I'll check it out ill have eibach springs to update from sunday and just ordering a reverse camera from hong kong lol not much else to report as its also getting a tyre and service and costing me a fortune!

I've got a mk2 Pre fl Octavia and was looking into getting a reverse camera for it, anyone got any experience with these cheap Hong Kong ones with fitment and the oem sat nav head unit? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=151514571568&alt=web

I've just gone with Goodyear EfficientGrip from TyreLEader at £78:99 each

2008 TDI vRS in Black Magic, Sat Nav Parrot Bluetooth Broadway mirror Xenon's 18" Zenith wheels in Anthracite Bought the car beginning of this month, had it on a laptop and the rollers just to check it all out. got it booked in for a service with all the filters and oil change to do. I'm new to Skoda's and only really owned/modified Honda's so will probably need a lot of help haha! Current Mods- Quantum Tuning DPF Delete and Blue map 189.3 bhp 333 ft-lb Torque Future Plans - (in order) Reverse Camera Rear Tints Springs RARB Backbox delete Stage 1 remap Grill either colour coded or wrapped Badge change.

So i got my car on the rollers to check out if Quantum Tuning did put the part economy/part performance map and it looks like they have! (189.3hp / 333 lb-ft torque) It's due a service though which is booked in this Sunday for air/fuel/oil filter and oil change also getting a new tyre, reverse camera and some rear tints this month then the next direction will be RARB and springs then Stage 1

Just spoke to Quantum Tuning and its had a "Partial" dpf delete i.e drilled and then a "Blue Map" put on which is a cross between power/mpg/dpf this was in may 2013 and said with the light coming on i may have to add a lambda sensor? he didn't exactly inspire confidence on the phone call like.

pictures were rubbish so took some new ones today

Is their any How To's on the Rarb or is it simply a case of direct bolt on? and any links to any for sale please?

Just visited Nathan Reid as he is only 15 minutes down the road and had the laptop plugged in, give it a full check over and the dpf has been removed but things they have done mapped it out wrong, he did a few things and sorted it out now. While he was there he went through the full lot and checked it all out for bumps/ attempted thefts/ blow outs/ seat belts etc etc and all came back clear and checked out the injectors / turbo etc and said it seems to be running healthy and i found out it needs a service in 100 miles lol. ive done 230 miles in the last two days in it and it's clearing up and improving all the time, still not sure if it was purely a dpf delete map or a performance map as well but im going to ring Quantum Tuning tomorrow and see if they have kept a record. oh and it recommends a service in 100 miles, works out about 5k since last service.

cheers mike much appreciated! does it show stuff thats flashed up and gone or is it only if the fault is still there?

ah well if im going by the last owner of this car i wouldn't recommend them! you got a price of them? wouldn't mind know how much its going to set me back

Thanks for the reply! Yeah I think it will be best to get the guts checked before checking the map out, the guy said it was done at Ridgways by Steve in Rotherham, Just checked out Ridgways and its a part of "The Quantum tuning group" not sure if they have good rep or not.

Hello I'm new to the TDI vRS with only purchasing one yesterday and have a "few" questions if anyone could help please, I am from Redcar in the north east next to Middlesbrough. My DPF light came on, on the way home after about 30 minutes of motorway driving, the previous owner said it had been drilled and remapped? not sure what he ment by drilled. Anyone know any prices for a reputable company local to me to get the DPF removed and mapped? Also I've come from a modified insurance so my insurance is void if i don't modify the car within 14 days which I'm not really happy about but it could do with some springs anyhow, not sure on the drop though would really need some reference's if anybody has a picture they could post with the drop please? on my previous cars I've had Eibach 30mm and h&r 35mm so was happy to see them available or would people suggest any others? Next is the cat back or Stainless exhaust system, what would people suggest? i don't exactly want to spend close to £500 when it will be coming off in November and the standard putting back on, i know i seen someone suggest A.A.S in Newcastle for a custom exhaust but not sure how much that would cost. My grill is chrome and wanted to colour code it so ill be on the lookout for a spare grill so i could get it sprayed and want a smaller aerial! Thanks in advance for any help, info and advice! :peek: =]

Hello, Just picked my car up yesterday and will probably need some help! anyone else from the north east? I'm from Redcar (Middlesbrough), anyway here is some pictures and the plans i have are, Sort dpf problem out, lowering springs, slight tint on the rear windows and hopefully find an exhaust! (i've crossed over from a modified car insurance and must have my car modified within 14 days or my insurance is void )
