My Skoda is much better than my last car (a Peugeot 508) but both are (were) caught out at one particular spot where a single lane changed into two. Didn't pull everytime but when It did it was quiet violent.

Agree, Indicating is a lost art in Australia. On a good ,well marked road lane assist is fine. Unfortunately good,well marked roads are like hens teeth where I live.

Recently had a tyre ruined by a screw. Took then oportunity to get rid of at least two of the awful Potenzas. No Michelin Pilots in Australia anyware at that time so went for some Pirelli Zero PZ4's. Car is much quieter now but even better the steering is much more accurate with much more feel. Can't wait for the other two to go but wait I will.Tyres are so expensive in Australia these days.

G'day mate. I have 127cm wingbars on my Occy. Rear bar is 920mm between clamps, front 970mm between clamps. Hope this helps.

Thanks all. Really helpful.

I wish the gear change indicator was larger

Thanks for the replies.Not overly impressed with the space saver supplied.Was hoping to have a tyre with the same diameter (if it fits in the wheel well) Doesn't need to be quite as wide as my road tyres.

Hi guys. Wondering if anyone knows what is the minimum size wheel that wil fit on a 2022 VRS and clear the calipers. Am thinking about trying to put a real spare tyre together.

Thanks mate

Hi guys. After some info. Curbed my alloys. 2022 Octavia RS. Wheels 19" Altair in anthracite. I'm trying to find the paint code. I think it's HA7 or LHA7 . Can anyone confirm this? Thanks

Joy. I finally sat down with my OBDeleven and turned off lane assist. Life is good.

Hi. Rear thrust angle needs to be set first on the RS, then the front can be adjusted. My 19" wheels caused trouble (had to find an aligner who used three arm or four arm sensors-I forget which one)

Tried that, tried everything. no luck. Then a couple of days later it started working. Technology- bah

Hi , Anyone else having bluetooth connection problems with their Android phone. Specifically a Pixel 7. For the last couple of days mines been taking about 10 minutes to connect ,if it connects at all.

Hi mate. My 2022 RS is averaging about 7l/100km. Got 12000km's on it. Runs mainly on 95RON. Best I've got so far was 6.2km/100km's. Hope this helps.

Hi, Paddle shift extensions Soundproofing in boot and under back seat OBDII to silence fake engine noise

Good move.

Agree, have the same the same tyres on my car. Harsh ,noisy. can't wait to change them.

I'm with Southern Comfort on this one. Had two glitches where the screen froze but was fine on restart. Skoda connectivity (SOS, etc ) seems pretty well non existent in Australia. Maybe that's the reason our systems are a bit more reliable. Just thinking.

Had my petrol RS (only sort we can get in Oz) for just on a year now .Observations electronics mostly stable (entertainment system freaked out twice. Was fine on restart) ride ,handling and comfort fine (though supplied Bridgestone tyres are pretty harsh and noisy) not impressed by fake engine noise (sorted out with OBD11) bought some alloy gear change paddle extensions (really made the car much more fun) really dumb controls for sunroof (touch control slider is not great) Overall I really like this car

Hi , My 2022 RS came with Bridgestone Potenza S005. Truly awful. Coarse, noisy and unrefined. Could accept it if they handled well, but they don't. Michelin PS4 or 5 for sure next time.

Thanks, Bought them,work well.

Hi Guys. Just wondering if anyone knows which aftermarket shift paddle extensions fit the Mk4? Coming from a 508 Peugeot which had fixed (to the steering column) paddle shifts I find all wheel mounted paddles hard to use. Extensions might help.

One click apps. I bought it direct rather than through the local Australian crooks. A fifth of the price!

Finally received my OBDeleven dongle today. After a moderate 3 hours of mucking around I got it going.Pretty typical of most things today. However it was totally worth it. Fake engine noise is gone. Bliss.
