Registered User name has disappeared on Welcome message
I don't think this is a big problem. How far from your dealer are you? Log it as a fault and ask them to fix it on the next service. My dealer made me the primary user, it took him 30 seconds with both keys and the app while sat in the car. Which infotainment do you have? There are instructions on page 113 of the manual for Swing, Bolero and Amundsen. Basically you should be able to register a new user via the infotainment. It's either MENU then settings (the gear icon) Or MENU /user / new user/ switch users / register. Need to do it promptly after turning on the ignition. Need your phone with the Skoda app. Also need your e-mail open on the phone.

9 inch Sat Nav
Yes I know that but I was hoping there was an answer to my question. I am going to try putting them into my routes on the SatNav and see how that works out. What I find odd is that the moment I turn off into a motorway Services the SatNav becomes a mine of information about the facilities!

9 inch Sat Nav
The SE-L I bought came with the 9 inch Sat Nav (Amundsen?). Does anybody know how to make it show the Motorway Services when you are Motorway Driving? I've tried ticking Petrol Station as a POI but that does not do the trick. I tend to use the SatNav in a view in the Home screen, does that make a difference?

Loose handle
As a minimum I think you'll need to take the whole door card off and have a look inside the door. If you still have warrantee then let the dealer sort it out.

Have you done anything else like changed the s-PIN? Does the app still connect to the car? If so you could try becoming the primary user again. For both of the above I think you'll need both keys. If not, then I see a trip to the dealer in your future. It is possible to do a reset with assistance from an agent on the phone, or at least this was the case 2 years ago.

Power Feed for Dashcam
That will be the route I'll adopt since I failed to pay for the £355 "upgrade" (Unless I find that the power feed is already in the mirror housing!) 😄

Power Feed for Dashcam
The Kamiq manual suggests a handy USB power feed up by the rear view mirror. I cannot see a USB socket anywhere in that area. It is possible I am being dim or it is possible the "feature" has been deleted. Anybody know for sure?

OK, late to this party. Have you changed your privacy settings? If you have gone for max privacy "man in a hat" then you need to change to one of the less private settings. This might work.

Will it start?
With the type of charger you have it should be safe to leave it connected for extended periods of time. It's designed to support batteries in vehicles that are not used very often. I had one years ago that I had hooked up to a rarely used sports car.

Lane assist is dangerous
OK, a bit of thread resurrection but; We have the Kamiq and a Golf Mk8 (2021 model year). In both cases lane assist can be turned off with two button presses. For the Golf it's a secret not in the handbook. It is disabled in both cars most of the time. It does seem to have some utility on motorways where the lane markings are well defined, in other situations it is very easy for it to be confused IMHO.

Spare Wheel (again)
Back in the old days when the spacesaver was a new thing it was always a recommendation to use the space saver on the rear only. (for FWD cars) The thinking was to prevent differential wear on the driven axle. Given what is written above about the difference in diameters then this is probably good advice.

What is traffication
It seems to have gained some functions. It auto downloaded as part of App Udates the day after I collected the car. A little later I was warned about a speed camera. You do have to pay after the free trial ends. i'll see how it goes and keeping it will depend on cost!

Hidden Speed limiter feature? - temporary override
Virtually all car systems will return control to the driver eventually. The speed limiter is no different AFAIK.

OBD port
Thanks, hopefully won't need it but nice to know where it is. I bought the extended warrantee so it's the dealers problem for the next 5 years.

Open and Close "This function is unavailable"
The "coming home" lights are sensitive to the ambient light at the time the car is locked. Single press does lock the car, as has been said. Having been out a bit today, the coming home function does not work in daylight on mine. My menu setting is also for 10 seconds.

OBD port
Because I'm old and to saving me crawling around looking for it does anybody know where the OBD port is? Thanks in advance.

White Dove - Cardiff.
I can also endorse White Dove. Very efficient and good communications. Bit to much e-signing of documents for an older fellow like myself but I managed without too much trouble. Now I need to get some miles under the wheels.

Hello, long time Audi driver decided to buy a Kamiq SE-L rather than a Q2. Only had it 2 days so I'll be asking a lot of questions.

Boot Torch not working?
First post so be gentle. I've just bought a Kamiq SE-L and it does not have a torch, it has a 12V socket.
