For the Škoda Scala (Scala; chassis NW1; model years 2019-) our catalogue lists 39 features in 12 categories. Below you see per category what we can switch on or retrofit.
Each feature shows how certain we are: “likely possible” means several independent sources confirm it; “checked at diagnosis” means it differs from car to car. Final compatibility is always confirmed at the diagnosis of your car.
Seven Tuning works in Rotterdam and Waddinxveen: the workshop is in Waddinxveen and serves Rotterdam and the surrounding area. Remote coding works anywhere in the Netherlands and abroad, when the job allows it.

Lighting (10)
Comfort indicator flash count
One tap of the indicator stalk gives more flashes than the standard three, for example five, handy when changing lanes.
Pulsing start button
The start/stop button glows with a pulsing light until the engine is running, as on more expensive models.
Only with push-button keyless start.
Coming/leaving home automatic and longer
The headlights stay on longer after you get out and also switch on automatically when you unlock, without flashing the stalk first.
Cornering lights via the fog lamps
When turning at low speed the fog lamp on that side lights up so you see the corner better.
Only with factory front fog lamps.
High-beam assistant release
High beam switches on and off automatically depending on oncoming traffic and street lighting; the chosen setting can be remembered.
Requires the right windscreen camera; not possible on every version.
Daytime running lights – adjust via menu
A daytime running light setting appears in the vehicle menu; we agree the desired behaviour with you.
Legal daytime running light requirements apply; the final setting is agreed in the workshop.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop.
Daytime lights with parking brake – adjust
The daytime running lights can switch off while the parking brake is applied, for example when waiting with the engine running.
Final setting agreed in the workshop.

Rear lights with daytime lights – adjust
Along with the front daytime running lights the rear lights can also be on, making the car more visible from behind.

Rear lights visible with tailgate open
With the tailgate open, lights or the third brake light stay visible to traffic behind.
Interior lights fade in and out
The interior lights fade up and down gradually instead of switching on and off abruptly.
Screens and instruments (7)
Video in motion
Videos and images stay visible on the infotainment screen while driving, so the passenger can keep watching.
For the passenger only.
Condition: MIB2/MIB3
Needle sweep at start-up
When you start the car, the gauge needles sweep once to full scale, like on sporty models.
Only visible with analogue gauges.
Refuel amount in the display
The instrument cluster shows how many litres still fit in the tank. Handy at the fuel station.
Digital speed in the display
Your speed is also shown as a number in the instrument cluster.
Different digital cockpit layout
The digital cockpit gets a different look, for example the sportier design of a top trim level.
Available styles depend on cluster and software version.
Condition: Virtual Cockpit
Navigation and compass in the cluster
Navigation prompts, compass or phone are also shown in the instrument cluster, so you look at the centre screen less.
Navigation requires a factory navigation system.
Off-road view with compass and angle
An off-road screen with compass, steering angle and altitude information appears in the infotainment.
Driver assistance (4)
Lane assist – remember last setting
Lane assist remembers the last chosen state at the next start instead of always resetting. We agree the setting together.
Safety system; on newer cars legislation may require it to be active at every start.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop.
Lane assist – adjust intervention point
Choose whether lane assist intervenes early or late, or guides adaptively within the lane. Set up in consultation.
Safety system; final setting in the workshop.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop.
Hill start assist setting
Hill start assist is adjusted so the car holds the brake when pulling away on a slope the way you prefer.
Brake function; we test after adjusting.
Parking sensors – auto-activation and tones
Parking sensors switch on automatically when slowly approaching obstacles, and beeps and radio muting are set to your liking.
Only with factory parking sensors.
Convenience (3)
Start-stop – remember last setting
Where possible the car remembers that you switched start-stop off, so you do not have to press the button every drive. We agree this per car.
Possibilities differ by build year; we discuss this beforehand.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop.
Register a new battery
After a battery replacement the new battery is registered so charging and start-stop work properly.
Service interval reset and setting
After servicing we reset the service reminder and set the oil and inspection interval if needed.
Driving and performance (3)
Lap timer in the instrument cluster
A stopwatch / lap timer appears in the instrument cluster menu, operated with the steering wheel buttons.
Sharper throttle response
The accelerator responds more directly so the car feels livelier. Engine output does not change.
Sportier power steering
Power steering is set slightly heavier and more direct for more feel at higher speed.
Access and locking (2)
Alarm system and horn signal
The factory alarm is enabled or set so that the horn sounds during a break-in attempt.
Without an alarm siren the system uses the horn.
Auto lock while driving, unlock in P
The doors lock from a low speed and unlock again when you select P on the automatic gearbox or switch off.
Audio (2)
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Your phone connects wirelessly to the screen for CarPlay or Android Auto, no cable needed.
Only possible on MIB3 with Wi-Fi and suitable software.
Condition: MIB3 with Wi-Fi
Hide the AM band
The unused AM band disappears from the radio, so switching between FM, DAB and media is quicker.
Climate (2)
Heated seat memory
The last heated-seat level is switched on again on your next drive.
Fan speed visible in Auto
Even with the climate control on Auto you can see how hard the fan is blowing.
Comfort (2)
Mirrors folding on lock
The door mirrors fold in automatically when you lock the car and fold out when you unlock.
Only with factory power-folding mirrors.

Sounds and chimes (2)
Acoustic lock confirmation
When locking and unlocking with the key the car gives a short beep or horn chirp as confirmation.
Door-open chime with ignition on
The warning tone when a door is open with the ignition on is adjusted or turned off.

After fitting LED number plate lights the car is adjusted so no bulb-failure warning appears.
Only with approved (E-marked) LED units.
Safety (1)
Seatbelt reminder – adjust
The seatbelt reminder behaviour is adjusted, for example for work on private grounds. We agree the setting together.
Safety function; final setting agreed together.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop.
