Spoke too soon. It was locking on for several minutes at a time yesterday and then flickering on and off...😥

Now got an experimental wiring harness fitted to the car... 🤔

@TheWanderer  Was all fixed finally and is this 'Experimental Wiring Harness' available to any owner with a car with the same issue?

Obviously Skoda / VW will have them produced and ready to supply and there will be a TPI so that Dealership staff now know.  

Since it was fitted there have been no more instances of Oil Sensor Failure, the car has done >3k miles faultlessly. 

Good.

Not many miles done since then but as long as they will cover it under an extended warranty since it was an experimental part. 

I'm going to be buy breakdown cover in a couple of weeks to cover me for the remaining time that I have this vehicle. 

Be careful if buying an Extended Warranty from Skoda / VW or what appears to be a Skoda Warranty.

They will sell it and you will read the exclusions, read the ones on known faults.

 

Even though your car was fixed under a Skoda Warranty and by an Approved Repairer so should be as good as intended that does not stop the  Warranty provider / management / handler knocking back a claim because of a Known issue.  

That is known by them and ones that should have been addressed.   This is known as taking the p!55 in some circles.

Won't be buying an extended warranty for the next 8 months, too expensive. 

 

Got to buy a set of brake pads in the autumn as they must be getting low now at 22k miles
