No, it was a EFB Varta

Hi Warrior193, thank you for your answer. I did that, I got a Varta AGM 70Ah 760ah and coded using a friend's VCDS. I was away for work and used the car like 1 time a week with no errors. As I changed job i started using it more often and it started telling me the error above. With a multimeter I checked and the error was on even with the battery at 12.4v or 12.76v before turning it on. It's not an alternator problem as it charges (12.9v-13.3v-13.4v). The previous owner mounted canbus LEDs in the foot area, above the head and in the trunk. But those should not be a problem. I wanted to update the infotainment only because one day I did not turn it on and I did not get the Low battery error. I thought maybe with a newer version something was fixed. Some correlation/causation situation.

Hello, I have purchased a 2017 Octavia MK3 1.6TDI. Right from the start the car displayed a "Low 12v battery, start the car in order to use the infotainment" error. I did that, I got a Varta AGM 70Ah 760ah and coded using a friend's VCDS. I was away for work and used the car about 1 time a week with no errors (I even did a 200km trip, no problem). As I changed job i started using it more often and it started telling me the error above. With a multimeter I checked and the error appeared even with the battery at 12.4v or 12.76v before turning it on. It's not an alternator problem as it charges (12.9v-13.3v-13.4v). I even removed the negative to see if the car stayed on and it did. The previous owner mounted canbus LEDs in the foot area, above the head and in the trunk. But those should not be a problem. Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Is there a firmware update that I can do? (does the BCM need one? i dont know).

Hello guys, I just purchased my Octavia 2017 Combi 1.6TDI and I have some problems with the battery (12v low battery when I start the car). I want to update the infotainment just to be sure it's not the one draining it. Is there an update for my current version? mibsolution one does not allow to download it. The car already has Android Auto and Mirrorlink with the usb port in the compartment below. in case i Update it, would I lose these benefits? Thanks to whoever can give me a hand.
