  1. I have a basic fault reader, what are the better ones to have ?
  2. The MFD in my FL vRS shows the speed in kph, how do i change this to show mph ?
  3. My automatic FL vRS has developed a whine/moan once the car is in 6th gear and over 60mph, its intermittent. It's been in the garage and they have checked nothing is loose and they have no idea what it could be ... its getting booked into a VAG specialist for a diagnostic. Any ideas on what it could be ?
  4. I've just had my renewal package through from Chris Knott ... is there a discount for Briskoda members ?
  5. Does anyone have the part number or eBay link for both sides wing mirror glass and heater elements ?
  6. What are the ballpark costs of replacing the springs and dampers on a vRS Pre-FL - Standard oe suspension - Upgraded suspension (eg B12's)
  7. I meant the fog light not the head light ... apologies
  8. I was intending to replace the glass and then they don't appear to heat up
  9. Someone has clipped the drivers side wing on my vRS and left a small scuff and knocked the head light from the bumper ... in terms of re-fixing is this a bumper off job ?
  10. The key has 3 buttons ... however it was more so to be able to release the boot while the key was in the ignition and being in the car
  11. Would it be possible to install a boot release into one of the spare buttons in a 2007 Pre-Fl vRS ?
  12. I'll give that a try so I can see if I can match the sidelight bulbs to the colour of the HID
  13. When I bought my Pre-FL vRS it had HID dipped beam already installed. Is there an easy way to identify what the colour temperature of the HID is ?
  14. I will give it a go ... hopefully goes on nice and easy
  15. I've got one of those fitted but it seems to make the radio reception worse.
  16. I purchased and installed a Skoda Octavia (2004 - 2011) Android 4.4 8" A6703 from Icebox Audio however the radio signal is very poor. Does the Pre-FL vRS require a signal booster ? And if so has anyone installed one with an android head unit which has improved the quality ?
  17. I had a reversing camera installed at the weekend and it would seem that the inner boot trim has not been securely fixed back. How easy is this to re-fix ? There appears to be a number of metal clips, are these easily to replace and re-fit ? Is there any guides on this ?
  18. I've just purchased http://www.iceboxauto.com/skoda-octavia-ii-2007-2009-android-444-m005 and was looking for a compatible reversing camera if anyone is aware or has purchased/installed one ?
  19. Just out of curiosity and to test the costs I have been given, what is the rough cost to replace the clutch, flywheel and bearing on a 2007 Octavia vRS TDi ?
  20. Over the last couple of days it seems more difficult to put the vRS into gear, certainly reverse when the car is cold, once it's warmed up its not a problem. Is this a pre-cursor to anything ?
  21. https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/dark-slide-automotive Anyone used Dark Slide Automotive before ? Dark Slide Automotive Stanley Road Hartlepool TS25 1QP The Deal£79 for a car engine remapping and EGR delete (34% off)
