There were no issues other than the battery, until it went into the dealership. They then said they ran a diagnostics check and that’s when the fault came up. It had also been into the dealership approximately 1 month before for the same battery issue and nothing picked up with regards to the spillage on this occasion. The car was sent back as being repaired with no fault codes remaining

No

Repairs: Liquid spilt over selector lever including cable end Liquid spilt over shift control Liquid spilt over sound generator Total cost £1800 Repairs have not been done yet as not authorised by us or Skoda

It’s lease hire with a maintenance contract It’s lease hire but we got it in Oct 2023 it was fine for 6 months & then nothing but trouble with charging since then

The issue relating to not charging is separate and not caused by the liquid

Because we have not spilt anything in the car. If something had leaked, wouldn’t there be signs of it that we could see on the interior? Also, my husband has been to see the liquid and doesn’t believe it’s consumable? It’s sticky and oily and still wet after 12 weeks?

Hello, I am a newbie here! Just after some friendly advice please. We have a plugin hybrid that went into the dealership due to issues with the 12v battery not charging. While in the garage, they found a liquid substance inside the central console. There was no sign of this in the cars interior, only inside when they took it apart. ŠKODA are claiming that we have spilt tea/coffee & therefore the repairs are not covered by the maintenance contract. Firstly, we are not aware of ever spilling anything and secondly, it is a sticky liquid that is still wet! I have attached pictures. We are disputing the repair cost with Skoda at the moment but just wondered if anyone has had anything similar? Also, how best to proceed in these circumstances? Thank you
