  1. But in the glove box the cd player ect are red, must be audi parts.
  2. What i mean is, having looked at the moldings around the auto gear shift and cigar power point, is, or has some one removed the molded panel work and in what order or can i pull it strait up and out? As the part of the plug is stuck fast in the bottom of the socket and will not come out. Have tried plyers, hocking a wire around it, magnets etc put its stil will not come out. so any helpful ideas please. thanks.
  3. I have got part of a power plug stuck in the front Cigar Light socket..... Can I remove the Cigar Lighter Socket without taking the front of my car? Colin.
  4. Always been on the left hand side (usb & phone jack) as is on my '14 Elegance.
  5. Mine is only when i start on my drive way all of 3ft from the road !!! It all so shows some where, not England, before finding where the car is. Lovely 3D images but crap satnav. Going back to stars and sextent next week.
  6. Hand brake turns anyone love playing about as octavia 111 have manual braking so all goes.

  8. Yes ok have ordered a 'hopfully' good bike maintenance book and do most of the jobs myself, don't mind a bit of spannering anyway. Keep my bike in the hall by front door and have 2, only a £ each, tea trays so that the wheels don't mark the floor.
  9. OK shot down in flames. But still if you phone up a company as big as Evans Cycles you expect to get a competent person at the other end and book a slot as the 6 week service is in the deal when you buy a new toy, yes or yes ?
  10. I've just got a Jamis BosaNova 2015 model touring bike to replace a shag out old bike. A lovely bit of kit. But as a word of warning, got my Jamis from Evans Cycles at Gatwick with a free 6 week health check. So phoned up today to book said check up and was told " just drop it around mate and will look at it some time this week" a WEEK to service a bike is taking the p##s My Octavia only takes 2-3 hrs so staying away from that bunch of monkeys.
  11. A Merry Christmas to one and all from me my Octavia and the rest of my tribe. Colin.
  12. Spend x amount on a brand new car with a VW Climatic system in it and then complain 'cos one LED switches of when its running in auto !!!!! Leave my cars Climatic system in auto all the time and just adjust the temp if needed. Never have a misting up proplems regardless if its only me or 4 persons in the car with wet coats etc. Do have the winter pack so heated screen helps in the mornings, much reconmended.
  13. Sunset glass is a factory fitted option at the point of build. Looks good and sets my silver elegance of a treat.
  14. Could it not be the humid stat, its on the rear view mirror facing the windscreen, keeping your windows from steaming up? The AC only runs up when needed so no need to shut it down, have a look at you energy use and its L per Km for AC will be zero in winter.
