Driving in France
That's usually a quick change on most cars in the dash menu, so that's one down X to go. Same, I can change mph to kmh nice and easily too, and good to have it set on the display for every day driving.

New Electronics Problem?
@Josdad for peace of mind before Winter, you should follow this up and get it checked over. Odds are as mentioned the short trips you sometimes do many have dragged the battery down, and the power was not put back in before journey ended. There maybe a TPI document for the battery charge sensor that measures battery and decides when to ask Alternator for juice, that's a dealer job where some technician actually checks for your complaint. Usually they are on time limits so they might not always check for any relevant TPI's when they reset your fault codes.

Driving in France
Damn, another good post as you made me think again. The difference will be slight really, a few metres here and there. But you did make me think by writing 4,500 miles, as I was to joke "surely you mean 7,240.5 km" 😆 So @Cmonty it maybe useful for you to change display from MPH to KMH, unless you are fine converting "on the fly" so to speak, not that I think you would be doing 80mph in an 80kmh zone.

Be patient @pab567 is probably at work, and helping in his spare time. He may have missed the VIN being posted. Allow a few hours for responses.

Driving in France
Good shout ☝️ There is a little beam difference from LHD to RHD, but minimal deflection, the most you will notice in real driving is something will activate a tiny bit earlier/later (if you can notice it) This should help the OP no end your real-life account, thanks 🤝

Static on apple carplay
You have MU 8740 version, exists MU 8755 You have two choices: 1. Visit Skoda tomorrow, and pay for update (if they even apply fix!) 2. I can send file over and you apply yourself at your own choice and fix = free potentially.

Try holding down the Setup button a few seconds?

Driving in France
Not a problem, just trying to help people to the best of my abilities. Swap headlights to 3V1 xxx xxx Front fog lights (bulb change/physical new part needed/adjustment of angles as needed) Code rear fog lamp(s) (I am not sure of what French law/adjustment is needed) or change if needed the physical units Radar (potentially a coding change and/or calibration for RHD/LHD angles) See Edit: Check with the help of forum members if the list needs adding or any other coding changes they can think of Edit: Regards to radar, my friend said you should be fine to go to France, just to pay attention if the car does silly buggers with ACC to get a calibration done then, he goes over to Europe also and no issues.

Wireless android auto
Hopefully someone has had same issue can post back how they got theirs fixed, phone reset maybe etc. Best of luck to you!

Driving in France
You must be leaving a sinking ship, HMS UK 😆 I am waiting on a call back from a Master Tech I know with regards to the radar, but AFAIK there is no RHD/LHD part whatsoever, but I am 99% sure that you will need it calibrating to point at a different "target" direction. You may need a good independant specialist to check all your codings to swap your car from RHD to LHD in a fair few areas. Worth getting a little list drawn of up all the changes needed to get swap done.

Wireless android auto
@Matt_130 Indeed it does seem weird then to keep asking for USB, from my understanding wireless android auto should be added/functional. Bugs upon bugs, or it's something about phone blocking perhaps.

Might be idea to add version infomation of your software (picture?)

Static on apple carplay
I have heard of this issue reported by someone for their apple doing this, can you get your version information up and report back? Hold down Menu key usually a few seconds, you are looking for Software Train, I can at least verifiy if there's an update for software probably.

Driving in France
That radar will need calibrating potentially, I am trying to remember exactly a training course I was on many moons ago, hopefully someone might recall quicker than me. And yes you have it right on the part numbers.
-
Driving in France
Here are the part numbers if you are going to swap headlights over As you can see, part number is same, just the 3rd digit changes 3V2 are RHD 3V1 are LHD Not looked at foglamps yet, but I was also wondering how much more technology you have that needs adjusting (everyone else missed this so far) Do you have radar / lane warning and a whole host of tech that might need fully adjusting!? Best to let us know what features your car has.

Weird Error Message (Only Leave vehicle in Position P)
@Conalk45 TPI = Technical Product Information @roottoot Yup this same fault is definitely in other parts of the forum for sure! @Chiselwizard If possible, might be an idea to change title of the thread with correct text, or a mod if not (then will appear in searches better!)

Weird Error Message (Only Leave vehicle in Position P)
I have attached a TPI to read, mainly for anyone following the thread in future. Current repair kit is 3Q0 713 128, with the caveat that this might change in future at any point, as well as revision to the TPI document - they are not set in concrete, revisions are made from time to time. 2060686.3 - Fault Workshop!

Might be worth posting an image of that information, would be useful to have it document for you as much as anyone else that reads this.

Date and Nav issues...
Not sure where you live Simon, but maybe someone on this list can be on hand to look at the car. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/262215-list-of-vcds-owners-previously-known-as-vag-com-vcp-owners/ Might be an idea to flesh out your profile with a location/car make/car year/engine details etc to allow easier help.

Glow Plug Warning on 2012 Skoda Octavia 1.6 CR TDI
As your son has already booked a mobile mechanic to visit, probably best you don't cancel. But for future reference, if the car can still drive, there are members with scan tools you might have been able to visit for a quick scan. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/262215-list-of-vcds-owners-previously-known-as-vag-com-vcp-owners/ Best of luck, try to get specific codes if possible from the mechanic that you can report back here if needed.

At long last... SW Version 1896
Sadly I don't have this in my basic Octavia, so not fully sure of exact steps only the overall of what settings need to be. With luck someone who has gotten the update OTA will be able to respond to your question.
