Electrical assist faults

Featured Replies

Hi all 

 

Have a 2024 kodiaq, had a few issues from new with various assists not working.  Once the car wouldn't start. Now, for 4 days none of the assist work, orange faults.  So lighting assist, lane departure thingy, no cruise control, front assist, lane departure, etc etc.  

 

Called Skoda who said call the recovery. They have checked it and said it's a software fault for which there is no fix, same as Tiguan but book it in for diagnostics. Anyone else have this? I read a post about F5 sensor fault which sounds similar.  The local dealer don't seem to be calling me back after 3 days and chasing.  Any ideas, what would you do ? Not ideal for new car? Any options here 

 

Thanks !

Unfortunately this is a common issue with the MK2 that affects some but not all.

 

Apparently the fix is a software update but no timescale has been given  - Other than removing a couple of fuses for half an hour to reset the system, it’s a case of waiting for the software from Skoda.

Same here but not had the non starting yet.

Did the turn it off and on again thing a couple of times to no avail but it resolved after driving a short distance.

Hoping this isn’t going to be a regular issue. ??

I had it on a run on 15th December but nothing since. Switched off for 30 mins when I got home and it all reset.

Can you help me with this? I don't want to take the car in for just this AGAIN. Which fuses do I need to unplug for 30 minutes to reset these faults?
