I best check out the other half's as hers can be heard but no water coming out. She hasn't let me know of water showing inside but she's not likely to! We've had the car for around 14 months and its never worked but would be good to get this working.

Wow, what a change that is! I do see the logic to it though. I have always found what i need here on Briskoda so wont close my account, particularly as there is still a MKii Octy in the family but also just for the general helpful advice and giggles! I Will check out the MBClub, see what its like, thanks!

Does anyone know anything about the Merc forums?

This isn't a full on goodbye as my other half still has a MK2 Octavia but I am no longer a Skoda owner.... I have recently acquired a brand new E-Class estate and enjoying it so far! I am just wondering if people could steer me in an equally useful direction to a Mercedes owners forum as Briskoda has been for me here?

And its also handy place to keep a card safe and secure should you need one unexpectedly!

I too have had this, twice now and completely out of the blue!

I'd very much agree with this. I have had a few 'spirited' times I've pulled away from the lights in varying degrees of dry to damp and absolutely no issues whatsoever.

I did but cant remember now after nearly 4 years! Just reminds me to use plastic tipped tools in future.

Good afternoon all, looking for a second Skoda for the other half tomorrow and found a lovely 2009 MKii, 1.4 TFSi with 45000 honest miles, no advisories on MOT's etc. Is there anything i should pay particular attention to when viewing and test driving the vehicle?

I too had this but now fixed through the delete and re-pair but i have lost the 'Text Message' section along the bottom of the Phone screen. Any ideas?

Thanks @Kenny R for the steer in the right direction.

Having updated the Columbia head unit a few weeks ago, it has started to ask for a PIN, I presumed this is for my phones to connect? having put in my passcode for the phone, the screen just hangs with a ‘please wait’ at the top and the only way I can then use the unit is to turn it off and back on again. Any ideas?

I'll will also be trying this out tonight as i have just grabbed the spare key and that appears to be completely flat. Off to France on Sunday so i thought it would be a good idea to take the spare, just hope the new battery will sort it out!

This is the second time I’ve had the wing mirror indicator lens broken due to a stone smashing through it!! I assume this is just pure bad luck I’ve had this twice in the last year or so now or are these prone to damage?

I have changed mine before with no issues but maybe there is another link/sync issue... How long was the battery out of the key?
