  1. Maybe a good idea for another test. Get four identical cars make and model and see who gets the furthest?
  2. https://www.worldometers.info/gdp/gdp-by-country/
  3. Can it do roundabouts now?
  4. How so? If you mean Tesla. Would Musk have been successful without Kazuhiro Tsuga at Panasonic and their $1.6bn?
  5. People don't want scientific though do they. They want to know what will happen when they drive it. The conditions for all the cars were the same at the time of filming. Actual experience not scientific ideal conditions results.
  6. My car picks up the wifi from my house parked on the drive.
  7. My car has Skoda connect-Remote services The word "care" is missing. Doesn't facilitate locking and unlocking the car etc. but does let you check it's locked and lights are off, see where it is parked. Charge level. Valid until 2026
  8. 2019 The SCALA is the first ŠKODA to be always online thanks to an eSIM built-in as standard; it is also the first of the brand’s cars to come with the latest generation of mobile online services, including individual Infotainment Apps for various online options and extra functions. Using the eSIM, the SCALA establishes a high-speed, LTE Internet connection, meaning there is no longer any need for an additional SIM card or a tethered connection via a smartphone. In the SCALA, the eSIM supports the functionality of eCall and Proactive Service. Mandatory in the EU, eCall automatically makes an emergency call in the event of an accident, but it can also be activated manually at any time. If an accident occurs, Proactive Service relays the vehicle’s position as well as information about its status, for example. Apart from that, it can keep the ŠKODA SCALA in contact with the garage, allowing service notifications to be relayed, service appointments to be scheduled or relevant data to be transmitted in the event of a breakdown. Each time the ignition is switched off; the Vehicle Health Report function now automatically saves all of the information about the condition of the SCALA, which can be accessed via the ŠKODA Connect app. There is no limit to the number of reports that can be accessed each month. Via Info Call, a ŠKODA hotline can be reached at any time for questions about the car. The navigation maps can now also be updated automatically ‘over the air’, as frequently as desired. There is therefore no need to visit a garage. https://www.skoda-storyboard.com/en/press-kits/skoda-scala/always-online-with-esim-skoda-connect-infotainment-apps-and-enhanced-voice-control/
  9. We’ve all heard of 4G and 5G in cellular network technology. But you may have seen the term “4G LTE” and wondered, what does LTE stand for? The short answer is that LTE stands for “Long Term Evolution” and it is most commonly used in connection with 4G, the fourth-generation global wireless communication standard that was first defined in 2008. https://www.digi.com/blog/post/what-is-lte
  10. My enyaq uses Lte LTE was first used in 2015 in Columbus systems according to the storyboard
  11. How many cars are scrapped now just because they will be too expensive to repair to get the emissions down for an mot? "In 2021 alone, a record 1.3 million cars failed the MOT due to high exhaust emissions" Sometimes the repairs necessary exceed the value of the car just the same as your fear over battery life.
  12. Any splits in inter cooler hoses will add to the smoke because warmer air will be getting in the pipe.
  13. I have kept digging for answers, Another possibility to force a reboot of the infotainment and simcard system is to remove fuses 12 and 17 in the dashboard fusebox for a few minutes. But I cannot find confirmation that it works. Or if it will create other problems.
  14. I was hoping you would have started at the top of the screenshot rather than the bottom before paying out any money. I have found another thread that may be useful. There is a possible solution from @LiamXCIII halfway down. To get the car a better signal is it possible you could connect the car to your home wifi or tether it to the mobile phone by making the phone a hotspot?
  15. Have a look there?
  16. The car may not have a good internet connection you can check here
  17. When you set up the Myskoda app on your phone did you confirm your email address with the email they sent? It might help if you go to the Skoda website and look at the user manual for your model year https://www.skoda.co.uk/apps/manuals/models Enter your vin for correct manual. Then look for this page
  18. If the old user was still in the system and it doesn't ask you to log in when you start, would you not have access to the shop on screen? https://digital-manual.skoda-auto.com/w/en_GB/show/8fbb318dd2fa83b7ac14452509c9c191_2_en_GB?ct=4cbe359fafee7179ac14452522767927_2_en_GB#titled5136368e138483
  19. Have you checked the details on the website https://availability.skoda-auto.com/004/en-com#/ https://www.skoda-auto.com/connectivity/connect#activation
  20. B pillar on driver or passenger door opening normally with the weights.
  21. "So as recommended, put in some Forté Diesel System Cleaner and really tuned up. Up and down the M4, 2nd gear up to 50mph, third up to 70mph. Basically on the red line (4.5 revs). In total today it has had about a two hours such driving over a four hour period, but this could only get the result down to 1.3." Did you put the full bottle in and how much fuel was in at the time? My Mot tester told me to put a full bottle in half a tank when it failed and it always passed afterwards. I don't think you are far away from passing it's only 0.5 away and you dropped it 1.5 the first time you did it so another similar run could be enough. Don't forget to check the air filter too. I think you are a long way from needing to scrap it.
