today that the signal from my Amundsen + radio is very poor on some stations, BBCR2 and R4 and just mostly static on other stations such as smooth, greatest hits etc. Pretty certain the radio isn't DAB as the option isn't offered as a band. The info button which usually displays the station, song etc is also saying no radio text. The car is 2012 is this makes any difference. Thank you for any advice

I’ve been told pressing the info button next to the cd eject rectifies it, I shall try in the morning

Can anyone help please. I have a 2012 Octavia and when I first had the car the radio display showed the station and the name of the song currently playing on the radio. Now I just have this standard display, is there a setting I’ve pressed by accident, any help appreciated. Don’t think it’s DAB as only fm and am options are offered

No, I haven't updated anything, tbh I wouldn't know how. I've had the car a year and my dad owned it for three years previously

Can anyone help, sat nav stopped working at 330am just before I needed it for a journey this morning.

Hi, I'm currently away and leaving the dogs in the car cages, is there a way of temporarily disabling the alarm as I can't lock the car as the alarm goes off. Thanks

Hi, i posted earlier on the mark 2 section. Pedal stuck on floor and fluid leak, had the same two weeks ago and faulty master cylinder changed, went again today. Awaiting mechanic on Tuesday. I'm hoping it's something like a burst pipe or a simple fix. I've only had the car a few months and spent enough on repairs

Thank you, got it booked in for Tuesday. 8hrs at the roadside waiting for recovery wasn't the best 50th birthday.
