Do the pano roof and rear windows now close one touch using the switches? If they do then it's likely a coding/adaptation issue. Please post exactly what changes you made - if you use VCDS then it keeps a log of changes in C:\Ross-Tech\VCDS\Debug as CodingLog.csv and AdpLog.csv which you can open with e.g. Notepad.

It should do, I've never had a panoramic roof (just a 'normal' sunroof) I expect a similar issue of resetting the end points will be needed, time to RTFM I suspect.

Does the one touch work on the rear windows using the switches? If not you need to reset it by winding the windows down and up but hold the switch for a few seconds even after the window is fully up and down.

Press and hold the MENU button.

A 2015 Octavia could have either a MIB1 or a MIB2 AMundsen depending on the production date. So first thing is to check which maps you need, easiest way is to visit the Skoda update wbesite and enter your VIN. As it's an Amundsen you need a genuine Skoda SD card, there's no need to pay SKoda prices as they are on eBay for a lot less.

Exactly, aftermarket radios such as the Alpine do not respond to the diagnostic messages from the CAN gateway hence the fault code.

It's all about "Leuchte programming" as well as enabling the light to have the blinking function you have to set the "dimmwert" level and whether that should be a maximum or minimum level, and do this in the appropriate group (there are 4 per lamp). Please post what changes you have made to try to enable this feature. BTW please check that having lights that are not amber flashing is legal in your country (wherever you are). Best way forward is to post an adaptation map from the 09 BCM so someone can take a look and advise.

Have you checked whether music can be played off a 'normal' SD card? This will check whether the problem is the SD card reader hardware.

The brown parts in my Mk3 L&K are much darker, so it looks like it's the 3G4 brown not the WC4 beige.

Looks like I might have to get a cheap(!) part in both 3G4 and WC4 to be sure?

My brothers hearing aids are pretty close to WC4 Stone Beige so I reckon that could also be called "hearing aid beige" - like the Austin Maestro that one of the older engineers I worked with at Lotus used to drive 😂

Has CarPlay been enabled on the infotainment system? My 2016 Octavia L&K had the option shown when scrolling through the MENU options but when clicked it said that it needed to be enabled by means of a FEC/SWaP code. Just had that done by a guy in Redditch (cheaper and quicker than going to the local Skoda dealer) and now able to use CarPlay.

There have been many reports in the UK of business owned plug-in hybrids being returned at the end of the lease with the charge lead still wrapped in its plastic bag and unused. One example https://uk.motor1.com/news/276595/uk-hybrids-never-plugged-in/

Thanks 👍 I know it's probably not WC4 from the parts I've seen online with that suffix are much lighter, so I suspect it's 3G4 for the brown parts and IFX as the general as there are many black parts too. Can start planning some upgrades/retrofits now 😁

My previous Elegance had the pretty common interior plastic parts with suffix 9B9 but my new to me L&K has many brown(?) interior plastic parts. Can anyone advise the equivalent to the 9B9 suffix for these parts?

I can confirm that from experience of hanging upside down in a ditch in my first car, a Renault 6

Holy thread resurrection! Latest VCDS release is 22.3 and a beta 22.6 is publicly available.

I presume the local garage disconnected the battery, when this happens some systems (e.g. ABS) need to have some basic settings redone. I think you need a fault code scan, with e.g. VCDS or OCP, to see why you have problems with cruise and stop/start. BTW there are no cruise control electronics, it's just software in the engine ECU.

iPod to USB-A lead plus a USB-A to USB-C adapter?

Is there an update for the MIB2 Amundsen in my new to me Octavia?

I'd stop that sentence at "to store it...", yes batteries are one option for storage but pumped hydro and creating hydrogen to be stored for later use in a fixed generator is another - there's probably more that others can think of. As in almost everything a "one size fits all" approach is normally not the best way to solve a problem.

I think it comes down to battery construction, if the internal resistance is higher (due to the way the battery is built) then the open circuit voltage will be OK but when a current is drawn (like when the fob is used) the voltage will drop below the threshold set and hence the voltage warning be generated. This may explain why fresh Panasonic batteries don't seem to have the problem?

Just taken one using my phone on the drive at home so far, will try to head up to the Westbury White Horse later today and take some hi-res photos. Loving how it drives, the 7 speed DSG is a much more relaxing drive than the 6 speed manual and the extra oomph of the 1.8 over the 1.4 is very noticeable, the combination of DSG & 1.8 gives some insanely high instatntaeous mpg figures (over 250mpg already seen!).

Don't condemn the module without first checking the fuse that supplies it and the wiring to it - simple cheap checks first!
