Not sure how the ABS and TPMS firmware would react to different size front and rear tyres on the O3, it's been designed to have identical size front and rear tyres so you could end up with ABS & TPMS faults. Yes the RS3 has different sizes but it also has different ABS firmware.

Resetting the one touch does NOT involve the fob, only the window switches on the door - and the door does not have to be open just the ignition on. You're making it far too complicated!

But the E-Tec adds weight for the batteries etc. - be worth comparing the unladen weights of the two cars, and I'm pretty sure your Mk4 will be heavier than the Mk3 was so will need higher tyre pressures.

Does one touch window open/close work on ALL windows? - that's a pre-requisite for the long press to work. If it doesn't then you need to reset one touch by the usual hold the switch down when the window(s) fully open and fully closed.

Because there is no other source for MIB2 maps than VAG, so we have to "play by their rules". Skoda SD cards are available easily off eBay (that's where I purchased both of mine) for less than an equivalent size normal SD card at full price, so it need not cost any more.

If music over Bluetooth is fine then the Bluetooth and the MIB are probably OK, so this sounds like a phone or mobile network issue?

Cornering fog lights only works when moving.

Two ways: scan the car with a scan tool and post the part number shown in the scan for the 5F unit. Slide the screen out post the part number shown on the label.

That's what a quick Google said...

Since there is drive to the rear wheels it's hard to see why they made that assumption? If the clutch/gearbox are faulty then there would be no drive to any wheels surely?

There are companies that apply extra tinting film to car windows, just make sure that you don't break the limits on tint for rear side windows which I believe is 35% (front windows are 70% and windscreens 75%).

Perhaps they were never adjusted properly in the factory? That's been posted on here before...

All I will do is repeat the advice to read what private owners of TDI Octavia 3's have posted here about DPF issues due to short journeys. At the end of the day it's your decision, but I will say that I will NEVER own a TDI with a DPF based on what I have read here and on other owners forums and my driving pattern which is 80% journeys less than 10 miles.

Different cables -so not strange IMHO.

You only have to read the number of posts on here from owners having DPF problems most of which are from driving patterns that do not include regular long runs to get the strong impression that your driving pattern is not suitable for a TDI Octavia 3.

Do both use the same cable? Unless you have an iPhone 15/16 they have a Lightning connector not a USB-C connector.

I would say no, even on a 10 mile run my 1.8TSI reaches nearly 100C, and over 90C on a 5 mile run. Like already said I would change the thermostat as your first step.

Have you tried it and does it work?

Got any details?

A 2015 car can be either MIB1 or MIB2 (it changed in May 2015 production), a MIB1 doesn't support CarPlay or Android Auto.

2015 could be MIB1 or MIB2 as the changeover happened in around May 2015. From your part number I think it's a MIB1 Amundsen you have, so I'm not sure if there is a larger screen that will work - when I had a MIB1 Amundsen I was told the larger MIB2 screens have a different resolution so won't work, but it would be good if @pab567 could confirm.

Do you mean just the screen (that's all it is) for a larger one, or the screen and the glovebox unit (that's the "brains") for a better one? What are you hoping to gain from the upgrade?

The issue you really need to check is whether it supports the non-entertainment features of the OEM infotainment units, many of those units do not. They allow you to both check, and more importantly setup/change/configure, many of the car functions (hence the CAR button).

Might be better if you post in the Mk2 Octavia forum?
