Oil usage Octy VRS (65 Plate)

Ah yes, type of fuel that may have been of help. Its a Diesel, Im on variable as I think mine is on above average miles (28k) I normally have to put a good couple of litres in it at least twice between services. If thats normal thats fine, I just wondered. -
Hi, Apologies if the is in the wrong place but, I have got some number plate surrounds to go on my Octavia VRS, my current plates are stuck on with adhesive fixings, before I rip those off can anyone please confirm whether Skodas already have the screw holes on the front and rear?(To secure the plate holders with.) I'd hate to pull them off and then find out I need to start drilling the car (Which I'd probably mess up) Many thanks.

Hi, Having driven for 30 years and having owned a few cars in that time, I find that my VRS requires frequent oil top ups between servicings, with all the cars I've had previously this is the first time Ive encountered this, is this normal for a VRS? I do mainly motorway miles.

Stupid question of the week from me (again) I have just bought a set of the VRS motorsport ones, having looked at the plate I see its stuck on with sticky patches, are the screw holes pre drilled on the front and rear or do I need to get a ton of new sticky patches to hold the surround in place? I appreciate that I could just go and pull the old number plates off to check but I'm bereft of sticky bits at the moment. Thanks as always. -
Does anybody know of any way to change the Traffic Management thingy in the Nav? Was driving to work today when the info it was giving me was clearly rubbish, at one point both the M6 and M5 were closed. I decided to give it a damn good ignoring as there were no warning signs on the motorway. I have to be honest the thought of arriving at work at 2350hrs was a little worrying, especially as I had left for work at 0530!

VRS Estate - Eco Mode
rsthiswayup replied to johnnyblueboy45's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
ECO???? Why buy a VRS and switch it to ECO???? Isn't that like going to Maccie D's and ordering a Large Big Mac meal and a diet coke?? -

What about the things that annoy you?

This never bothered me until I saw this message, now it annoys the b'jesus out of me. The grill design sends streaks up your bonnet (not code!) in the wet and leaves snail trails once it dries. -
No traffic updates on Columbus

Cancel that, I guess the car didn't fancy the trip after the Easter break either. Was having iPod issues as well, all working again now. -
