I have been googling and searching the last week or so looking for any information on converting a mk2 Octavia to 4x4. I know that S3 8P running gear will be needed but I am trying to find out if anyone has actually looked underneath the car and compared the mounting points, fuel tank, access for the prop shaft etc. I have emailed carworks in Greece as they have already made one and I am waiting for a reply. Any information anyone can provide would be much appreciated. Ps I have no interest in changing my car for an S3/golf r I love my Octavia and will be keeping it for a long time hence looking at going down the 4x4 route. Plus I don't think anyone in the uk has built one yet.

How much to post it?

Is it easy enough to do using vcds? I can get hold of it from a friend. Thanks

I have done a quick search but not been able to find anything. My steering control module failed a few weeks ago disabling my horn and throwing an air bag light on. I have just replace the old unit 5K0-953-569C with a brand new dealer supplied unit 5K0-953-569-AL my horn works and the air bag light is off but now I don't have cruise control. SKODA have said they would need to diagnose it for around £45 per half an hour to see what the issue is. Does anyone know if the CC needs to be recoded on to the new steering module? If so how do I do it, I have access to vcds via a friend. Any help is much appreciated as I am off the Nurburgring end of next week and would like CC for the drive there and back

Am in Walton 11 plate white octavia vrs no briskoda sticker as am not a full member and don't like stickers in my windows lol

Just thought I would say hello. On Friday I picked up my 2011 octavia vrs in white. It came with some silly stickers on the doors and vrs stickers down the door. If anyone is familiar with the car I am interested to know the history of it. The reg is BF11 SOH.
