Hi All… could do with a pointer. Had my iPhone plugged into car … smart link working.. then nothing. Get a message saying “You can activate this function by means of an activation key . Please contacts your dealer “. I have held the on/ off button for 10 secs AND done a factory re set. Nothing. Any suggestions ? (Car is a Mark 3, Laurent Clement bought from Arnold Clark ). Cheers

Is it not mirrorlink you use? So your phone screen (almost) is on the car screen?

 

I’ve not used it in a while but I believe your phone needs the Skoda app, so might be worth removing that and reinstalling

@Craig0 - u need to take the car back to a Skoda dealer and get the SWaP codes reactivated/enabled again.

It's not a quick job as it needs back door tools/software.

Also depends on how busy the workshop is.
