Car won't lock after replacing fob battery
stevo1 replied to boardtc's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Also use a quality battery ! -
Interesting ! Sent from Progress Skoda ( Bedford) You could be due to replace your cambelt. It’s vitally important to change a cambelt when it’s due because the wear caused after extended use can cause it to break. We are currently offering a full cambelt replacement including all parts and labour for £500. If you have a diesel vehicle we would also recommend replacing your water pump at the same time for an additional £100.^^

I also require a replacement battery ! I think there is way of keeping power to the car whilst replacing, but not sure how to go about it yet. Perhaps some helpful person will give us a heads up ? Tia -
Just changed my fob battery with the same size as existing, didn't want to force anything in the fob 🤦 Didn't work with a cheapie though ! Bought 4 Energizer for £3.99 from Amazon, and all works well. With my car, If you do get stuck, you can access & drive the car without the fob working.

Battery life for 2019 Octavia VRS
stevo1 replied to jonjc's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Interesting stuff ! I need a replacement battery too, which I can easily fit, but how easy is it to code ? Or would I need to use someone in the Beds area ? Tia
