Does anyone know if a 2019 Octavia Estate has the ability to power a fridge/charge a leisre battery while travelling and if not what kit is required ?

Perhaps not a useful reply, but I have recently given up updating the maps twice a year and now use Android auto with google maps on my 2019. Wish I'd done it earlier.

I have a MY19 Octavia estate and had all sorts of strange things happen to my doors, locking/not unlocking/alarms going off, seemed to have a link to whether it had been raining or not. After trying to understand the problem I got a main dealer in France (we were on holiday) to check for fault codes. He smiled when I explained the problem and took less than five minutes to identify the problem. It seems it is a well known problem with the front doors electronics The only solution is replacement. UK dealer who fixed the problem, for £400, more or less admitted it was a known issue. I was 4 weeks out of an extended warranty!

You might want to check my two posts on this subject.

Not sure if you have seen my post on this subject which may or may not be helpfull. I have a 2019 Octavia, had a problem with front passenger door doing various strange things. There is a known problem with the doorlock, two main dealers virtually confirmed this. Cost me £400 supply and fit for a new lock.

Hi varaderoguy, Thanks for reply, do you know if I can lever the camera assembly out from the outside or must I remove the large trim piece on the inside of the tailgate to get access?

Anybody got any advice on how to remove the factory fit reversing camera on a 2019 estate?. I have a lot of water coming out around the camera. Jets to the camera and rear screen are working normally.

Could be a stone stuck between the disc and shield?

I would use a Q-tip/cotton bud on a small part of the mark to test if any solvent/fluid you use won't make it worse.

Sorted!

Has anyone fitted heated mirrors and if so how difficult was it. My 2019 Octavia came with many extras but strangely not heated mirrors.

I have always used D to S. I do not think you can permanently set it to S.

Yes it is very stiff. Extra weetabix for breakfast?😁

Apologies for hijacking the thread. Phoenixboy I often un-tick the interior monitoring when I leave the dog in the car. I find interior monitoring is reset to active after unlocking the car, can you switch it off permanently?
