could this be the reason for the leak, when I took it off the insulation plastic was wet can I repair it with a rubber sealant maybe? any ideas?

automatic transmission fluid
greeneinar replied to greeneinar's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
well I´m just wondering if It´s alright to skip it since I´m going to sell the car -
hello there I own a skoda octavia mk1 year 2003 with automatic transmission I bought it in 2010 and since then I´ve driven 75.000 km and I have never changed the automatic transmission fluid should I change it or should I just let the next owner do it since I´m trying to sell it? They say it costs about 140$ where I live and I only get about 3.300$ for the car best regards from Iceland

hello I found out where the leak is coming from in the boot of my 2003 skoda octavia mk1 hatchback do I maybe have to take off the rear light or the bumper to see what is happening? cause it´s coming from a place I can´t get near from inside

only key locked inside my skoda cotavia mk1
greeneinar replied to greeneinar's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
ok the locking event happened in this order: 1. I pushed on the open car button on the key remote 2. all doors got unlocked 3. then I just opened the passenger side front door and put the keys on the chair. 4. then I closed the passenger side front door 5. and then it autolocked and I couldn´t get in so do you think I can open the door on the passenger side? would that be deadlocked also? -

I have managed to put a long wire with plastic strap in front on the inside handle on the drivers front door, but when I pull out the handle, nothing happens?? why??? it only locked itself when I closed the door!! so it shouldn´t be deadlocked -
hello there I managed to forget my only spare key on the passenger seat in my skoda octavia mk1 ambiente and then when I closed the door it auto locked the vehicle so I can´t get in do you guys have any ideas how to get in the car without breaking a window? I´ve heard about some boot entry with some tools you can use? it´s 2003 model.

well I talked to a guy here in iceland who is working for a windscreen company and he told me to start to try add a PUR on the inside. He said they do It themselves. I wen´t with the car there and they looked at it and saw that it had had a new windscreen fit on it maybe 6 years ago. And the reason for the leaking is that the PUR is getting loose from the glass, so I bought some PUR from them and am going to try to add it from the inside. I also got a cleaner and a primer with the PUR. The guy told me to cut off the PUR where there is a leak and add the PUR there and also add PUR all the way across the screen. Will I need to use this cleaner and primer product also or are they only added to the windscreen? the products are: dinitrol 520 and 530 and the PUR is dinitrol 501FC
