Front electric (3 memory positions on the drivers seat) and rear half leather / alcantara from a 2001 Seat Toledo in good condition but needing a light clean / valet. Will need a little head scratching to wire them up especially the memory function on the drivers seat £120 collected from near Crewe. Pics uploaded to photobucket but the forum won't allow me to paste them here.......................

6 spokes and TT alloys not S3?

Still here, still the cheapest L&K in the UK today, now SORN with the tax chashed in. Want £1000 for a good reliable estate car that I'd drive to the south of France tomorrow if need be.

Last bump before I start breaking it, the car will be reinsured from the forthcoming weekend as the other halfs car blew its turbo (and damaged the engine in the process) yesterday and she needs transport but wants a smaller car........................ so may part ex + cash for a smaller car - but she has to like it............. :sun:

One of the ball joints on the link rod under the NSF arch was detached on my car, a new rod cost £38 from skoda - its a heath robinson affair attached to the wishbone. HTH

Now £1100 (there's £100 worth of tax on the screen), thats as low as I'm going, will start to break this car after 25th March - I'll be keeping the engine and ancils

51 plate 1.8T L + K Octavia estate with caramel leather / alcantara (heated front seats) Bad bits first, due a service in 600 miles, timing belt due, advisories on the MOT (18 Feb 2013) handbrake needs attention (passed but only just), exhaust bracket broken. The hinge is broken on the centre arm rest, but stays in place until opened. This is a very good car being sold by an honest vendor. The car is insured until 24 March, I'll happily take you on an extended test drive, you can drive providing you bring proof of insurance with you. Standard Equipment - 12V power point in luggage area - 16" L and K dark chrome alloy wheels - 2 speed wipers+variable intermittent wipe - 6 disc CD autochanger - 60/40 split rear seat back - 8 speakers - ABS - Air recirculation control - ASR - Body colour bumpers - Body colour door handles - Body colour electric adjustable heated door mirrors - Bodyside protection mouldings - Boot lamp - Boot storage net - Centre visor - Chrome instrument bezels - Cigarette lighter - Climate control - Cruise control - Cupholder - Dashboard illumination control - Deadlocks - Delay courtesy light function - Digital clock - Driver and passenger airbags - EDL - Electric front+rear windows - Electric fuel filler flap - Electric sunroof - Front centre armrest - Front fog lights - Front reading light - Front side airbags - Glovebox - Grey tint in upper edge of windscreen - Headlight washers + water filling control - Headlights with clear optics - Heated front seats - Height adjustable driver/front passenger seats - Height adjustable front seatbelts - Height adjustable front/rear head restraints - High level third brake light - Immobiliser - Internally adjust headlights - Isofix child seat preparation - Lashing eyelets in boot - Leather gearknob - Lights on warning - Parcel shelf - PAS - Pollen filter - Radio cassette - Rake/reach adjustable steering wheel - Rear ashtray - Rear door child safety locks - Rear foglight - Rear mudflaps - Rear reading lights x 2 - Rear wash/wipe - Remote central locking - Rev counter - Roof mounted aerial - Roof rails - Seatback storage - Seatbelt warning - Side impact protection - Third rear headrest - Three 3 point rear seatbelts - Tinted glass with shade band - Trip computer - Twin reversing lights - Upgraded speaker sound system - Variable boot floor - Visible vehicle identification number - Wood/Chrome trim - Xenon headlights REVO remap by the previous owner, Forge DV Everything works as it should electrically, windows, door locks, interior lights etc. The pictures do flatter the car - it needs to be viewed in the flesh, however I think the car is in good condition for its age (I've viewed far worse!). I bought this for my winter car having sorned our audi convertible for the winter months and its not missed a beat, pulls hard when asked to. I replaced the ARB clamp bushes and the front wishbone rear bushes with genuine Skoda items, the wiper rack has been stripped and lubed and now work as they should, we then did 1200 miles last september around Cornwall and Devon without a hitch. The towbar was fitted by me and remains unused (I may remove it) MOTd til 18 Feb 2013, Taxed til Sept 2012 History I changed the oil and filter when I bought it, the receipts for this and a light levelling rod are with me, the receipt for the previously mentioned bushes is currently missing.......... Two keys. one needs a battery. £1400 - ONO Thanks

It sounds like the pedal has broken where it attaches to the master cylinder under the dash - its a common VAG fault

Unused spare from my 2001 L&K Octavia estate - £99 ono Ebay link There's a tiny blue paint mark / chip on the alloy where someone caught the wheel removing it from the wheel well

Brake light switch has 2 circuits, 4 wires, one switch for brakes lights, the second switch for ecu signal. Faulty switch = no ASR or cruise function (hitting the brake pedal knocks off cruise).

For the sake of £10 I'd put a genuine brake light switch on it - dealers have them on the shelf

Offer withdrawn, good luck with the sale

£1800 any good?

Is there fuel at the injectors?

You could try disconnecting the battery for an hour or so, its been known to work on other VAG cars to good effect. Have you had a flat battery recently?

It takes a mile or two to feel the benefit of the heated seats, by that time the heater is warming and your body is warming the seats for free. Chocolate teapot like the centre armrest IMO Now a heated windscreen, that would be a benefit at the moment.

I have a changer in a toledo I'm breaking (the changer lives in the glovebox), I could include the cable if you want to repair your existing cable?

I'd want to measure current draw at the same time as the voltage drops to see if any consumer is drawing excess currrent at the same time as the voltage drops. Does it do it with the heater blower / aircon turned off on cold start ups? Does the auto tensioner run smoothly? Does it kick / jump when the voltage drops? Does the aircon pulley engage when the voltage drops? Is the main battery to body earth strap in good condition? Connect a good quality jump lead from the engine block to the battery neg and see if this helps.

Maybe the cars rear axle was damaged early in its life (spun into a kerb?) and the whole rear assembly was swapped from a lesser model? If the car has the original alloys are they all dated the same on the back? If you order brake parts via chasis number do they supply solids or vented?

Its inside the lock mechanism

Rather than pulling the fuse unplug the changer itself may give a better result and no risk of radio code issues

You could try pulling the fuse and see what happens when you power up again?

Hi, arrived yesterday (well packed ), not tested but all looks fine
