  1. So after 18 months and 8.5k miles my Octavia has had its first issue. On heading home after a weekend away with the family, I was confronted with a Stop/Start error message followed by the EPC light and a loss of power. The car would still tick over but was very lumpy so a quick call to Skoda Assist and an hours wait for the AA followed. The AA bloke arrived and diagnosed the issue before even opening the bonnet, a common issue with this engine apparently is a failure within the throttle body he says, which after a quick scan with his diagnostics kit confirmed the only error code showing relating to the throttle body. So a tow to my local stearlers for repair followed, that was Sunday afternoon and I'm still waiting to hear from them to confirm the problem and tell me when it will be fixed. 🙄 Is this an issue anybody else has come across either in an Octavia or another VAG car with the 1.0 TSI? At least Skoda Assist have arranged an hire car for me, even if it did take Enterprise all of Monday to source a VAG car to deliver to me.
  2. Hi, Looking for a little help, had the misfortune of a flat last week so had to put the spare tyre on. I managed to lose one of the little plastic bolt caps either while I was changing the flat, or while the garage was replacing the tyre so I need a replacement. Any body know the part code or where I can get a cheap replacement. Thanks
  3. I paid £13,355 for a factory order Sport with Climatronic, parking Sensors and spare wheel on 0% finance with 3 free services.
  4. Chris do you have a link to which ELM widget you purchased?
  5. Just spotted this offer if anybody is in the market for a new Yeti http://www.simpsonsskoda.co.uk/new-car-offers/yeti-april/
  6. Just noticed the SUK configurator now includes "Package Xenon for Style package (right-hand drive)" as a £400 extra. Thought you all might like to know.
  7. You can order it as an accessory from Skodadop, it's a Czech website I think. I have seen them mentioned on a couple over threads in the forum. Works out at about £135 I think with postage, which doesn't seem to bad. http://skodadop.com/en/rapid-/interer-rapid/podlokotnik-skoda-rapid-rapid-spaceback.html
  8. mu7 when you get the trim can you update us all? Dubdee1000, let me know how the one you have ordered goes to. Thanks
  9. Been reading through this thread over the past couple of days, as well as the Yeti thread. I have to say this looks great, can't wait for it to be finished.
  10. Listing on Ebay Germany for that part mu7, looks like it could be the right one, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Skoda-Rapid-Radioblende-2-DIN-Blende-Radio-Rahmen-5JA858415-22030-/151356920530?pt=Einbaurahmen_Radioblenden&hash=item233d9352d2 Picture below.
  11. I really like the look of a black roof on the Sport, found some pictures here https://media.skoda-auto.com/en/_layouts/skoda.prportal/pressrelease.aspx?ID=370 and here http://rapidskoda.cz/novinky/skoda-rapid-sport/
