barn find felicia pickup.

hmm some progress perhaps, not finalised, it needs the bits and bobs greasing, but i THINK those springs are all in the right places more or less.

Brake pedal soft but brakes fine. Doesn't pump up, no fluid leak - air in system or master cylinder problem?

OK, that's good to know, thanks. I suppose it is difficult to know how the air bubbles will behave. I always assumed they just moved linearly as you bled it but I suppose it is more complicated than that.

Thanks. I would take you up on that offer though I think I'd be cutting it a bit fine now (I know I should check for replies more frequently) as the MOT is 8AM tomorrow. I've also only just checked the VCDS owners map, and there are people a lot closer to me that I should maybe ask. Thank you for the offer. Fingers crossed it passes the MOT. Even if it does I still need to sort this out so I will probably need to organise trying this with someone. If the master cylinder does need to be changed, do you think it is possible to do that without having to do the computerised bleed all over again?

You're right. Without understanding the ABS unit inside out it is impossible to know what is going on exactly. I have tried pushing hard with the engine off but not in a while. I'm fairly certain it was quite hard though so maybe it is air. But I don't know if there is some kind of threshold of pressure that is needed to make the seals blow by. I suppose if I can get someone to do a bleed without me having to buy a VCDS license, I might as well try that and then move on to the master cylinder if that doesn't help. Is it a sure thing that bleeding it without the block ruins the seals?

the truth about electric cars

So more articles on fuel and China banning exports and then Car Dealer magazine on the rush to buy ev,s but dealers not wanting trade in ice,s. Maybe so. Lots and lots of Chinese manufactured and owned EV,s in the UK ready and at sea on there way here. Win win, every cloud a silver lining for China thanks to the POTUS.

Driver's Door Electrics

Yep. I'd agree, my 2014 had some issues with the locking, found several broken wires and wires with insulation cracked.
DIY repair if you are comfortable messing about with wires/soldering etc.
I suspect the passenger door and boot lid going the same way unfortunately...age, repeated bending/stretching and material quality all an issue here.

Amazed Skoda has become so BAD..

Mine is a 25 & has no over-revving, except when using engine braking to keep the ACC on the limit when going down hill.

If the demonstrator does it as well then maybe whoever uses it at the dealership has a leaden right foot. As I said previously, try a reset of the DSG.
