I had something similar happen with my garmin GPS running watch in January - it tracked my running but everything was offset about 200 metres to the west. Turned out to be a global issue caused by an expired certificate of some sort - they pushed a fix - turned out to be the sony GPS chipset that was the common fault (rather than Garmin software) It would be interesting to see if any other users had a similar error

Item now sold

Yes they are

Hi Just your own normal bolts from your car are fine. No special ones needed. I used the original Skoda bolts no probs

Hey, my profile says Motherwell so central Scotland. If you're in Derbyshire, that's maybe a bit far.

Skoda / VW / Audi Octavia Mk3 winter wheels x 4 Audi RS4 replica wheel design. 18 inch x 8J ET42 These are supplied with the spigot rings to make these centre bore 57.1 so plug and play for your octavia. I ran these on my Mk3 vRS but have now sold it and jumped to Suzuki so no longer of any use to me (Can also be 66.6 centre bore without spigot rings to run on many audis etc) OF course will also fit many other VW / Skoda / Seat cars but double check before buying. Matched with Nokian WR D4 tyres 225/40 R18 92V XL These are great tyres and regularly feature in top 10 winter tyre tests e.g. auto express. As you can see from photos they have 6-7mm tread left and have only done a few thousand miles. The tyres alone new are around £100 each I bought these to maintain the look of the vRS over the winter without resorting to smaller alloy sizes or steel wheels. The wheels are not show perfect, but that was the point of running them through winter so my OEM wheels were preserved. As such, one alloy is mildly kerbed. All alloys have some small salt pit marks and some “white worm” marks. These can be seen close up but not from a few yards away. There is no structural damage. See pictures for details. The centre caps were a cheap ebay purchase and are corroded but come with the wheels anyway. Easily replaced for a few quid. Asking price £425. Pick up only: I won’t courier so please don’t ask. Could perhaps meet half way if buyer is within a reasonable distance.

No. We're still using candles up here.

Happened in wife's 2014 Seat Alhambra too. It'll be exactly the same part I'd wager. Needed new actuator.

Red, Black Roof, Beats sound system, Cruise and park pack. 5 door so it's not a total pain for occasional children carrying, though it's mainly for me. We've got an Alhambra for family duties. It was actually having the 60 PS Citigo as a courtesy car that made me realise just how anodyne some modern cars have become and lacking in chuckabiity. Wanted to get rid of vRS Octavia diesel as my mileage has dropped from 22k to 5 k a year with new job, so don't need and want to avoid any future DPF issues. Shame, if my Skoda was petrol 4wd, it would be perfect. Well specced but circumstances have changed.

My Up GTI order is a 16 week lead time, which actually suits me as that will be bang on my VT point for my 4x4 vRS.

Si

If you type larger still, someone might get back to you

I've just put a deposit down on one of these!

Get your fingers underneath the trim just in front of gear stick where the little hatch can be closed. Pull, hard, but carefully

Thanks, that's been helpful. I've found a whispbar set which have the same "smartfeet" part number for both alhambra and octavia, and then if I buy the 135cm bars (instead of 120cm), it'll be big enough to fit across both cars. Cheers!
