Hi folks

 

First real post here so apologies if these questions have been asked before. I have just taken delivery on my 70 plate 1.5 DSG Edition. First time with Skoda having been Audi all my life. Have to say I really like the car - having done 400 miles in the first week I'm really pleased with it. I'm not sure if others have had the issue but driving home, down the M4 last weekend, the Sat Nav kept "calculating the route" and the cockpit sat nav ended up saying "No positional data" - I'm getting my dealer to take a look at that next week. 

 

However, I am also quite frustrated that the infotainment often doesn't bear any relevance to the manual. I'm hoping that one of you helpful people are able to shed some light on :

 

* How do I get AM radio?

* How do I see the DriveGreen vehicle display?

* I know its a common bug bear but Sat Nav postcode entry is not good - I'm hoping that when the garage sort out the problems that it will be better.

 

Any advice would be gratefully received.

 

Looking at System Information I have

Hardware: H22

Software: 0270

Navigation: 20.9

 

Also, disappointed that the little things, such as the filler funnel and the torch in the boot have been removed. Oh well

 

Other than that a great car

 

Thanks and I look forward to many great days in the car.

Is this a MY20 or MY21 car?

In my MY20 car you just type the postcode into the search bar, instead of the town or point of interest name and it just comes up? Works perfectly, and much easier than previous Yeti where you had to find the right display for the postcode button to appearand then had to keep switching between text and numbers.

I found I can type a postcode into mine, its then converted into some kind of co-ordinates(Latitude and longitude in decimal, I think). It then calculates the route. The postcode itself doesn't seem to be stored by the satnav.

Having successfully entered a postcode, I then Edit and enter a descriptive name and save - works for me

Thanks for the answers gents - just tried it and as you say it converts it to co-ordinates. A bit of a pain, will have to edit and save accordingly.
