Re: Skoda Kamiq SE TSI 95 - purchased new October 2023

If it's anything like the Bolero unit on ours, if you leave it "on" it's much less intrusive. It seems to be powering in standby that triggers the unnecessary verbal excess.

Hello, and welcome aboard! Assuming this is a direct replacement, 3 litres.

Re: Digital owners’ manual

Re: Digital owners’ manual

Yuk, I'm sure they used to offer a straight PDF download, but seems they want you to browse via their horrid website now. Which trim, year and infotainment are you after, I might be able to find something over the weekend?

Re: Updated Skoda Kamiq revealed

The controls below the infotainment unit look to have a fan speed up/down control. Or am I just hoping? I saw something in Skoda's words about this the other day pertaining to new rotary controls for the air con, which I assume related to the widely hated touch climate control. Having only the SE w...

Re: Car Service History

The old log book had data privacy issues, and probably then fell foul of GDPR in due course. When we traded in our Yeti (with log book) we were directly contacted by the guy who'd gone on to buy it at auction. I took this up with our dealer, who apologetically said the log book was to blame, since i...

Re: Car Service History

Can't see this option on my login! I wonder where they've hidden it, or if it's another feature they've made trim level dependent... Edit: seems to be part of the Remote Access package, which I think is not standard for all trims.

Re: Skoda Kamiq to have redesign this year

Good to see the line being developed (especially when the Fabia's future is reportedly somewhat shaky) but I can't honestly say this looks a visual improvement. Maybe it'll look better in the flesh than weirdly lit renders.

Re: Stop / start de-activate

Re: Stop / start de-activate
