In the past few weeks I've had similar problems with my 2020 Kamiq although I haven't gone into such depth investigating as here, thinking it was the return of a problem two to three years ago which ended up with my Kamiq on the dealer's computer for four or five hours being updated. I shall follow things up further.

In 2022-2023 I had problems downloading the updates fro my Skoda Kamiq and eventually it had to go in to the dealers to be brought up to date - a four or five job on the computer. I can't recall any notification of updates since then until recently when a few weeks ago the message appeared on the centre display that updates were available and I tapped on the download option and then OK to the message about sharing my position. This occurred a number of times every few days or so and I began to be suspicious that there might be a problem. However, on Saturday, 13th June, the downloads available message came up again and this time after the sharing position message the central display became simply the time and date display, as it usually does when a download is taking place. One thing that was different was that for the rest of the journey (an hour and a half) the speed warning kept sounding frequently, even when I was travelling at less than the maximum limit, and occasionally for every mile per hour the speed reduced! Eventually, this stopped, but the time and date display continued to the end of the journey. Next day, the time and date display was still the default and attempts to change to the menu screen or radio display were unsuccessful, until I remembered the hard reboot trick, which brought the usual display back but with no speed warning working. However, the next time I drove the car, the speed warning was working as does everything else so far as IO can make out. So, two questions: Does anyone know what the current release figure is for the car diosplay etc., and 2. where and how I can find it?

Yes, you can using the "equipment" volume control, i.e not the media one.

My 2020 Kamiq only gives a ping when it first detects I've gone over the limit and after that if I don't slow down it doesn't sound further. As regards a change in speed limit, I have noticed it occasionally give a ping when leaving a limited zone but never known why. Maybe the age of my car is the answer.

A strange decision. I have a 2020 Kamiq-SEL with DSG and I find o a number of occasions that changing to manual selection I can use a higher and, therefore, ore economical gear.

Yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon I had a message notification from the MySkoda app asking for consent to data transfer. (There was a grey circle on the app icon to indicate there was a message, as well as the message showing in my 'phone notifications). As the message had some reference in to improving public safety, I assumed Skoda might be planning to reintroduce the Driving Score app and opened the app and checked that I had consented to data transfer. I also noticed that I was asked to select a service partner which puzzled me as I had done this when the app first came out, selectring D M Keith at York. However, I did so again and exited from the app. The grey circle on the app remained however as did the message in my 'phone notifications, so I opened the MySkoda app again and noticed that I was again asked to select a service partner, which I did, as well as checking data transfer consent(s). Exiting the app, the grey circle and message notification were still there and so I opdened the app again and found once more that I was being asked to select a service partner, which I did, also checking data transfer consent(s). This cycle was repeated a number of times and eventually the grey circle and message notification disappeared. Has this happenedf to anyone else?

Thank you both for your replies which explain why I can no llonger find it in the app. As the driving score was an optional thing, I don't see any problem with data sharing - if you use Driving Score you share data, if you don't, then you don't. After all, in one way or another you share data just driving your car.

Has anyone tried out the Driving Score option on the Skoda app and what do you think of it?

If you haven't done already, it may be worthwhile having a word with your local dealer.

I have noticed that Lane Assist has made me aware of when I am straying towards the edge of my lane, so it is elpful in that respect and it odes sharpen your senses as regards avoiding this before Lane Assist needs to warn you. Maybe, too, we need to remember that it is not just about lane markings, it is about safe boundaries, e.g. getting too close to other "lane markers" such as banks and high verges.

Here's an English translation: I have a Skoda Kamiq MC that I imported to North Africa. I would like to know if it's possible to display MAP (GoogleMAP or Waze) from CarPlay/Android Auto instead of the compass on the MOI3 cockpit of the Skoda Kamiq MC. Thank you. Here's my version.

Agreed.

Mine is an SE L ordered in January, 2020, with delivery for March, 2020, but actually arrived June 2020, presumably because of Covid situation. There is no indent on the front door handles, so I suppose that supply problems during Covid meant that that bit was omitted. The key fob has buttons for everything locked, lock/unlock boot only and unlock everything.

Apologies readily accepted. From my experience with my 2020 Kamiq, locking and unlocking appears to be far less complicated than what has been described, but then I went for the "press the button, lock everything" and similarly for unlocking. There is a boot only button on the key fob my wife sometimes, but I don't.

I think you in part at least miss the point. You apologise to me because you think I was offended, but offer no apology for suggesting that Topbox was not a nice person, while defending your use of capitals, which I have always understood to be the online equivalent of shouting, although maybe you didn't know that. I agree that it would have been useful if Topbox had provided an explanation when he confirmed that the problem had been solved, but all that required from you was an enquiiry as to what the solution was, no need for comments on Topbox's nature or stressing the point by capitals or any other means of emphasis. Face to face with Topbox would you have said what you wrote and stressed it as you did?
