Sticky petrol flap

Followers

9 January, 201412 yr

Today I went to but some petrol in the car and I had a problem getting the flap open, Instead of a light push I had to push it pretty hard to get it open. When I got home I checked the operation of the plungers and all seems well but I still gave them a spray with some wd40. Its seems as if the petrol cap flap isn't pushing the release rod enough. Has any one had this problem before as I would like to fix it sooner than find I carnt open the flap one day.

Front Windscreen wiper has an annoying issue

RMH · 20 hours ago20 hr

We bought a 2024 Skoda Karoq 1.5 SE L back in May this year. Pretty much ever since we've had it, the front wiper will periodically (randomly) wipe the windscreen when there's blue skies and no rain. Sometimes it will wipe once, sometimes three or even four times. It has been doing this seemingly more frequently in the last couple of weeks when we were away on holiday. Driving back from north Wales yesterday. it happened on seven or eight occassions. I've checked the position of the wiper lever

2020 Kamiq with ACC - opinions?

Maxr · 4 December, 20241 yr

I'm looking at a 2020 Kamiq SEL as a second car, which has the fairly rare 'adaptive' cruise control (not 'predictive adaptive'). I've had mixed experiences with ACC on two Citroens. My recent C5 has it, and it works great and very smoothly so long as you remember that all it really does is keep you on station with the car in front and stop you running into it. Before that had an older Berlingo. That had ACC that it worked, but that system braked fairly hard and later than I'd have liked, then a

Reversing camera display change after update.

NormanE · Thursday at 22:031 day

Whilst in France last week my car received an infotainment update, The car is a 2024 Octavia Vrs diesel hatchback, with a reversing camera retrofitted by East Yorkshire Retrofit. After the update two odd things happened. Firstly the reversing camera did not work at all the first time I reversed the car after the update. Then it worked, but instead of the full screen showing the camera view, it is now two thirds camera view and one third a top-down outline of the car with curved lines showing the

Octavia Mk4 not allowing me to become primary user

TattieMasher · 9 hours ago9 hr

Hi guys, Just bought a 2020 Octavia and end up stuck in a seemingly infinite "Please wait..." loop when trying to become the primary user on the infotainment. I was able to set up an account on the MySkoda app and add my car's VIN. I then get to the "activate vehicle" stage and it directs me to continue on the infotainment. My email/password has been added as a user, but any time I tap into "become primary user" it just hangs and says "please wait...". I've tried it with the car's eSIM active,
