  • Skoda Rapid Spaceback

    Hello together, I need your help and hope that I can get it repaired myself without a visit to the workshop. My wife’s trunk lighting no longer works. I’ve already changed the bulb, but it didn’t work. In addition, the car closes even though the trunk is open. The display does not show the open trunk. Does anyone have an idea what it can be and how I get it repaired as layman? Thank you in advance.

  • When did you change the ZR on the EA211 (1.2 TSI with 110 hp)

    Servus into the Rapid Forum, when looking for the car for my better half, I saw a rapid offer. It’s a 1.2 TSI with 110 hp and EZ in 2015. According to the seller, it can only be the EA211 engine series. Now I read everywhere that these engines have a maintenance-free timing belt. But now butter with the fish, how maintenance-free are they really and when did you change yours? I personally would change the ZR at the price negotiations. a 10 year old belt is actually a big risk. Or is ma actually taught a better thing at the Rapid? Thank you in advance and always good driving

  • Skoda Scala purchase advice place back bench

    Hello together, I swan aktuel between a used Octavia Kombi or a Scala. I drive mainly city traffic and country road. I drive highway every 1 to 2 months approx. 1000 km, where I drive on average 130 km/h. Of the 3-cylinder 1.0 engines I am personally not so convinced with longer motorway rides, which is why the 1.5 TSI should become. Currently my search criteria are from 2021, up to 60,000 km. Up to approx. 20.500 Euro. At the Scala there are many offers here, at the Octava I’m still unsure about the place for a later child seat on the back seat. Does anyone know how much less space is on the back bench at the Scala opposite Octavia? Thank you and say hi to Johannes

  • Scala Android Car Apple CarPlay wireless

    Hello together, I’ve always been at the same place since I had the Scala, disconnecting connections with different devices Apple and Android makes no difference. Is always at the same place at home in the border area to Austria and at my pendulum line near Hof to the Czech Republic. With cable everything is wonderful, with wireless not. Break off briefly and then connect again. Original Skoda. With my ChinaDisplay in Vito everything is great and that does not happen. and can offer a solution? Other frequency band or regional settings or something? Thanks Simon

  • Underbody protection right after the new purchase?

    Hello dear members, I would be very pleased about your experiences, opinions and tips. My questions: 1. Is it worth doing a Skoda Scala, an underbody protection including cavities, right after the new purchase? That saves a cleaning, since there is no dirt yet. And this alone should probably cost 500-150€. 2. Do you have tips for Aachen/Cologne surroundings? Where did you have it done and for how much? Why am I interested in the topic? Because I like to drive it to the bitter end n would like and hope that with the right care from the beginning, it lasts longer Thank you!

  • Problem with rear flap sensor when the interior lighting is switched on

    When I turn on the interior lighting when the engine is running, a message is displayed in my driver’s display or flashes on that my tailgate is not closed. In addition, a warning sound resonates (as if driving with a door that is not properly closed). If I turn off the interior lighting again, the problem is gone. Has anyone ever had an experience of this or a guess what this might be all about?
