Hicks1978

Update from my side. Skoda fixed. It was a 3 week repair due to waiting process for the parts to come from fabric. In the end, it was a factory error in the shifter box. 3 gears and synchroniser were faulty enough to give me a tough shifting experience. They said they never saw that before in kodiaq, but hey, they could have said anything. Not happy with the fault but at least I got it sorted under warranty. Shifts well now.

Have exactly the same issue. Switching from first to second or third to second.. Kind of got used to it by finding a perfect spot while shifting but now I'm sick of it. It's not even a 2 year old car. So I went to dealers and scheduler a repair in May. They said they need to open the car and then they'll see what's busted but for sure it's recognized as a problem. They mentioned gear shaft, gearbox.. My eyes popped out. Car would presumably be fixed in a week. Will keep you posted.

I can tell you this much. I received my Kodiaq end of last year (Skoda Kodiaq FL Sportline) and it basically can work wirelessly although I did not buy that wifi charger or navigation unit as I'm used to google maps which suit me just fine. Which is why sellers here also did not know if wifi would work. But it works with a few problems as opposed to when its connected with cable. 1. It seems I have some volume issues in navigation while I'm on wireless. When the narrator speaks "turn left.. then turn right". The second part of sentence (probably concatenated) is extremely low volume. Seems that volume control only works for the first part of narrated sentence. Totally strange. Only way to fix that was to connect with the cable or just mute the narrator which is good enough for me. 2. Navigation display on the main screen (behind the wheel) - the icons where to turn and distance which is showed if you have navigation turned on does not work sometimes (says compass is missing or something similar). Only way to fix is to shift to another display like vehicle status and shift back to show navigation info. It will happily pick up and show next turn and work from then on. This does not really bother me as I rarely look over there if I have maps on the infotaiment brought up but still someone might have a problem.. I have no clue if this has anything to do with my old(ish) phone (S10) or its tied to the car system. But for the cable, definitely try to find a short one, long one just makes a chaos upfront specially if it's a bit sturdy.
