I’ve had my Skoda 80 for 5000 miles and the one thing I hated about it, and I mean truly hated was the rear camera. I cursed how I should have got the LeD upgrade, but company car funds got spent elsewhere.

So tonight, after cursing some more, I reversed and this is what I see:

Then I fiddle with the settings:

OMG - forgive me Skoda for bad mouthing you!

I was ready to try and start a UK lawsuit - i’d already complained to company & lease company about how unsafe it was! Oooppps

I hope it is the same for everyone else - I honestly was amazed at the difference.

So if a reasonsble fix is just a cae of changing some of the settings, then surely Skoda could roll it out to everybody through a small software update.

@Rudesing - agree how simple the fix was for me, but it is so simple that I think Skoda would say we should figure it out.

It should come from the factory like this. Then you can tweak it.

Or send out a bulletin to all the Skoda dealers telling them what 'standard' settings the reversing camera should have as part of the PDI?

Thanks for posting ! Which icon on the screen did you press to bring up the adjustment settings; was it the one in green, showing what looks like 3 cars? I don’t have my Enyaq yet.

Also does increasing the brightness at night, then make it too bright and ‘washed out’ during the day, or does it allow you to set something different for daytime?

Thanks
