That's a bit out of date - updated now. But I will consider the recommendation! My Fabia has just had its MMI replaced (under all-in warranty) after vertical lines appeared on the screen. The experience with Platinum Skoda in Bath has been absolutely awful (fault reported in September, replaced yesterday), particularly when I've had warranty work done by Heritage Skoda/SEAT in Bristol for the Leon which was dead easy (faulty LED headlight unit and a keyless-GO key fob that failed). They were just totally disinterested in Bath. So this is another reason why I want to be armed and ready as it seems likely I will have to buy from somewhere that isn't local based on what stock is around!

Amazing - you've just armed me with a quick list of things to look out for when viewing which is ideal! Thank you

Amazing! This is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much. I have (and love) ACC on the Leon. Could not by a motorway car without it. It has always intermittently done similar things to what you describe, although perhaps not as frequently. I am very used to a bit of throttle blip to get it to behave as I want! Some of the other bits do sound like they have been very painful though. Pleased to have a guide to follow; thanks!

Top advice! If they want my money (in a slowing car market) I expect them to play ball! I think it will also come with the caveat of if it doesn’t work I will be returning it so at least they’re primed…

Thank you! I had seen a few of your topics and the journey you have been through! Certainly sounds like it can all be sorted, but don’t really want to have to deal with recurrent issues if I can! I note that both approved used and the “all-in” warranty both don’t cover software/electrical system updates so will have to be prepared to argue my case if there was an issue. Equally I can always return it within the first 30 days if there are issues I suppose (or at least threaten to). Have the TPI documents been uploaded on the forum somewhere?

That's fair - the software versions are quite clear that I want it running 1941. Hardware versions I haven't seen detailed anywhere specifically although I've skimmed through most of the 46 pages on here; is there a repository for this?

Apologies for the hijack; is there a summary thread pinned anywhere with issues with the 20-21 models? I’m thinking of buying an SEL First Edition as they are very good value now, but would like to be well prepared at the dealers. I’ve updated software before on VAG cars so I can manage that if I have to, and I also have WiFi coverage on my drive so that’s not a big deal either. But I am concerned if there is any hardware that needs changing…

Brilliant - has fixed my issues! Thanks!

Hi @varooom, Please could you share the link with me also? Many thanks
