I know this is going back a bit but only just caught up with your logs. At what mileage did your 1st service come up. My service indicator has gone a bit mental and the dealer said they'd address it at the service!!..........they said book in around 18K ....which ties in with my old A4 Thanks

I had this on my diesel VRS and the dealer said it doesn't need anything other than adjusting the computer to variable service schedule. They said it shouldn't require anything service wise until approx 15 to 18k Mine is 5 months old and showing about 9500 miles and i do around 24k to 25k a year

Skoda - Why did you buy one?
badger1340 replied to Wakey's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
the fact that EVO magazine had one as a long term test and loved it ...and the fact its was the biggest part of £10k cheaper than a similar spec A4 Avant Nearly 3 months in and loving my VRS estate with plenty of options -
All the best Derek loads of luck & best wishes with your health

Post your Mk3 Octavia photos!

Took the picture in a hurry (its a big yellow storage facility and the security gate guy was getting a bit heavy with me!!!!.......customer relations wasn't his strong point ha ha) and didn't notice the Focus until i'd got back I've got another quieter location in mind so hopefully no Ford Focus reflection -
same as mine which is 3 weeks old today ......enjoy As a side note mine had the incorrect pedals (not the vRS stainless type) but this is being sorted on Friday this week I'm sure you'll both love the car

18"s Vs. 19"s - how much difference really?
badger1340 replied to Item's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I had 19's on my Audi A4 Black Edition and it was a HARSH ride so debated long and hard over 19's for my new vRS......still went with them though ha ha and in all fairness its loads smoother & quieter Could be tyres could be suspension but certainly easier to live with -

Octavia III Vrs: Auto vs Manual
badger1340 replied to BlueDiesel's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
i'm 2 weeks into DSG on a Diesel vRS Estate and very impressed so far. The torque of the engine just does everything and kick down works well. I wouldn't go back to manual.......the first time you get stuck in traffic will make you think the same -
i turn my stop start off it just gets annoying........loving the car though clicked over 1000 miles yesterday and its 2 weeks old tomorrow

Do MY16 cars have a CD Player
badger1340 replied to eeperman's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
100% agree the glove box is just too small with the media box built in and only for SD slots i won't use ..........i'll go ipod via the USB which could also have been hidden away.........hmmm perhaps in that glove box thingy where the SD slot machine goes -
Skoda Octavia 3 Owners register
badger1340 replied to stokey's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
My Quartz Grey vRS DSG Estate with plenty of added extras was delivered today (leased company car) All good apart from not having the vRS stainless pedals, but i'm sure that can get sorted in the future Just need to suss out how everything works now -
Sorry to drag up an old post but i've just had a leased vRS DSG delivered with plain pedals and the lease company says that is correct, but i'm sure it isn't should they be metal with inserts As it happens the brake pedal has nothing fitted and the dealers said they will post out a rubber..... which is fine but i think they should be the metal pedals Perhaps a call to my local dealers and a fix under warranty
