So.. went to the car to get info for a response for another topic and car won't start and error messages scrolling one after the other on the dash. Tried locking and unlocking...no effect. Went to grab my phone to see how to access the service menu and see if there was update. It said updating don't use the car and rebooted but then went into the engineering menu and wanted me to put the media usb in. I cancelled out of that and system rebooted. Now all works though. Has anyone had this? Car seems OK but am concerned I'm going to be stranded one day. 

 

Can skoda's in Auatralia OTA update software by themselves?

 

Cheers,

I should have said I has a my23 rs estate (not sure if that makes a difference).

Post an image of your Software Train, we can advise you of what update if any is available.

Just curious, but which app are you using, MySkoda or Skoda Connect Essentials? I can only log into the latter with my VIN, the 'new' MySkoda app isn't compatible with my MY23 car apparently.

In Australia we dont have access to the myskoda app like in Europe. It's pretty much useless here sorry. Only has details of nearest skoda dealer. 

Thanks. I have only recently ventured into the app and that situation has become apparent. Seems there are 4 or 5 countries unsupported. MySkoda Connect tells me pretty much nothing, as you say!

Yep, off to dealer tomorrow morning to get them to have a look. Seems to be ok now but given it wouldn't even start yesterday, concerned ill be stranded 1 day. Have had a couple of wierd glitches sporadically that says parking sensors not working but that was the extent of the gremlins.

Update

Good luck with it, pls keep us posted re. the outcome! I also read your post concerning HUD displays. Always handy to be aware of these occurrences...

So, an update. They think the ignition relay is faulty so swapped it out. They think that'll fix it but hadn't seen this error before. Fingers crossed.

 

I was also due an update to fix the radar, park sensors and steering wheel issue. Wasn't actually having an issue there but have heard a few of us have been, hopefully fixes that for you all. 

Fingers crossed indeed, hope the relay 'fix' works for you.
