It turns out it was something much simpler. The PCV valve wasn’t functioning properly and the GPF couldn’t regenerate. After replacing the valve, the issue resolved itself following a 20 km drive. Hope this helps someone else in the future. Cheers!

Hello! Thanks for your reply! Yes, it does, even with a warm engine. Regardless of conditions, the revs don’t drop. On the other hand, it seems to respond correctly to load in every gear, turning on the air conditioning, etc. The temperature gauge appears to be reading correctly.

The main dealer assured me that all parameters were checked. Another mechanic inspected the intake valves and other possible sources of unmetered air, but without any conclusion. I replaced the battery as well, mainly to rule out any issues related to electrical consumers or low voltage.

Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with a 2019 Skoda Rapid 1.0 TSI (DKLD, 95HP). The idle speed stays at around 1400 rpm and doesn’t drop after the first 30–60 seconds as it normally would. The engine sounds a bit louder and the instantaneous fuel consumption is higher during the initial warm-up (which is normal), but the revs just don’t come down afterwards. The battery has recently been replaced, and the spark plugs were changed last year. I’ve been to two garages so far (including a main dealer), but they couldn’t find anything wrong. No fault codes on diagnostics, all parameters look fine, no warning lights on the dash, and the car drives normally otherwise. The ECU software version has been checked, adaptations reset, the car was left overnight with the battery disconnected, and the intake hoses were inspected — nothing found. Instant fuel consumption at idle is about 0.7–0.8 l/h. I also did a 120 km motorway run in case it needed a regeneration, but it made no difference. Has anyone else run into this, or have any ideas what might cause a high idle like this?

I will take care right away. Do you think this has something to do with the error i'm encountering?

Hi, thank you for answering! It's weird that when the error appeared in the first place (with the 5w30), it showed for 7-8 times in two weeks. Immediatley after the second oil change (0w20), the problem was gone for 3-4000km. I haven't changed the spark plugs yet.

Hello everyone and sorry if the subject was discussed in another topic. I drive a 2019 Rapid 1.0 TSI with 120000km on dash. After an oil change at a Skoda dealer service - they recomended Castrol 5w30 504.00 - after 3-4000km the EPC light appeared with P000B00 "B" Camshaft Position Slow Response Bank 1. The error showed up from time to time only after a cold engine start and goes away by it self alfter a few minutes. When the engine is warm, I have no problem at all. I returned to the same service and they told me that one solution was to switch the camshaft sersors and VVT solenoids to determine if one of it is faulty. After the camshaft sensors were switched, the same error reapeared. Then I decided to change the oil again with 0W20 508.00 Castrol LL IV. And surprise, for a few thousand km the EPC light never showed up. But now, after another 3-4000km with the 508.00 oil, i get the same error - Camshaft Position Slow Response. Did anyone had the same problem? Is wierd that after the oil change, I didn't have any problems without changing anything else. Thanks!
