Afternoon all,

Picked up my first Octavia (used) today...

It's an 05 model...

I'm trying to remove the audio unit to see what connectors I have at the back...I've got as far as removing the surround, but I can't see how to take the unit out!

Going by other threads here I was expecting to see 4 screws - but there's nothing - I think it's clipped in somehow....

Any ideas how to remove it?

Why not use the OEM Ipod connector (Dennison Icelink) or similar?

I don't have an iPod - my MP3 player is made by another manufacturer.

Octavia 2013 Tdi estate. Can't get gear shift into reverse.

JHowe · Saturday at 17:521 day

Hi! I'm in need of some help please. My Octavia estate sat for 8 months unused. The battery went flat (AGM Varta) and doesn't charge. I got the car started with a different battery and then swapped in the dead battery to see if it would start charging. BUT, now the engine was running I needed to move the car a bit and found that the gear stick won't go into reverse gear. It can select 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th but not reverse. I've ordered up a new AGM battery (due in a couple of days) but this reverse

New software available version 1989

MartinOctavia1969 · 18 September, 202518 Sep

I got just the new software version 1989. Curious what's it is gonna bring. Already satisfied with 1985 but i love gadgets and up to date materials. One thing from the beginning with software 1969 til now mine park to pay or pay to park still not working. But i am not using that anyway to prices of parking are ridiculous. So i hope this one is even better then 1985 we will see.

Enabling Traffic Sign Assist/ Fatigue Detection

TumnusCat · 31 March, 20188 yr

I have a 7 seat edition on order but as a stock car it has lane assist but I wasn't able to specify the fatigue detection or traffic sign recognition which were on the nice to have but non essential list. Is it likely I will be able to enable these or get them enabled by someone using VCDS? Is there anything else I might want to get enabled at the same time? Thanks

teddy2006 · 21 minutes ago21 min

Hi, I brought a 2012 Skoda Fabia in May 2026 and the air circulation button (i think) when you press it or turn on aircon which automatically turn on it makes an awful banging noise Has anyone had this issue and know what the solution is (other than leaving off) Also the passenger electric window will open on passenger switch but close only on driver (is that common?) cheers

Outback going, what next?

Aspman · 4 hours ago4 hr

After dropping a wodge on the Outback for a new battery only for the tailgate issues to immediately recur and funnily enough for a internet search to suddenly (wasn't before) flag that there is a persistent and long standing Subaru issue with a parasitic battery drain via the telematics module. Basically the car continually tries to phone home and drains the battery, the tailgate control module is acutely sensitive to voltage meaning that if the car has sat for more than a day (sometime less) th
