I have a 2008 Octavia ambiente 1.9tdi est I have just had my ecu repaired due to being fried have been advised by my mechanic that it could have happened when I was sorting out a problem with the rear lights a bulb had gone out so I changed it for anew one but that didn't work either after changing the bulb 3 times with not effect I put it all back together and it suddenly lit up but the engine would not fire up now the bulb out warning light on the dash is on all the time and all bulbs are working and no errors show up on diagnostics. if anyone has had a similar experience or can tell me why dash warning is always lit I like to hear from you.

Hi I have a Skoda Octavia 1.9tdi 2008 that has a leak on the ABS pump it is leaking where the bowl meets the block can this be repaired as I have been quoted £500 for a new one then I have to get it coded and reprogrammed I have just had to replace the clutch master cylinder and hose at a cost of £170 so if I can get it repaired it will keep the costs down.

Hi Phil thank you for your input followed your advice battery ok, problem now solved turned out to be fuel pump was sucking in to much air as it needed a new seal kit. Regards Phil

Hi my name is Phil can anyone help with an intermittent problem I have with my 2008 1.9tdi Octavia it will be running fine and starting ok then I will stop and park up for a short time and go to start the car but nothing happens the first time it happened 2 days before Christmas diagnostics showed a faulty cam sensor so I had both sensors replaced and has been working fine since, then last night It happened again and the recovery engineer said diagnostics showed no fault so he sprayed brake cleaner into the air intake and after a couple of false starts it started ok and ran without a problem. After parking up overnight I came out this morning and it started first time.
