I'm with you, ordered mine late July. Was told EOY. Then got an update for a Jan build date & y'day got told build week slipped to Mid Feb now. What can you do eh... But it's a bit of a lottery depending on the spec you ordered it seems/semi conductors required for your car.

Hi all, Can anyone point me to the local people near me SO31 - Southampton/Fareham (I'm in Locks Heath), or a link to a map of users who have VCDS as I have a problem and I need someone to help me triage an alarm issue. Just looking for some trouble shooting help. Regards, Mark

Hi, no I didn't have to sign a waiver or anything like that but my order form says the same (31/12/2021). The dealer was open about being realistic it could slip into 2022. It is what it is, can't do anything about it....

Just ordered (the very popular) Race Blue 60 Suite model with a fair few extra bits, not gone mad though. Delivery date of 31/12/21. Seems about right looking at others lead times. My last Octavia took 5 months so I'm cool with that.

Thank you Gizmo68, anyone for any more advise is welcome? -
Hi all, I wouldn't mind increasing from (the default) 3 upto 5 flashes when using the lane changing indicator on the stalk. I have a friend (with VCDS) doing some other work on my car later this week & thought it might be handy to get it changed then. Can anyone point me in the right direction for finding this section in VCDS & even advising what to change it to also to help us out? Regards Mark

Blue waffle. MK2 Octavia vRS Track car. Breaking
HWMBO - Mark replied to Turbobell's topic in Breaking cars
How about a clock spring, do you have that available (sits behind steering wheel)? If so what is the part no on it & how miles on the car before u decided to break it up? -
Hi all, I just had my 2nd service at 49,000 & the dealer has said the 3rd is due in 1 year or 10,000 miles. Is this correct for a CR 2001 vRS? I though it might be longer that's all. I do around 9000 -10000 a year. I have a service plan from when I bought the car but I just want to check it's correct as I thought it might be 2 years or more miles? Thanks in advance Mark

Found out it was the rarb - too dry. Garage stripped it off & applied lube/grease. All good now. Sent from my OnePlus One -
