I have lost the side DLR's on my facelift Superb using this Carista app, I seem to have changed DLRs to low beam and now cannot reset even using the MFD option.

 

I have email Carista regarding this issue.

If you don't hear back from them let me know, there are a few things that can be checked to find out why they aren't working using better tools.

can i defeat the seatbelt warning bong?

 

Yes reach under each front seat, locate the wire from the seatbelt clip on the centre tunnel follow it about 6 inches and you will find the joint, and unclip them, job done

I was under the impression that all facelift skodas had side DLRs in the new shape headlights but after spending a weekend in Belfast and seeing lots of Skoda Superb I believe this is only the high end Elegance option. So the Carista app did not loose my side DLR's as they weren't there to start with. 

I have emailed Carista apologizing for my error.

Can anyone confirm it? I don't believe 2000+ buyers have Petrol engine only.... I have Diesel... and what now? I'm going to use it with Carista....
