What about the r32 rear arb? is there such a beast. is that why you opt for uprated on the rear. Will this setup work on the estate 4x4?

I have just discovered my driver side passenger door only locks manualy. I see there is a topic on this but my lights all seem to work but I'll give it a go. My main issue is that my wing mirror controller doesn't control the drivers door mirror, both left and right channels operate the left hand mirror. Does anyone have experience of this, possible suggestions on a fix or is it related to the door issue.

Mac11irl, Yeah thats on instant, it gets hillarious at times. I'd be chuffed with the high 50's I do notche though that economy goes out the window at 30 it prefers 35

My route takes me through 30-70mph zones and has hills up and down. I'm new to having a MPG monitor but so far It seemed to average 41-48 I think. Down hill it was chanting some nonsense about 112mpg and 300 odd then ----. Up hill around 38, most of the time @50mph the live read was saying 48-50. I was expecting 38 max in my dreams.

Yeah, Now that you mention it, It is kinda vomity. The dash isn't to bad its the whole ensemble that is boak!

Does anyone know if the MK2 door cards are a straight swap for the MK1

Cheer's pipes it is. I see the TIP being replaced a lot on the forum any words of wisdom on that? For the Dubs I used to go to Euro Parts of GSF, VW were always weird with their pricing I found things that broke unexpextedly were cheap and frequent faults costly. I've been used to ebay due to my previous daily drivers being Capris and MK1/2 golfs so often the bay is the place to be due to a steady decline in scrappys. I'll check out the oem stuff although I do intend to make it a sleaper. Do you know if the OEM DV can work with induction kits or is it going to be a hack job. I'd quite like the dumpvalve noise, though not to much.

Hi, I've been browsing the forum for the past few days since I've joined and I've seen some nice cars. It's coming to the end of the month and I'm thinking of investing in a dump valve and maybe a replacement pipe kit. Ebay is the name of the game for me as it tends to be cheaper and easier so I was thinking of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JS-Performance-Skoda-Octavia-VRS-1-8T-20V-AUQ-Silicone-Ancillary-Hose-Kit-/331113748494?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d17ead80e and this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/R-Spec-Twin-Piston-Dump-Valve-BOV-for-VW-Golf-GTI-Passat-Bora-1-8T-20v-Turbo-/221403507457?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item338cad6b01 The lot for around 200 quid. There are a lot of unbranded kits, generic valves, big names all with massive price differences. Anyone had issues with the unbranded stuff. I think switching the pipes is a good as I've seen it as a must do mod and will give solve any leak issues. Cheers

Hi SimonJ Thanks for the offer but I'm not sure I want to go leather, I'm into my synthetics.

Additionally! Do the air bags matter? If I put no airbag seats in does it screw up the rest of the system?

Cheers guys, Cupra seats are a possibility as if I can black/yellow ones it will blend easier with this interior.

Ha! He would be welcome to them.

Anyone got anything in a deep dish style? Do they work?

Hey, My interior is borderline horrific yellow/tan. Anyone have any recommendations on what I can swap out that fit's in the estate. I'm sure the salon type in black would fit but does it's seats fold like the estate? What's the big deal with airbags, I don't want to get one in the face. Does it jus unplug and then you remove the seat? Cheers

Hi, I'm new to the Skoda side of things having previously owned Dubs. Jus picked up a 2001 87000 mile Skoda Elegance 4X4 1.8 Turbo. So far so good no knocks or nasty noises, however I think the A/C will need recharged. Anyone had any experience with this as Climate control is new to me. I'm looking to up the spec. and power on this beastie so any suggestions? Cheers
