Thanks erindad very helpful. Why did u have to replace the 4 bolts tough? Iv use of a lift so should make it easier too.

My aircon has stopped working,only noticed a few days ago in the warm weather,my car is out of warranty since April 18th,I'm hoping it's not the pump as the car has only 20k miles done. I do see a small stone damage hole in the condenser so this must be why. When I activate the ac it kicks in but not cold,I also hear a fairly load hissing noise from behind the vents,is this a sign of low gas? Anyway my main question is how much stripping is there to replace the condenser? Or has anyone done one,I'm a mechanic by trade but never done much work on these yet. Also I'm hoping it can be repaired rather than having to buy a new one. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know is the condensor a big job to fit on a 2012 Vrs tdi?

Mines just stopped working,just found a small stone in it,when i turn on the ac I'm getting a hissing noise inside the car,anyone else have this?

Looks great. One thing that bugs me though with the mklll. Why is the ride height so high?

Don't put beans in ur car

That's an awfull thing to happen. Hope u get it sorted soon.

There's a lot of Vrs jealousy on here I think,elegance is a nice car but the Vrs just stands out on its own. End of story. And the 184bhp is a lot more than the 150. There a few lads on here could not wait for the Vrs and bought an elegance that are kicking themselves I'd say. I'd find it very have to go back to a basic style octavia. Just put one beside the other and there's no comparison.

It's quiet normal. And anyone above with a mkll it's also on them all just not as noticeable. It's actually quiet bad on bmws. Personally the mklll white Vrs i looked at was not great as in tiny bits of dust under the paint on the bonnet and roof. I'm very anal about paint work so it takes a trained eye to see it.

U should have just bought a Vrs. That's where it's all happening

I think a leather is a tad better in the mkll.

The material in the non leather seats looks as bad and baggy too. The mklll vrs seats look really cheap quality although they are comfy

So does anyone miss there mkll vrs yet lol

Not the best engine to be honest. Give emissions issues too.
