Its under warrenty, give it to the dealer and tell them not to give it back until its fixed!

I hate it when people have stupidly bright blinding lights. It may not be the "right" thing to do but if I can't see because of them I usually put on my full beam and that, quite quickly, makes them switch to side lights until they pass me...

Tell me about it!! Its quite awful really, unsure if its best on LO or HI... LO seems to activate the AC which *seems* to make it clear quicker... The alternative is to keep a demister pad handy but due to the amount of condensation they usually end up soaking wet and causing dried streak/water marks! What to do what to do....

Hi All, I've got a slight problem when I use super unleaded 97 or 99 ron in my Octavia VRS MK1. Basically for some very odd reason the boost only goes to 5 PSI rather than the usual 20 PSI..... anyone know what this could be? Not too much of an issue though as i'll just stick to using 95 ron, would be nice to have the super option though!!! Thanks

Silly question but H4 or H7's for the Octavia MK1 ?

No one knows which ones are required on the Octy then? :(

So.... does anyone know which ones are required for the Octavia MK1 ?

It's a very hard choice though Chris :P I dont really like the older shaped Leon's, love the new ones but my budget of 7k doesnt quite hit the mark for the new ones! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled on autotrader I think...

I'll be honest I hadnt poked around enough and realised they had the Octavia with the 1.9 TDI PD130 engine! Having a look around on autotrader now at them! Thanks for that :]

Hello All :P Brilliant forum you have here, lots of useful info! I'm after some opinions on the following cars: VW Passat SE/Sport 1.9TDI 130 Fabia vRS 1.9TDI 130 Octavia vRS 1.8T 180 I'm 22 and most of the time its just myself and the girlfriend in the car. I travel 25~ miles to work each day and 25 miles back again. I travel 100 miles to London every other weekend and drive 500 miles to Scotland once/twice a year. I'm basically stuck on deciding which car to get!! Obviously the Fabia is quite a small car, from what I can see though i'd easily get 2 suitcases in the boot without putting the seats down. On the Fabia front though what is it like on long journeys as mentioned above? I *think* I may rule out the Octavia as it would not return anywhere near as good MPG as the Fabia & Passat. Any suggestions/advice is warmly welcomed!! Thanks in advance, Aaron.
