Prices are bonkers. In Ireland before grants. Enyaq 60 €46,570 Enyaq 80 €54,360 80 is same price as top of the range kodiaq 4 wheel drive fully loaded. Its diesel for me next I think.

Got sorted (I think). Replaced the alarm siren as I'd seen some Audi posts that it has a battery that fails (9 years old) and flashes the indicators like what Im seeing. Garage was €245 plus VAT and fitting. €400 ish... Went to german cars dismantler in Limerick and got one out of 2014 passat for €30, fitted myself and it works perfectly. Battery should be fine for a few years. No flashing for last 48 hours. (fingers Crossed). Buying the VCDS cable was definitely worth €30.. To remove the siren remove the cover the white arrows are pointing to. Pull of the rubber seal at the front. The panel is just pressed in at the window and has no screws. (note - mine had the wipers on the other half of the panel, yours may be different) Once removed there will be another black cover for the siren. This is removed with 2 torx screws. Then you see a bracket where the siren is mounted underneath. Insert a 13mm spanner to the top of the siren and loosen and remove the nut. Unplug the siren and plug in new one and refit everything in reverse of above. I didnt disconnect the battery but did have ignition off.

@langers2k thanks for that. I see there are several models even upto 2016 using this siren so I will try a few breakers to see if they have one. From other post it seems this is where the siren is.. It's mounted by a rivet to the underside of the bodywork below the windscreen, near to the left-hand bonnet hinge. You probably won't see it unless you remove the plenum chamber on the LHS. HTH

Quoted €246 incl VAT at local dealer... Anyone know the part number of the siren with battery... Could see If I could get one from newer superb that would have newer battery..

thanks @langers2k. Is there a test to see if it is the problem ? Ive seen so many posts with different suggestions. 1 - Battery in Siren 2 - Faulty Siren (even though it goes off if i trigger it). 3 - Faulty bonnet or boot lock switch 4 - Fault in door wiring loom 5 - Interior sensors too sensitive 6 - Interior sensors faulty. As I cant start changing them all its getting frustrating. Question - can the alarm be disabled totally and only leave the door lock \ unlock ?

No need to remove the glove box. It can pop out from underneath. I replaced mine with one 3 years newer and its started the same thing. Did the WD40 help ?

I have issue where the indicator lights flash after 30 seconds of locking the car. The siren doesnt go off. If I leave for 10 minutes they stop. If I unlock and lock again I get one of these next. 1 - They flash again after 30 seconds 2 - The full alarm goes off (rare but at least means the siren is OK) 3 - It works fine I checked with VCDS and these were the errors. 01134 - Alarm Horn (H12) 004 - No Signal/Communication Freeze Frame: Fault Status: 01100100 Fault Priority: 4 Fault Frequency: 254 Reset counter: 39 Mileage: 145657 km Time Indication: 0 Date: 2012.12.06 (DONT KNOW WHY THE DATE IS WRONG) Time: 07:19:12 Freeze Frame: Term 15 On Voltage: 11.55 V ON ON Term 50 Off OFF OFF 01134 - Alarm Horn (H12) 002 - Lower Limit Exceeded - Intermittent Freeze Frame: Fault Status: 00100010 Fault Priority: 4 Fault Frequency: 254 Reset counter: 74 Mileage: 145674 km Time Indication: 0 Freeze Frame: Term 15 Off Voltage: 12.95 V OFF OFF Term 50 Off OFF OFF If I clear the errors and the flashing starts again these 2 errors appear again. I have been to 3 skoda garages (paid for 3 diagnostics) but they found nothing. The Fault Frequency must be the total number of times its happened. Anyone have any idea what causes these errors. Im at my wits end on this... Thanks

Hi @chimaera is that different to what a garage would normally do when they connect the computer to the car ? What type of scan exactly should I be asking them to do ? Im not 100% sure but think that the hazard switch doesn't even light up when it goes off. I would assume a faulty hazard switch would replicate a pressing of the switch if it was the cause ? Also if it was a faulty switch would unlocking the car stop the hazard switch from setting off the indicators ?

UPDATE I replaced the car battery but the flashing indicators still happens. Seems worse after journeys of less than 10 miles. I now have to lock the car and wait a few minutes to see if it goes off. If it does I unlock and lock again and repeat this until it stops (3-4 goes max). The siren never goes off and nothing showed up on the scanner at the Skoda/VW garage. Anyone any idea what may be causing it or even is it linked to the alarm and I could disable the alarm totally ??? At my wits end..

Eventually got to bring my car to a local auto electrician who had done a few of these recently and they replaced a section of the loom away from the tension area and all works fine again. It was emotional to have the rear heated screen working after nearly 5 years. Really bad design from Skoda.... Probably why you dont see it in later versions.

@geoffyhil I know this is an old post and you may not have the car anymore but did you ever get to solve that problem ? I have nearly the exact same thing as you describe ... Thanks

@Noddy90 here is the screen I have in the pumpkin. Its an app called Car Settings.. One other thing. In my unit I dont see the Air Con settings on the unit when I change something but canbus for all the other bits are fine. Do you see the AC settings on the screen when you change temp or fans or something ?

@Noddy90 Put in my Android stereo on Friday and its quiet nice. Went for the Pumpkin 8" one. Can you check 1 thing for me though. My battery in the Car info on the stereo seems sometimes low. With engine off it goes from 12.2 - 12.45 Id expected lowest of 12.6... The battery is five years old so may need replacing. What voltage is yours on the android unit when the engine is off. I assume this information is coming from the Skoda canbus so should be fairly reliable.

Ive a weird one. For a few months now on and off I've had an issue where the car would be locked and then after a few minutes the 4 Indicators lights would start flashing. They would remain flashing for ages. There would be no siren / alarm or anything. I would sometimes have to leave the car unlocked or it would keep going off. Then for no reason it would just stop. It started happening again yesterday even when I was at the garage (VW) and they plugged it in to diagnostics and saw nothing. Last night it was happening also so i checked a few things. I had seen others say it may be an alarm battery or siren issue. So I opened the window and turned on the alarm with doors closed. After 2 mins I put in my hand and the alarm and siren went off. I also tested the battery last night and it was at 12.36v but Im not sure the accuracy of my meter. Am going to check against a good meter later. I have just purchased a new radio (pumpkin,havent installed it yet) as lots had said battery issues caused by columbus and I wanted more features on the raidio anyway. So with the unit I got an OBD2 adapter... Should that help me check if there is something going on recorded by the cars computer ? Is that reading the same as the skoda Vehicle Diagnostic tool ?

@timrevill Can I ask a few questions ? What was the part you mention ? Where was it (maybe a photo might help). When you say the connections on the left was it a connection problem or a faulty part problem ?
