Heated Steering Wheel coming in 2017
Petunet replied to foregonereality's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Finally a reason to visit UK again, winter equipment! -
In Finland the Winter package includes Auxiliary heating (Webasto), heated wind screen and heated rear seats. Front seats are heated as standard on all cars. From the manual, page 107: "The auxiliary heating heats the vehicle interior as well as the engine. For heating, fuel is consumed from the fuel tank. The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior with the engine switched off, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun)." If you have auxiliary heating, you should have a button for it in Climatronic and a remote controller. I think the supplementary heating is a electrical heating element (PTC) as mentioned earlier.

I took the rear camera with washer and DCC to mine. And phone box with inductive charger (QI). All the MY17 thingies I could have. No heated steering wheel available though a month ago. -

Nope, I'll warm up the steering wheel manually: https://youtu.be/CztIEhBACeE -

+1 This is a picture from my Seat on a fairly cold morning in February. Would have taken heated steering wheel if possible, luckily my car park is near so I can use the Webasto. -

I'm going to remove all badges, especially the vRS-badge. Do you know if there is a 1.0 badge from the new three cylinder available? :p

Hella Ralley 3003 extra lights

Sorry, I can't seem to find this. Could you link me to the right page? -
Hella Ralley 3003 extra lights
Petunet replied to moffsing's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
So first, I would chance the "side light" to a "main beam". Then I would disable the main beam from the xenons. This way there would be dipped beam only on the xenons and main beam on the auxiliary lights? This is a lot easier on older cars, just unplug main beam bulb and connect auxiliary lights instead. Like in my old car. -

Petunet replied to moffsing's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
This is interesting. Should be an easy way to install auxiliary lights. I'd like to disable the main beam from original xenons altogether and use only multiple auxiliary lights as a main beam. Just to leave the short beam as it is. Would that be possible to code somehow? -
Oct 2015 vRS 230 Rear break discs
Petunet replied to JiffyJoban's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Apparently there's a protective plate to cover drive shaft inner CV joint which wasn't installed. Not quite sure what that is but they've changed the joint boot and installed the cover. -

Kotelosuojaa vai jokin tuulenohjain? I might be able to translate... -
Raising the bottom of the cargo bay on the Combi

Good work! How much was the VBF? I might copy your setup if I can find the part easily...
