I'm sorry, I have nothing. The car was still under warranty at the time, work was carried out and returned to me with no paperwork to support it. -

For what its worth, my 2013 Vrs Diesel had a noisy pump from new, took it to my dealer and it was changed without question.

Had my big service yesterday, they used Castrol Edge...

Clips into the surrounding grill, needs a little force

As jjc says, use it for a nippy bit of overtaking, pain in the backside to use it all the time.

Looks ok.

Yep, offered them up, marked position with a dry wipe marker and stuck them on.

What did you do to your Octavia today?

Interior valet today, she smells lovely again. -
No probs, best of luck...

I dont believe they are that costly, might be better to replace.

Think my last one was a Tdi 155? Guy in our villiage has a mint ST220 which I have to say is a belter, I would be happy driving that.

I have owned four Mondys, all older models than the one being discussed. My guess is the latest one won't be too different to its predecessors in as much as it does everything just fine but does nothing brilliantly, good workhorses that leave the driver unfulfilled.

Mine had a cold start issue, she would crank 7 or 8 times before firing. Although I still don't know exactly what was done, my dealer said there was a software update to rectify it, been fine since they did it, that was over three years ago...

A bit of a decision to make.....

Hmm, bad lack for sure. Most water pump failures are just that, don't believe they leak as such, they just stop pumping, the fault is internal. Is your pump cracked? Seems incredible it should dump all its coolant just like that?
