The car is now booked in on the 31st of March, that was the 3rd dealer as the first 2 were into April before thy could look at it. They have suggested that from the symptoms it sounds like a faulty door latch on the passenger door.

As of today the passenger door is not unlocking at all. I also noticed whilst driving that the amber light does not appear on the door unlock button on the dash and that every time I go below 10 miles an hour and then sped up past 10 miles an hour that the rest of the locks click, which would normally only happen the first time crossing 10 miles an hour, at which point the amber light on the door lock button would come on. I will phone the dealer tomorrow but it definitely seems to be faulty behaviour.

I thought that the first couple of times but it has happened when it was 7 degrees so it can't have been frozen

About 3 weeks ago when we had a frosty morning after unlocking the car the passenger door wouldn't open from either the inside or the outside. I tried it later in the day after the temperature had come up and it worked fine. Last weekend on another frosty morning I had the same issue. Tonight with the temperature at 7 degrees the same issue presented. After locking the car and unlocking it the door unlocked and could be opened. That didn't work on the frosty days. I'll need to phone the dealer but I'm not sure exactly when I'll get a chance to take it in. Is this a known issue that will be an easy fix it is it likely to be 2 trips to the dealer, one to diagnose and another to have the fix done if parts need to be ordered? The car is just over a year old. Cheers, Paul

No settings item unfortunately 😞

Just got a new Octavia Sportline and have also found that there are no sub menus to select. Looking at the latest online manual there is no mention of them but older versions do. It looks like they have removed the option which is a bit frustrating. It appears that on the inside of the left rev counter dial all I can have is oil temperature, distance travelled or current or average fuel consumption. Some of this is already in the centre part of the display. What I want is navigation in one of the dials and audio in the other dial. Is that just not possible?

Did your SE include Light Assist/High Beam Assist?

It would appear that the SE Drive doesn't have it which is slightly disappointing but probably not something I would use that often. I'm not sure that it can be blamed on the chip shortage given that it is present on the Superb SE which only has standard LED headlights as well.

I am in the UK and I tried looking at the website but it didn't seem that clear as none of the trims mention it. I will be picking my SE Drive up in the next couple of weeks and wanted to check. It doesn't have the Matrix lights just normal LED, but so did my Octavia Mk 3 Facelift SE L from 2017 which did have High Beam Assist.

Which specs of the Kodiaq come with Auto Light Assist (Automatically activating/deactivating High Beam)? Does it require Lane Assist?

Your deal should be locked in at the price point it was in January when you ordered.

Looks nice. Which dealer is this?

The car arrived at Emden on Wednesday. Hopefully it isn't waiting for too many weeks before making it to the UK.

The dealer has just told me the car has been built and is in transit from the factory. Fingers crossed it doesn't have to wait at Emden fro too long.
