When you say 'similar,' do you mean the exact same symptoms – smartphone connection issues and an error message stored? And how did you fix it finally?

Yep exact same thing. I tried everything I could think of, but no luck. Eventually, I gave in and took it to a workshop. They sorted it out pretty quickly. Honestly, it's worth getting it checked before you start digging into other things. Could save you a lot of time and worry about the fuel system or something else.

Thank you for your insights. I followed your advice and took it to a workshop. Turns out it was just an incorrect pairing with my phone. They sorted it out for 45€, and everything is working now. I appreciate the help!

I had something similar happen with my Fabia. It was really frustrating when my phone wouldn't connect. Have you checked the pairing settings on both your phone and the car's system? Maybe try deleting the connection on both ends and starting fresh. Like trying to start a fire with wet wood sometimes it just needs a fresh start.
