I had to originally, a "shop" update and a "registration" update, over the last few days the "shop" update seems to have disappeared, so I'm presuming its actually completed but I'm still getting the "registration" update. Had a bit of a panic this morning because the infotainment centre started up with a app opening than came up the can't open app on a black screen, thought had locked up completely, but when I pressed the Home but it was as it should be, thankfully.

I've tried a soft reset and that didn't work.

These are the updates I'm getting daily, both go to 100% and both say they've updated, and will complete on restarting the vehicle, but the next day both will come back! I've found the Shop App, which I did know existed, so not sure if thats new. But can't find the Application app anywhere.

Hi, how can you see what maps version you have? I take it thats an automatic update as well?

Hi all, Anyone else getting repeat Infotainment updates that don't appear to be installing, I'm getting this problem on my 2024 Superbs Infotainment unit nearly every day, when I look on the Information tab I can see the updates and when it says they're installed, and a prompt to say the installation will be active the next time the car is started, so all looks correct. But literally the next day I'll get another message on the screen to say updates are available and ready to install, and the same process has repeated itself for about 2 weeks now. I've looked on the Net and it looks like its a Skoda issue over all the ranges but there doesn't seem to a resolution. Has anyone else had this? If so have you got it sorted or is it a trip to the dealer? Cheers

So recently had to do a hard reset on my Infotainment unit, phone wouldn't start up and was just sat in "waiting" anyway the hard reset sorted that, it also did an update when restarting too, but I believe as a result of the hard reset and maybe the update, I'm now getting the "s-pin not set" warning message on the "don't forget your belongings" closing screen. I can't remember see it before. So I went in to my user profile, which is the primary user profile and turned on the s-pin protection, not realising that this meant every time the Infotainment unit starts I need to enter the s-pin, when entering it you can tick a box to remember your s-pin so you don't need to enter it each time, but this turns of the s-pin protection so you get the s-pin warning when the Infotainment unit is turning off!! Literally going around in circles!! Is this normal and I've just missed the message before? is it the consequence of the update? Or am I missing something when trying to set the s-pin not to be used every time? Cheers

Phone call at 3:30 to say it's done and ready to pick up, job for tomorrow morning, that's less than 36 hours, only got fo drive the Audi home and now to Skoda, Skoda are even going to arrange the pick up of the Audi with Enterprise!!

Waiting for them to ring me about when they expect the parts!!

Update, car went in today, they looked at the photos I'd taken of what the AA had found, said they'd never seen that fault on such a new Skoda before. Got picked up by Enterprise and have a nice Audi S3 24 plate DSG sat on the drive now. Thought they take advantage of the 48 hours they had to get their diagnostics done, but by 1:30 got a phone call from Skoda to say they'd done their tests and they couldn't find anything more than the AA had diagnosed, their only problem was because of how the pipes were situated it was hard to tell if it was just the bottom union leaking, or the top union leaking on top of the bottom union without stripping both out, so with that in mind they're replacing both unions which include the pipes fitted to them too!! Also because it's gone through Skoda Assist they have to have the car repaired with 24hours of getting the parts, obviously we have to take as gospel when the parts come in stock. Must say that for me Skoda Assist have been great, so far!!

I've had this already, had to chase my dealer up, even though Skoda Assist told me the dealer should ring by midday, they have no courtesy cars available so got to have an Enterprise hire car, which I'm not particularly impressed with, especially as it means being picked up at my dealers by an Enterprise driver, and driven back to their office to sign the paperwork, and then the point your referring to, they have 48 hours to diagnose the problem, I questioned this as I was told if I called Skoda Assist, the AA would diagnose the problem and recommend if it needed to go to Skoda, the other option was to wait till the middle of July for their first free diagnostic appointment!! They said they can't go by the AA diagnosis and needed to do their own, only bonus is it's now 48hours and not 4 weeks!! And although they have the AA diagnosis, which it obviously is, they can't give me a time as to when the car will be repaired, I fear this is going to get tricky!!

The AA man believe they probably damaged the O-ring when they were building the car and it's most likely always been like it.

So after owning my 2024 Superb for a few months, imagine my horror when the low coolant warning came on and I needed to top the cooling up with over 500ml of water, even more worrying when I'd gone through a similar issue my 2017 Superb that ended up being the EGR cooler, so after another 350miles and the level had gone down slightly, rang my local Skoda today to book it in to be checked, they couldn't see it for a few weeks but advised me to call Skoda Assist and get the AA to check it out, and then they'd have to arrange to have it in within 48 hours, so did just that, AA came out within the hour, pressure tested the system which seemed to be holding but found the leak, a very slight weep on the heater exchange connection on the bulkhead, looks like it been weeping for months, if not since manufacturing and just topped up by the previous owner. Should get a phone call tomorrow for them to book it in and give me a courtesy car, Impressed with Skoda Assist and the AA.

As far as I'm aware, from buying my previous Superb, the cooling mod is only needed on a 2.0TDi, 190/200bhp, DSG, 4x4, I know this because I was looking at one that exact spec and asked Skoda for a quote for a Towbar and the computer said NO, much to their surprise, it was when they looked in to it they found that this specific engine, gearbox and drivetrain needed a cooling mod fitted on the production line to be ready for a Towbar to be fitted. I dropped the 4x4 and then they could get a quote, used an independent Towbar specialist anyway.

I tow a caravan, so had a TowTrust removable towbar fitted by a local towbar specialist, had one on my previous Superb too, does exactly what you'd expect a towbar to do very well and its easy to use too. Specialist used a full dedicated wiring kit and it was properly coded in to the car too, so shows the indicator warning on the dash, when in reverse a picture of the car shows on infotainment screen with a caravan hitched up, the rear sensors disabled but the fronts still active. Also switches of the rear fog light and I also believe the reverse lights too, as well as disabling the car blind spot warning system. All for just over £700. I enquired at Skoda when I was buying the car and the saleswoman told me to get an independent quote because Skoda quote by the hour, it would be silly money and it would be a lot cheaper.

Hi all, looking for a bit of help, I have the full touch screen infotainment system, the Columbus I believe. Only a year old. I've tried a couple of different USB sticks for my music files, USB2 and USBC, different memory sizes as I'd read they can struggle with large sized USB sticks, tried to get as fast a read rate as possible but I'm still having problems with my music not playing without jumping or pausing, which I find a bit strange as its solid state. Has anyone else had this problem? Anyone found a solution? Cheers
