Hi.

I Graham. Or "Papa G". to my 2 Grand daughters :biggrin:

On Saturday, after 30 odd years of driving, I eventually bought my first Skoda! Its a 2013 Octavia VRS Diesel estate. And I love it. I have been into Rallying since I was 11 (I'm now 55) so i'm fully aware of the Marques competition heritage. More-so of late, following the ERC Rally championship in particular.

So Hello to everyone. I'm sure Ill be asking lots of questions in the future.

'Component protection enabled' after Columbus MIB2 firmware update

Dave77 · 12 July, 20232 yr

Hi all, I've just updated my MIB2 Columbus from MHI2_ER_SKG11_K3330 to MHI2_ER_SKG11_K3343. The installation completed okay and shows the new version installed but it seems to have enabled component protection. Now the unit has had component protection disabled and SmartLink (AA) enabled before, my car is a 2014 Octavia so originally had a MIB1 in it. Would a firmware update have reset those?

Is the age of the car related to the current v1989 update issues?

WaveyDavey · 12 November, 202512 Nov

Just wondering if the age of the car, and therefore the Infotainment unit, is a contributing factor when it comes to the current issues people are having when installing the latest v1989 software update? Is it worth commenting on here if you have had issues or not and what age your car is to try and see if there is a relationship between the age of the car and whether issues have arisen?

Retrofit footwell leds

Xiin · 17 June, 20241 yr

Hi, Have anyone retrofitted footwell leds to they'r Scalas ? Im looking for confirmation that I am reading this chart correctly : Do I hook up positive wire to "T73c" connectors pin "65" ? I got a set of 4 lights and harness from Aliexpress and also couple different brackets to try if I could also install these under front seats so they illuminate in the back aswell. And also does anyone know correct way to code these to work properly (Im using OBDEleven) ?

Removing the glove compartment

AMartinD · 31 August, 20169 yr

Hi folks, me again... Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the hinged moving section of the glove compartment from its outer enclosure without having to remove the entire glove compartment assembly from the dash? Something has 'escaped' over the back of the glove compartment and is trapped between the movable section and the outer enclosure with the result that it's preventing the glove compartment from opening fully, so I want to extricate the offending object before anything get
