How easy is it to change the front discs and pads on the VRS 2013? Considering doing it myself (mechanically competent) but want to suss it out first. Steve.

This is all great stuff people, Question is can it be fixed? Dealer says that unless the computer finds it as a fault code then there is "nothing for it TO fix". Mmm....... :wonder:
-
Same sort of conditions?
-
Yup, Gotta keep a log of it and submit it to dealer show conditions when its happening but they keep reverting back to the computer to see if it's a switch thing.

I seem to have an issue where under certain conditions the car "hiccups" and then picks up again. Sent it into dealers and they can't find any faults with it on computer but I know its there as it happens regularly. Always around the 1500rpm range, usually with light pressure and acceleration. Feels like the signal from pedal box is broken or turbo lag type cut out. Any thoughts?
-
I get this regular as clockwork. Referring to dealership as they think it may be a pedal box issue?

Black pack Gloss rear window trim
6xsteve replied to 6xsteve's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
That's what i'm afraid of, creating more work. It's not even finger nail depth although i've prepared myself for buying a new section to be fitted so i may as well have a go after my trip to Dartmouth tomorrow. I may need to polish out a few more stone chips/scratches by then! Cheers for the info! -

Ah ha! cheers! Not yet, just noticed it at lunch break in the car park. Would a fine paste or clay do the job? -
Can the window trim on the "Black pack" kit be replaced? I seem to have incurred a vertical scratch on mine behind the rear side window and interested to know if i can swap it out for a new one?

I know what you mean. I refer back to my post #74. Weeks with no communication and then they called the day after the car had arrived to ask when I can pick it up!!!! It's friday for mine now. It'll all be worth it in the end...... -

To be honest i'm not sure but from other threads on here people have suggested the lane assist and and AFS light assist may get dropped off. I can't see it somehow and just the optional extras (if anything) will be changed. You get the car that you paid for and all new orders from March 1st will probably be restricted on their options. I'll update tommorrow once I pick mine up! -
