Winter roads, ice, snow and wet or dry driving in an EV..
That's a blast from the past. Back in the 1960s I used a length of plastic tube wrapped around the top hose on my Ford Anglia 105E. tom

Post a photo of the rivet, that might help. Plastic rivets are common in fitting trim panels. There are plenty of YouTube videos on how to remove them. tom

Travel Assist not available
When I was having "post Fix" EGR problems on my Yeti I was quoted a diagnostic fee. When the problem was diagnosed and accepted as being covered by the trust building measure guarantee they did not charge me. I think they quoted the fee just in case the problem was NOT covered by the warranty. tom

Driving techniques for DSG gearbox.
Personally I like the Eco Mode. I am a gentle driver and like the way it "softens" the acceleration. I am not bothered re the coasting function. tom

Sounds like the oil supply problems to the top of the engines on the old Mk3 Cortinas. Can't beat

Electric tailgate doesn't work
My 2p! Any sources of radio interference near where it happened? Try a different dealer. As it is safety related and Skoda aren't helping then report to VOSA tom

My 1.5 Tsi only does approx 5000 miles a year but I still have an annual service. I do keep my cars for 10 years or so. tom

Connect Lite GPS location info
My Connect Lite no longer shows the routes on on a map. I get the message "Sorry we do not have sufficient GPS data to display your trip in map view". The start and finish points both have the message "GPS not known". Is there anything I can do to get these back? tom

1.5tsi dsg remapping risks?
Do you have the flappy paddles? I don't like that slight delay when using the kickdown. I just drop a couple of gears with the left hand paddle and when the overtake is done hold the right hand paddle for a second to get it back to normal. This is the only time I use the paddles. tom

Manual Lumbar Control
Happened on the passenger side of my Karoq. I put it back a couple of times but eventually got my dealer to do it at a service. Been secure ever since. I have no idea what they did. tom

Enyaq v Kia EV6 test
I remember back in the 1960s you could buy a small paraffin heater that you put under the car's sump overnight in order to stop the car freezing and make for easier starting in the morning. People bought these even though the car had antifreeze in the cooling system. tom

Skoda Connect LITE
Thanks. Didn't expect it (or see it) in Trips and then "Widgets". I have unlocked everything I could. I still have nearly 18,000 points left with nothing to spend them on. It did however reduce me from "Silver" to "Bronze". tom

This is my plan. What alloys are you using, Skoda or another make? Are you using Cross Climate "+" or "2"? Did you get a good deal? Thanks tom

I would like it covered with a nice fake walnut veneer together with the black plastic dashboard trim hydro dipped similarly. tom
