But you don't have a 2.0...

Thanks for the correction, not sure how I managed to transpose the measurements. 🙄

@McDuff If your car has ACC & it's enabled, it will drive itself in traffic.

I'd be inclined to send it back. That's even worse than the skinny 18".

What profile tyre is fitted?

If driving long distance I'd want a full size spare. No idea why but neither the wheel width nor tyre profile are specified on that 17". Possibly also worth mentioning that Skoda don't offer a 17" space-saver, only 16 & 18", so there could be an insurance issue using one. Best bet would be to find a same size wheel, both diameter & width, as fitted to the car, as that takes some of the pressure off of finding an immediate replacement should you get a puncture. One thing to note is that a full width wheel will eat into boot space.

For what it's worth I taped over the camera today & the only difference was Lane Assist not working. So no further forward. Interestingly there was no error reported like when the camera is obscured by ice. Skoda online continue to be pretty useless. They've vaguely suggested that the map data provider might have found an issue with map data, that might be resolved in a future update. But bizarrely they seem to be unable to provide an explanation of what the Advanced Road Sign Display setting is & even more bizarrely, are suggesting they're waiting for the map provider to tell them!

As @philbes said, ask the question & get the answer in writing. We've seen from previous discussions that there is no one correct answer.

@DGAsp If you intend keeping the car for a while it may be worth considering down-sizing the alloys. That would improve the ride by default, reduce the kerbing risk & the tyres would be cheaper.

I think next step is to tape over the camera & see if I can detect any difference then.

@CJJE Do you see any difference in behaviour for camera vs maps? You can submit changes to incorrect data here.

There is an on/off setting for this in Vehicle Setting > Instrument Cluster, but it doesn't seem to do anything on my year old car. So does anyone know what it's supposed to do? I still have doubts that TSR is working at all in my car. As a supplementary question, is there a difference in behaviour between when TSR sees a speed limit sign as opposed to the change in limit being detected by GPS map data? Scenario would be comparing a clearly visible clean sign to one broken or covered in algae & buried in a hedge.

If they do it I'd expect it to essentially be a shrunken Kodiaq, given that already has the hybrid models they've spoken of. Same chassis/platform & running gear, lots of shared internals, just on a slightly shorter wheelbase.

Indeed, having had a look there are several "previews" of a '26 model posted last year & now apparently a different '27 model, all in the same AI showroom & trundling down the road driverless. Having said that, if a replacement does ever materialise then it almost certainly will have the "iPad stuck to the dash with blutack" look that most of the industry seems to have embraced.

@philbes That would be a major redesign, so I suspect you were looking at another model. Edit Apparently AI fakes.

Still struggling with this despite two more satnav updates. A little bit of progress with Skoda support, as they pointed me towards the online version of the maps: https://mapcreator.here.com/mapcreator/?site=global-skoda-consumers Here you can drill down to the speed limits recorded on each section of the road & report errors. Annoyingly all of my errors are correct on that map, so something else is going on. Maybe as @Octy-PHEV alluded to, there's another data set at play here. Having verified the map data, I bit the bullet & factory reset the infotainment, but no difference. So now awaiting the next step from Skoda.

Last time I had a heated screen was in 1990 on a Sierra Ghia. Soon got used to the elements & didn't find them distracting. Given that was 36 years ago, I find it staggering that it's not a standard fitment across every manufacturer/model, given the safety implications. But I may be prejudiced as my mother was wiped out by a "letterbox" merchant. ☹️

Five new 1.5 DSG cars here for £28k. Whatever you do, beware of options tipping over the £40k retail threshold for £600pa VED.

The question over the variable floor is because I was adamant I wanted one & passed on several vehicles until I found one. But it was just to remove the step over the back seats. I subsequently found that if you buy or spec the 16" spare wheel, this effectively also raises the floor. While the variable floor does allow a little more space, it limits the spare to the ultra skinny 18". That is a good price for a factory order but I paid £28.3k including metallic, spare wheel & variable floor for an unregistered car. If you can find a pre-reg that will save you an additional £595 on the first year road tax.

Do you actually need a variable floor or are you just wanting to level out the big step when the rear seats are folded? There are huge numbers of unregistered cars in the dealer network with significant discounts, especially if you're prepared to travel to buy. I got £8k off the list price for the same spec this time last year, but no idea how that would translate on finance. Look at Autotrader as the same cars are listed cheaper there than via Skoda's web site. If you want extras then probably better buying a Sportline. Simply adding the matrix headlights to an SEL takes it to nearly the same price as a Sportline, especially as the metallic paint is £680 on an SEL & FOC on a Sportline. Of course that's also a lot more to go wrong if you're planning on keeping it long term.

Look for an independent glass specialist rather than a chain & get someone to actually look at it, rather than their computer screen. It looks to me like the bonding to the screen is fine, it's the housing that's separated.

You're being bent over. For some bizarre reason Skoda's pricing changes by vehicle age. At my local dealer, which seems mid-priced, a fluid change on a 2-year-old car costs £65. The same fluid change on a 4-year-old car costs £91. So a 40% premium for exactly the same job on exactly the same car. Find yourself an indy to do it.

Swipe down from the top of the screen & there should be an option there to mute/unmute.

Mine looks like this on app v3.12.0 if it helps:

@croquemonsieur Lane Assist is inactive below 37 MPH, so not an issue on roundabouts. It also needs to "see" a clearly defined centre line AND nearside boundary. If one is absent the system again deactivates.
