It's with great reluctance that I will soon be putting my 2012 candy white Vrs Tdi up for sale if your interested, It's just coming up to 39k miles and is in stunning condition the engine is totally standard as I've never felt the need to mess about with something I consider to be perfect. It has a few subtle but tasteful cosmetic mods such as All badges updated to the new chrome style ones Sunset privacy glass It's been de badged at the rear Its has the black front grill And has had a bury car kit installed All very tasteful and all help to make this car a real head turner It has a full main dealer service history Recently just had a full service 2 new tyres Brake fluid change Air con service and regass And a full 4 wheel hunter alignment It has been my baby for the last 3 years but due to a change in my personal circumstances i now find myself having to sell the best car I have ever owned. Let me know if you interested or require any further information or pictures Paul

Dash bulb out warning light
Bigboy replied to roaddetective's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Hi I had excatly the same problem mine was one of the near side tail lights but it would only actually not work for about 20 seconds and although the bulb out would stay on the bulb would actually work normally after 20 seconds of tuning the lights on. So you need to maybe get sombody else to be stood outside the car ready to check the bulbs as soon as you turn on the lights just incase you have a similar problem to me Hope this helps Paul -
Octavia - Noisy Aircon (Droning) - Warranty claim?
Bigboy replied to Pabs's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Just out of interest can they tell if your system needs a regass without actually re gassing it in other words when they connect up their machine to your car will it tell them if the coolant is low -

Octavia II wheel alignment Tracking Camber Caster Toe
Bigboy replied to LeicsVrs's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Hi Sorry hope you don't mind me butting in on your thread but I've just had my 2012 Vrs hatch four wheel aligned on a hunter rig as I was suffering for excessive wear on the inside edges of my rear tyres near side was a lot worse than the offside. Anyway after looking at the print out i noticed that they had set mine up to the octavia Mk III 2013 specs when my car is in fact a 2012 Mk II I did ring the garage and the guy I spoke to said he didn't think it would make any difference to the set up but that he would check with The mechanic when he come back in on Monday morning. But just wanted to get input from you guys before then so I don't get fobbed off if they have cocked up hopefully you should see a picture of my print out below -
Hi After an advisory on my 1st mot last week about the insides of the rear tyres being close to the legal limit I'm looking to get mine done before I replace the rear tyres. With that in mind Can anybody recomend a good garage to do this in the cheshire or close surrounding area just looking for personal recomendations from any of you guys that may of had it done and been pleased with the service and quality of workmanship they received rather than picking local garage off the align my car.co.uk site Thanks in advance Paul

Not sure if it is any help but just checked the price on Camskill and they are £75.40 each and its about £5.98 delivery for 2 which seems like a great price to me. http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?show=109670 Paul

Yes that is correct they are not meant to work if you have DRLs as the DRLs function as your sidelights

Bulb warning light - vRS CR170
Bigboy replied to DanBoy's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Hi No buddy the side lights in the main headlight units are non working on the fl Vrs as the LEDs act as the side lights. Also you may find the reason you have a warning light on the dash is because you have a bulb thats just about on its last legs and will soon go ive just had the very same problem on mine for a week and then one of the tail lights went completely bulb replaced hey presto no warning light on the dash Hope this helps -
Hi Yes I bought those very ones from the same guy ordered them at 1:30am (yes im a bit of a night owl) and they come the next working day. They are really good Quality and look great I would highly recommend getting these from this guy from my experience with him Paul

Hi Mine doesn't rev above 2500 in Neutral either that's normal I think it's something to do with emissions. But I'm sure if you press the traction control or something like that at it will actually then rev above 2500 in neutral. Not sure about the grinding noise though that doesn't sound good. Paul

New Badges fitted with pictures
Bigboy replied to blueR36's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Pabs They were £18.98 EACH when I got mine back in August of last year so total cost was £37.96 delivered but as I say no need to be breaking lugs off or anything like that . As they were the right ones for my car for a perfect fit. Hope this helps
