Škoda Kodiaq cruise control no longer works

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2016 Skoda Yeti, but I only have limited experience with cars. I had it checked at the garage and it turned out that the control unit was faulty. It cost me 1000 euros to fix the whole thing. Could you give more details about your car? For example, does it have a turbocharger, what mileage has it done, etc.? It might help to understand the situation better and give a more accurate answer.

Hi, thank you very much for your help! My Skoda has reached a mileage of 87654 km. It already has a turbocharger, yes. The last service was six months ago. Do you have any tips on whether the repair is always so expensive or whether there are cheaper alternatives?

Hi again! Well, my Skoda Yeti has similar features to yours and the repair costs were quite high in my case. I could have looked for cheaper garages, but the quality of the work and trust in my mechanic was more important to me. Some parts like the control unit can be expensive because they are very complex. Sometimes used parts are available, but I can't say whether they are a reliable alternative. Ultimately, I would recommend finding a trusted mechanic in your area who is likely to be able to provide an accurate diagnosis and estimate. It's always good to get more opinions before making a decision. Still, as in my case, layman's knowledge can only go so far. Let the professionals do their thing. Hope this helps you out!

Hi, thanks again for your advice! I'll probably make an appointment with my regular garage and get an estimate. It's a shame that the technology is so fragile. But you're right, quality has its price and of course I want my Skoda to run for a while longer. Maybe I can find a good used spare part. Thanks for your support, it really helped me. Have a good day!
