Interesting note: Found that KESSY doesn't work to unlock the car if keyfob is behind my iphone in my pocket. Must block the signal?

It's punishing you for choosing an iPhone. That's correct operation.

Edit: :p

Forgot to mention an interesting fact when i picked my car up. It came with no log book :S Dealer said since MY15, service places are all going digital so i was given a folder of sorts where the receipts would be placed into. Considering i have no plans to get it serviced at Skoda i asked him about my predicament upon taking it to an independent for servicing. He didn't know what to say to that and promptly went and got a log book from a MY14 car.

Its good they gave you a service book knowing you weren't going to service with them. that's a good dealer!

I was told the same thing. No service book. My dealer said that they would keep a record of my servicing and I could get a print out if I wished.

BTW Anyone get a "Welcome Pack" after purchase? Still waiting for mine.

I bought on Nov 08 and still waiting for mine as well

So if you get the vehicle serviced at multiple dealerships - including VW or Audi - can you get the complete service history from an individual dealer?

And how does this work in with VWs privacy policy? Most places these days won't give info on anything as it contravenes privacy rules.

i think that what will happen is that the receipts will become a defacto service book as proof of work being done.
