70 Plate Octavia How can I switch from MPH to KMPH
You can also change it from Skoda Connect. On the Web: Log in, go to Profile, Settings, Units. There are three options: Units, Imperial (UK), Personal. I have never tried but you could. Good luck! On the smartphone: Log in, go Settings, Units. You will see the same three options as above mentioned.

In May 2022, after I did the two-year inspection, they told me we would see each other in May 2024. I asked, don't we change the brake fluid after 3 years? No!

Should I buy a MkIV?
I am very happy with my Octavia IV 1.5 TSI. The only issues were some software issues which were solved with updates. I agree that perfection means no issue but I believe there is no perfect car. So, buy it!

Skoda 1.5 TSI ACT
I would not consider this a real issue. Actually, if you wait approx. 1 min. (depending on the outdoor temperature) until the tahometer goes below 1000 rot/min. there will be no kangaroo effect.

Go to the owner manual (page 126, but there are three manual versions depending on the production period), title "Economical Driving Style". Read about "Consumption-friendly driving" and check if applies to your model.

Radiator Blinds
What about the “radiator blinds”? Could anyone confirm they do exist? In the owner manual (page 146) is written that “the radiator blinds reduce polluting emissions and CO2 emissions and save fuel” and “If the display of the instrument cluster shows a message relating to the function restriction of the blinds, the maximum speed of the vehicle is limited to 160 km/h. The cause may be ice or snow in the area around the blinds. After the ice or snow has thawed, the blinds are functional again”.
