Go for the aux heater, I have it on the RS Tdi it's just fine to get in a pre heated car, also the durability from the engine will better as the wear is less for a heated engine. It is a Webato heater. Only the interface to program is bad, you have to activate EVERY day for the next day shame on you VAG???

Detachable tow bar Octavia 3 Combi
blokart replied to ExpatHotspur's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
On my vRS the towbar from bumper to end of the protection cap 10,5cm Towbar is easy to remove, RTFM link to the manual http://new.skoda-auto.com/en/mini-apps/owners-manuals/octavia -
If you have the ACC and remove the bumper the ACC radar needs to be recalibrated, maybe think to Plastidip the grill.

Nice try, but too big on my oppinion. Will try to make a bigger picture of my wing badge I like the Pictoris wheels with the black paint, nice.

blokart replied to CrapCastle's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Seats are only seating and back area nomore and quality is not as high as VW but it's not the same price, i'm a little disapointed about the quality Pocket no leather. -

vRS dummy exhaust outlet question
blokart replied to h3srr's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
They came off easily just some narrow space to release the 4 bolts from the end tip. -
Leave the key in the car while washing or far enough outside the car.

vRS dummy exhaust outlet question
blokart replied to h3srr's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
The exhaust ends are stainless steel (not magnetic) I plastidipped the ends, no problem with the heat for 3 months now. -
If you succeed to retrofit the ACC you need the dealer as the radar must be calibrated, most Skoda dealers don't invest (not mandatory for Skoda well for VW) in the equipment, mostly done by a VW dealer, here in B the ACC is standard on the G7 from the level confortline.
-
Now I have the standard, but bad experience with some chinese brands, it was deformed by the heat and the demanded power was not above specs.

Is it worth getting Adaptive Cruise Control?
blokart replied to IHughes's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Go for the ACC but only with the DSG not worth with the manual gear box. Be aware as cars who are halted befor the radar can detect (within the range) the car will not be detected by the radar only cars on the move within the detection range are detected. The first days I tought it would detect a halted car on the traffic lights but nope I got the three options and go for it, the parkassist will be very helpfull for parking on the left side as we on the continent are not used to park that way. -
If you go for the ACC option it's a must to take the DSG, I'm pleased with both on my vRS
