  1. I just came to post something similar independent of just seeing yours now. Never had issues with the infotainment unit until last week when I changed a setting for DAB to try force a reset of the station icons. From that point on I started to get the freeze followed by the black screen, music would still play but couldn't do anything else until I forced a reboot. It would go into the same cycle again but I knew I had changed a setting so tried to get back in again to reset it but I'd get the freeze again. If the unit started straight into Android Auto it was all good until I went back into the radio source. So I figured it must be to do with one of my settings so I tried using the Guest profile and everything was perfectly smooth. Done a factory reset today, bit of a faff setting up the primary user again but immediate thoughts is that it seems ok, I'll know later when I have a long drive.
  2. They don't unless you brake hard. If there's space on the battery re-gen braking will be used. You can also feel the difference between the two types of braking.
  3. Quick update, second time starting the car was asked for the S-PIN and my favourites were back, but my screen layouts, screen background and ambient lighting were all reset to default.
  4. Ah, so that's why I was asked to log into Skoda Connect again this morning, I hadn't been driving the car a while so thought my wife had done something. When I logged in as main driver it brought back some settings but not my radio favourites and the likes and I was prompted to go through the rescan setup again.
  5. Anyone know if a Nextbase 320XR will run off the rear-view mirror port?
  6. A lot of it is down to the previous journey. My wife has heating on high all the time so when she collects me the battery range is way down. I pop out that evening, have the air con temp much lower, park up and when I get back in again the range has increased.
  7. @SW- Is it handy enough to feed through the roof liner? On my MK III I went through the trim among the bottom before coming up via the pillar, the trim in the MK IV seems a little more solid. @Benja77 yeah, understand that, I've an iV so don't really want to go near fuses given all things power wise can seem to be a little temperamental.
  8. So the rear window add-on also gets powered piggybacking into the usb-c port? Which rear view camera are you using, the one that connects into the front or the one that you attach to the rear view window? That's a great solution for having both a front and rear.
  9. Yeah, I preferred the older settings, I've actually had to adjust my driving style as I was used to the car slowing by itself stronger and I would often be able to do one pedal driving, whereas now I feel like the car will run on a bit too quickly.
  10. When you say battery recuperation level, do you mean recuperation when braking or slowing down? I only now have Off, Automatic or On, where as previously I had options to actually set the recuperation level at high, medium etc. Not sure if it's related to 1985 or something else as I only just noticed it today.
  11. Bouncing this one as after a service I noticed that the car wasn't recuperating as heavily as before I left it in and when I went looking for the setting I couldn't find it again. So now I just have Automatic, On and Off. Like with the OP the car manual still points to the E-Drive setting so that hasn't been updated to reflect the reality. Anyone know why we don't get the option to set the recuperation level anymore?
  12. Also had it for a couple of days in a row and then it just left, I checked the lights at the time and they were grand. I even had Skoda call me to say the car is reporting a problem and do I want to bring it to a dealer.
  13. Your floor or boot surely would be a lot less hassle than messing around with mods?
  14. It's hardly the umbrella in the door is it? I thought my car door developed a rattle a while ago and after checking everything I couldn't resolve it. One rainy day I had the umbrella out and suddenly realised the sound was gone! I shook the umbrella and that was the noise I had been hearing inside the door.
  15. So when I'm using Google maps for directions I might occasionally get the first direction appear on the virtual dashboard and that's it, I never expected any more as I believed it wasn't a feature. However recently I was using Google maps and I had turned off the car with the stop start button, didn't turn off the infotainment. When I restarted I noticed I was getting turn by turn with distance countdown, diagrams of upcoming junctions, road names, basically all the details from Google maps appeared in my virtual dashboard until the end of my journey. I tried this a few more times and it worked all but once when they stopped after a few minutes. Anyone know what that's all about? My hardware version is H56, software 1985.
  16. I noticed this yesterday when I went to check my version too, seems too be back working again today.
  17. I wonder would the mirror USB be enough to power both? It should be easy enough to route through the roof or floor trim. I installed a reverse camera on my previous mkIII and it was pretty easy to route the cables from the dash through the trim along the bottom with the right tools, get yourself a cable/wire puller thingy which makes it so much easier.
  18. I notice the same thing, more so than my old MKIII. I initially thought a window or door was slightly ajar but because mines an IV I've been assuming that I notice it more because there's no engine noise most of the time. But yeah, when stopped in traffic or moving slowly the noise of traffic coming from the opposite direction is louder alright.
  19. After the last over the air update I lost the logo on all my favourites, they only appear for new ones added and I'm not that bothered, yet, to remove and re-add to get the logos back.
  20. If you can get your hand on a Skoda rubber boot liner from the MKIII that'll work. I kept mine when I traded in and the fit is pretty good in the hybrid.
  21. Mightn't be related to the app, like the other posters said it's not an uncommon issue. I've the latest version of the app a while and this week I both had immediate responses that the car is heating for me, including this afternoon, but this morning I was getting the error message but when I went out the car was toasty.
  22. Ok, do sitting in my car as usual waiting for kids training to finish and looking around with the settings after the software update to see if I could spot anything new and I came across the Stationary Air Conditioning section in the e-manager settings (pretty sure it was always there but just never took heed of it) I hit the toggle for use electricity from the HV battery and didn't notice anything but that evening when I unlocked the car and sat into a minute later it was getting nice and toasty! Once I pressed the ignition though it stopped using the battery heater and started to get cool.
  23. What inflator are you using? Like others I had to bring my non-Skoda supplied one over the rear seats (it's an estate) and through the cabin and out through the passenger door, still didn't have much to spare.
  24. My hardware version is H56, s/w was 1941 and I received the OTA update last week.
