Does f not show on your dashboard?

This may help? https://www.catcar.info/audivw/?lang=en&l=c3RzPT17IjEwIjoiQnJhbmQiLCIyMCI6IlNLT0RBIiwiNDAiOiJTdXBlcmIgRXVyb3BlIiwiNTAiOiIyMDExIiwiNjAiOiJCb2R5IiwiNzAiOiI4NDUwMCJ9fHxzdD09NzB8fGJyYW5kPT1za3x8bWFya2V0PT1DWnx8bWRsPT1TVVAgIHx8RXBpcz09NjMyfHxFaW5zYXR6PT0yMDExfHxNYWluR3JvdXA9PTh8fEJpbGR0YWZlbD09ODQ1MDB8fEdyYWZpaz09MDg0NTAwNjMy

Depending upon which model from that year you have the dials alter. One configuration has "climate control" which you set the temp and it automatically operates the fans as and when it feels necessary to achieve your target temp. https://ownersmanuals.blob.core.windows.net/ownersmanuals/en/Yeti_5L/05-2011/OwnersManual.pdf

Temperatures in Cambridge today. How cold do you want the cabin to be?

Try turning the heating off before exiting the car the night before? It may start the engine because the a/c heater is switched on?

Have the mods made any difference to your insurance premium?

What did the RAC technician suggest?

Is the steering wheel straight when you are driving straight? Could be wheel alignment or a faulty Steering angle sensor. is there any point in the steering wheels turn that both lamps are off?

Thanks for that. The actual statement in 2022 said "Removal of exemption" https://www.gov.uk/government/news/autumn-finance-bill-2022-published So the rest of the newspaper story is theoretical based on the current rates. Also saying it is the first retrospective change would be incorrect because when i first started driving a Private hire vehicle in the 1980s Cars "registered as "Private hire/hackney" were exempt and the exemption was removed later.

I think it was announced in the statement for the changes in 2017 so that would mean it is not a retrospective application?

My understanding was that post 2017 EV's will have to pay band B rates from 2025 which at the moment is £170, https://heycar.com/uk/blog/electric-car-road-tax-rates-and-ved-bands

The optimum age was the 2001- April 2017 rates when people where encouraged to buy low co2 cars. Now they are set to encourage those buying cars that were over £40k to switch to electric and save over £3,000 in Ved over 6 years

All cars since 1/04/2017 Some people getting nasty shocks when they find out why the dealer included the first year ved in the sale price of a second hand car

You can change it. If you have no book you can download it at https://www.skoda.co.uk/apps/manuals/models

What happens if you press it twice? Have you looked in the owners manual?

https://www.skoda.co.uk/apps/manuals/Detail?model=Rapid_NH&edition=05-2013&market=&manualLang=en There appears to be an adjustment possible in Blues and amundsen but cannot find it in the swing

I think Musk started it All Teslas now have autopilot when built. Autopilot is an advanced driver assistance system that assists your car with steering, accelerating and braking for other vehicles and pedestrians within its lane. It assists with the most burdensome parts of driving and work alongside features like emergency braking, collision warning and blind-spot monitoring. With Full Self-Driving (FSD) capability, you will get access to a suite of more advanced driver assistance features, designed to provide more active guidance and assisted driving under your active supervision. If you have not already purchased FSD capability and your vehicle has FSD computer 3.0 or above, you can subscribe to FSD capability from the Tesla app or your vehicle’s touchscreen.

If it will bring down the initial price of the Car purchase, making some of the technically available software tweaks optional with a one off purchase price is a great idea. There are loads of nonsense gubbins that has been added to cars to reduce the driving experience we could live without.

The VW CCZA engine was used in that many Brands/models i wouldn't think the age would be far off the build date of the car?

Driving mode can be assigned to a key in "Personalisation" Page 57 https://ownersmanuals.blob.core.windows.net/ownersmanuals/en/Octavia_5E/07-2019/OwnersManual.pdf

I would imagine the "locked garage" would only adjust the underwriters assessment of the risk of theft. But would increase the risk of accident. "on a driveway" could be the best risk option depending upon the area?

I thought if the water was deep . It would have to be at the same level inside and outside to be able to open the door, or is that just in the films?
