Virtual Dash / Head Unit Wierdness

Featured Replies

Been away from the forums for a while, mainly posting in the bike section these days, but now have a Karoq Sportline, which is "OK", I'm sure I made a mistake coming from my Superb Sportline ...maybe.

 

Anyway, the point of this is over the last few weeks, the car has developed an electronics gremlin, it's only just covered 2k miles.

 

The Headunit will lock up and Crash, or just randomly reboot, it's a fairly frequent thing, once a week at least.

 

A couple of times over the last month, the car's electronics would not shut down, as in I parked up, I pressed the KESSY Button, Dash stayed live, headunit still playing, open the door, head unit continues, Virtual cockpit stayed live displaying the clocks. I have to start the car, wait a moment or two, then shut it off again.

 

It's off to the dealer this Thursday, but I've little confidence in them as since Alex Lawrie were taken over by Johnsons, the attitude towards service and fault finding has been pretty dire, Lightcliffe are local but not much better.

 

I've got the codes that were logged from Carista as I bought that, but wondered has anyone else with Virtual cockpit and Amundsen headunit experienced the same / similar?

 

Cheers

 

Tony

 

 

The Wanderer has virtual fleapit and seems to have had a few electronic gremlins so far so you guys may be Skoda virtual guinea pigs.:thumbdown:
