Diesel cold starting problem (Non Skoda)

A lead acid cell should deliver 2.2 volts. A "12v" battery has 6 cells so you should have 13.2v. If you cant get more than 12.6v after charging then it is knackered.

So something that's "only" working at 95.45double recurring percent efficiency is knackered is it?

More or less. If it won't stay higher than that, absolutely. The terminal voltage/performance gradient of lead-acid batteries is not linear.

Rear View Camera....again!

Berisford · 13 April, 20197 yr

Noticed today that my rear view camera is seeing more than it used to, that is, I can now see some of the number plate and body work top and bottom. I'm sure it used to be just a nice clear picture of the rear without anything extra? Am I mistaken, does everyone see the number plate and bodywork?

Upgrading Infotainment System To Get Android Auto

Deano2004 · 12 January, 20242 yr

Hi All, I have recently inherited a 2015 Skoda Fabia from my late Grandad, at current it has the Bolero (I think) 5Q0035820. I have been told in order to get Android Auto I should upgrade this to the 5Q0035842. To do this is the only thing I need to change the box behind the glovebox or do I need to change the screen as well. Additionally I have found a listing for a 5Q0035842B from a Skoda Octavia, am I correct in thinking this will work in my Fabia.

No option to Fade Speakers front to back on Infotainment

MankoBranko · 21 hours ago21 hr

Hi, I recently bought a '22 Kamiq and found that the rear speakers aren't working. When I go to the Sound > Position section of the infotainment screen, I have the cross on the screen and I am able to fade the speakers left to right, however there are no arrows on the vertical axis and you cannot fade the speakers front to back. I have tried a Hard and Factory reset but this does not fix the issue. I have briefly read that maybe this means a wire is bust or a speaker is broken which is cau

Walnut Blasting: is it worth it?

peagreenblade · 8 hours ago8 hr

I have a 12 year old Skoda Octavia mk3 TSI 1.4 with 155000 miles on the clock. It has JUST scraped through its MOT after repeated emissions failures due to carbon buildup. The mechanic has told me he doesn't want to see the car back next year as it won't pass again and cleaning the carbon deposit off wouldn't be worth it given the age and value of the car. I've read a lot about Walnut Blasting to remove carbon buildup. Would it be worth it in my case or is the mechanic right, and I should just
