Basic roof bars

Followers

30 May, 20188 yr

Hi everyone. Ive just recieved a pair of basic roof bars from a seller off ebay. I have a octavia 5 door hatch 2014 plate. They are genuine skoda bars and state they fit the octavia 5e3? The front bar attaches in place in the door seal holes but its so tight it has bowed a small area of thecroof where the feet sit. The rear bars dont even fasten as they are so tight, only one side will clamp shut. Has anyone had any experience witj these please?

Factory fitted electric towbar is not releasing after a long time not using

Factory fitted electric towbar is not releasing after a long time not using

candasm · 5 minutes ago5 min

Hi Everyone, I have a Factory fitted electric Tow bar. Last time I use, it was 5 years ago I believe. I tried to use it Today no chance not releasing. It has a green light always but whenever I pull it out light changes to red blinking and tow bar is not releasing. I used some wd-40 and rust cleaner but still result didn't' change. I also tried to pull out the tow bar with bare hand or hit the mechanism with a wood or hammer(kindly), still no chance. Anyone faced the same issue?

vRS 4.5 annoyances (and birds!)

Guest · 30 April30 Apr

Hi all, I've had my mk4.5 Octavia vRS for almost 3 weeks and while I find it to be a great car overall, there's some things that are a bit annoying. Lane assist: I understand what it's trying to do but the implementation seems flawed so it's a good thing it's easy to switch off. I had forgotten to turn it off today though and while driving down a road which is wide enough for two cars but only if you stick to the edge of the road, the lane assist kept trying to push me closer to the centre.

Scala 2019, Infotainment Issues

WillAA · 2 July2 Jul

Hi guys, I just bought a 2019 skoda scala 1.0 TSI. My infotainment is quiote troublesome. It seems it's rebooting randomly, somentimes it take a minute driving other time is fine for 15 min then freezes and reboot but it always does stop working at some point. Now I am not sure if the unit needs replacing but i was thinking of doing an update first and try to solve it that way. This is the current update i think it's an ancient one... The problem is I can't find any updates on the official sk

Has anyone else found the new Driver Monitoring System on the Mk4 Superb to be overly sensitive?

Has anyone else found the new Driver Monitoring System on the Mk4 Superb to be overly sensitive?

ducu · 19 hours ago19 hr

Today I drove around 150 km on the motorway using ACC/Travel Assist, and I received the “Pay attention to the road” warning roughly 20 times. What concerns me most is that while some warnings might be expected if I briefly glance away, others occurred unexpectedly, even when I was clearly looking ahead at the road. The behavior is similar regardless of whether I’m wearing sunglasses or not, so I don’t think that’s the main factor. At this point, it’s becoming more distracting than helpful. I’
