Andy, Andyvee & Plod.
Why I am so cross is that I don't think the PDI would cover such things as the call buttons. As I understand it the customer has to supply details of their connect account. The dealer cannot just connect the call buttons and therefore COULD NOT have checked on PDI. My dealer spent nearly an hour trying to get them connected and they simply would not!
In defence of my dealer. Mine is the only Kodiaq he has had delivered to date and the Service department said that on their course the electronics side of the teaching was rushed through very quickly. I am going in on the 3rd July (first date I could manage)
I don't know about the autonomous braking. Apart from the fact it seems to have mind of it's own.
SUK told me the pan roof will close when it rains as long as the car has rain sensitive wipers. (The Yetis did) I have looked everywhere on the car set up on the ICE and there is NO option for rain closure of the roof.
Photographs and videos on ICE. Not essential I know, but it DID work and now it doesn't!.
Creaking door pulls. Only creaking on mine at the moment but others have had to have their complete door cards replaced through faulty workmanship.
Other's complaints that I mentioned.
Stained (bit oxymoronic here :lol: ) Stainless steel trim. Should have been dealt with by dealer but wasn't. Should not have happened in the first place. Ferrous oxide on the bumper , again should not happen in the first place, but dealer should have sorted it.
I am only a poor old pensioner

and paid hard earned retirement cash for my car.
I know the Kodiaq is the most complicated car electronically that Skoda have produced, but all the gizmology therein has been on VDubs for ages. So Skoda should have got it right.
You must have a very lenient attitude if you are prepared to pay North of £30k for a car with so many , albeit, not earth shattering, faults, but of all the new cars I have owned , admittedly far less 'electronic', The Kodiaq is THE worst for faults. So saying, all the electronic
[email protected] aside. It is still the best car of the 76 I have owned and I love it to bits.
As I have said before I have a first class relationship with Meadens, they have a HUGE and brilliant reputation and have justifiably been Skoda Dealer of the Year last year. They only missed it this year because of having a new showroom built.
I have every faith in them to get it put right.
My gripe is they should NOT HAVE TO put all these faults right on Skoda's much vaunted Flagship model and I have to travel 40 miles and waste half a day on multiple occasions to sort out faults that should not be there in the first place.
I admit I am old fashioned and a perfectionist. I neither expect nor will lie down quietly and put up with things that should not happen.
I'm sorry if you don't agree with me, I just hope your cars are faultless.
One of the points of fora is that members should be able to express their opinions. I don't want arguements and I value other's opinions whether or not they agree or disagree with mine.

Anyway all. Have a super weekend driving around in our brilliant Kodiaqs.
TTFN.
p.s. I only mentioned other's problems in my rant to Skoda to try and help get them resolved. If SUK don't know about them they can't complain to the factory .
