Skoda Octavia Smartphone Connection Problems

I'm getting seriously frustrated! I have a 2023 Skoda Octavia with a gasoline engine. My smartphone suddenly can't connect to the car's system. It says there are function restrictions and an error is stored. Could it be something with the fuel system or even the drivetrain? Any ideas?

I drive a Skoda Octavia as well, but a slightly older model. I had a similar problem a while back. Have you tried deleting the phone from the car's system and re-pairing it? Also, is your phone's Bluetooth visibility turned on?

Thanks for the quick reply! I tried deleting and re-pairing, but no luck. Bluetooth visibility is on. What exactly did you do when you had this malfunction?

Yes, that sounds very similar to what happened to mine. I spent hours trying to fix it myself, but nothing worked. Eventually, I took it to a workshop, and they told me it was an incorrect pairing issue. They reset something in the system. I suggest visiting a workshop before the issue escalates, as it might impact brakes or even the ignition system.

Got it sorted. It was a software glitch during pairing. The workshop cleared the error and re-did the connection. Cost 45€, which is fine. Everything's working now!
