The car is an Octavia 150,Hatch.Technology 2018

The predictive cruise control etc interferes with the parking sensors,and I have been given the story that the car has to put on a special jig ,wheels taken off and possibly the wiring loom replaced ,me thinks this sounds like a lot of old pony and trap.

Has anyone also heard of this problem and is the treatment given genuine....????

Wouldn't this be a warranty job anyway?

Predictive? Assume that was meant to be adaptive? 

 

Is the radar for the cruise control causing the front parking sensors to activate?

 

Ultimately it is a warranty job so wouldn't worry too much

Yes you are right ,its the long winded description of what is required to correct it is somewhat like overkill.I suspect that they have to get Skoda approval for the so called 3 to 5 days of work.

The bummer is that I introduced my son into the wonders of Skoda with this car.

 

Myself still having fantastic time with my 62 reg Skoda Octavia Scout 140bhp  currently I have clocked 85k miles and going like a rocket .Solid in near;y six yrs only replaced light bulbs(preferred),service on time ,cam belt at 75k miles with pump.

My opinion for what its worth Series 2 were better built before VW finance got their nose in.

I cant see how the ACC radar & parking sensors are linked?

What is the problem you are having which has led the dealer to come to this conclusion?

 

At the end I guess if you are having problems with ACC or CitySafetyBraking (not sure what Skoda officially call it) then you will need the radar calibrating.

It requires the correct Equipment but should only be maybe half a day work rather than a week as suggested...

Thank you Gabbo

I think that you are probably on the correct path.

As for parking sensors if a drop of rain sits on mine they go

off like I have hit something.dry them off and all is well.

 

Well we will see what happens and give feedback for general knowledge for others as well.
