She finally arrived!

 

 

Love the colour.

 

One thing... I don't think the microphone is working. No one can hear me on bluetooth but I can hear them. I tested unpairing and pairing a different phone, same problem. Also tested voice control and it doesn't pick up anything. Dealer have got it booked in next week but just wondering is there is some simple setting I am missing (And the dealer missed while taking a quick look today)

When the phone connects to Bluetooth in the car, the phone acts like it would when attached to the 'old school' blue tooth headset / Bluetooth headphones - once connected to the car's Bluetooth, adjust the volume on the phone.

Lovely car and a colour that's grown on me since seeing it in the flesh! This may be obvious, but sometimes with my iPhone the audio function (on iphone) when calling is sometimes set to phone, rather than SkodaBT. Not sure it will be this as you can hear them, but thought it may be worth a shot.

No simple setting I'm afraid, sound like an issue with the microphone. Fingers crossed it'll be sorted quickly when you drop it in. Nice colour! :)

Have you tried a reset of the system as a last resort? Had to do it a couple of times for the Nav freezing (hold down standby button)..

Well I picked my brand new Octavia Scout up on Monday and have exactly the same issue. I plugged in to a disgnostic reader (courtesy of a local windscreen place as managed to crack that on day 2!) and it's showing a microphone fault code 1562 (short to earth)

 

Sounds like perhaps a faulty batch of handsfree mic's at the factory?

Thanks Black_Sheep for running a scan this evening. I've got the same fault code as above. Short to earth.

Booked into dealers on Friday so will get them to sort under warranty.

You might want to ask them if they properly PDI'd (pre-delivery inspection) the car before letting you drive it away.

 

Surely the PDI involves a scan for fault codes or at the very least plugging it in to the computer!?

I guess you have tried changing the volume on the steering wheel? When I got mine the volume was all the way down and had to be turned up when dialing a phone number from the car.

 

You probably have but it's worth asking. :)
