Hopefully, a good 3 hour drive may fix the problem.

I agree it's not impossible for a faulty component to have been installed at the factory but I find it best to eliminate other simpler possibilities before taking it to the main dealer for a diagnosis and repair under warranty. They will initially almost certainly just dismiss with charging the battery back up properly then giving it the customer back. Especially stop/start because there are so many reasons it deactivates. If the op had said the crossed out a was not visible it may be different. But that does suggest it's working. One question i have missed is "When the op charged the battery where did he connect the negative lead of the charger if the battery remained connected in the car?" and "What charger was it and for how long?" sorry that's two questions.

When the a with the line through it appears it means the stop/start system is operating but has chosen not to stop the engine because the battery is not within the parameters required for the system to function. There maybe too many other demands on the battery Aircon, cooling fan , headlights, heated seats etc. Or the battery is below 80% or a combination of all above. I would doubt the battery or alternator have a fault with the age of the car. Potentially it is use and the demands of the eu that is stopping it working. To explain or prove that theory needs a bit of the cars history What is the mileage now and what was it three months ago at 9-10 month old. Are your trips often or not and short or long journeys https://www.varta-automotive.com/knowledge/articles/article-details/start-stop-does-not-work

Do you not see either when it is working?

Do you get either of these on the display

AI Overview On an Octavia 2.0 TDI (BMM engine) from 2008, the thermostat is located on the engine block under the thermostat housing. This housing is connected to a main coolant hose, and you'll need to drain the coolant and remove the hose and housing to access the thermostat.

This is a strange one Fully loaded but it's somehow done 6,000 mile in a month Škoda Car Stock Locator detail -...Check out this Škoda KodiaqTake a look at this Kodiaq SportLine (5 seats) available at Lookers Škoda (Stockport), Stockport, St Marys Way

You could end up with more options.

Why not save money with one from stock https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-search?aggregatedTrim=SportLine&channel=cars&fuel-type=Petrol%20Plug-in%20Hybrid&fuel-type=Petrol%20Hybrid&make=Skoda&model=Kodiaq&postcode=m45%206dj&sort=relevance&year-from=new

Doesn't appear to be the tractor unit or the car above it. Could a trailer tyre burst into flames?

have you tried cleaning the windscreen?

Do you always have 3 people and luggage?

I am sure they will be quite happy with him paying over £14,000 a year to drive about in the new car

The £600 a year for five years will help

How much did they charge for fixing it? a clockspring is normally three figures, they may have cleaned it to improve the contacts. I agree with others who say your battery readings look fine.

Could be battery related or a bad earth to body but i would suspect the clockspring which is a component in the steering column that allows for the electrical connection of various steering-wheel-mounted controls, including the wiper stalk, to the vehicle's electrical system, while the auto-wipers' control and activation are managed by a rain sensor and the wiper stalk's position. The clockspring serves as a crucial intermediary for all electrical connections from the steering wheel, ensuring components like the auto wiper control function proper

Is the globe not the car's connection and the place where the red cross is your phone signal?

I wouldn't associate a flashing glow plug lamp and engine limp mode to a gearbox fault Wait and see if any codes are stored if any.

Twelfth month stats from the car Aug-Sep Includes 256mile to Devon 468mile @ 4.2m/kwh = 111.42 kwh. (120kwh Dc charging £57.45) + [email protected] (£9.14) = £66.68 My Mondeo would have averaged 60 mpg for 256m 0f these 468miles (£25.90) and 35mpg for 212milesm @£1.349 litre (£36.77) = £62.67 Long term guessometer now reset. Stat from the GOM the car has been on for 19.49 hours and averaged 24mph. For anyone interested in the twelve month totals. My electricity cost has been £466.26 Diesel would have been £709.79. If I had a Home wallbox and a smart tariff of 7ppkwh My "home" charging would have been £70.32 making my total ev figure for the year £348.37 so I could have saved another £117.89 Which would probably pay for having a wallbox in 8 years.

@JR RS Yours appears to be a different infotainment unit than the one enquired about

Not visible on this 2021 screenshot, In your picture the seat graphic obscures three of the buttons on the climate screen, maybe you have to press the cog on the right?

The handbook states that the adjustment is in the infotainment display in vehicles with Heated and ventilated seats. If they are only heated it is not. https://digital-manual.skoda-auto.com/w/en_GB/show/8d820b23bfa5b7f8ac1445250665945f_1_en_GB?ct=d13c4b0b9be21429ac14452554c76cb5_1_en_GB#titled31e17193
