Fabia rain water seal
Try jet washing the moss off and maybe the seals arenโt as bad as you think.

Hello, I'm an Octavia newbie!
The big benefits are that questions and answers are shared amongst lots of people and not just select groups. You'll soon get to grips with where things are. ๐

How to properly wash our beauties
If that's so then your car is already clean and nothing further needs doing! ๐ It doesn't take much to cause the swirls......

Hyundai Ioniq 5
Took this out for a test drive and was pleasantly surprised - Premium spec 73kWh RWD (I think). A couple of things which I did notice that were 'different' - for info only. The car will open it's handles as you approach but doesn't auto lock as you move away - not too sure if the key had any 'non relay' properties. There was a manual headlight adjustment. I couldn't get the dashboard to show the blind spot cameras when indicating. Speed was sufficient but would have liked a touch more. The tyres had a generous sidewall but were of the 'normal' variety so no Sealinside. The dashboard graphics were quite clear. No doubt some of the settings were available to alter if I had had the time but was content just to enjoy the drive.

Android auto. โ no simโ message on phone when connected via bluetooth or cable
I believe there's been some recent AA problems but not too sure if they've been related to Android 12 or not. Ensure all your apps are up to date and do a soft reset of the headunit. Also, maybe try a different cable as a lot of AA problems are down to this. Your problem seems more phone related than connection related though.

Try reinserting the sim and restarting the phone as a first step.

Some sites are able to recognise that you are using a VPN. Why not try turning it off to see?

Electric vehicles and charging
I can't help but think the current charging regimes are akin to the old Blockbuster type setup regarding membership. Surely a better idea (for the customer) would be one clearly marked price for each speed of charger and maybe a PetrolPrices style app collating multiple sites?

Just guessing but could it be that you've turned it off and it's politely warning you?

Disc Brake Caliper Covers
If you do decide to paint them (the better idea!) eBay has quite a few options and you'd probably only need a 250ml tin to do all 4. The main thing is to ensure the calipers are grease free first though. ๐

Crystal Face
Just before the official launch date it had been removed as an option so some people will have missed out. I agree that it looks quite good. ๐ฎ

AUX was available on the mk2's but USB was after this IIRC.
