Hi there, I have some parts from my MK3 Octavia for sale, can't seem to find a way to post in the for sale section, am I missing something ? Cheers

Very tidy wagon mate

Do you have a towbar fitted? Don't see the cabling so probably not. Cheers

Your towbar will fit some Audi's and Seats as well as the Octavia.

Get a price for your car online, it maybe worth more than is owing on it, mine is worth £2k more than settlement figure and it's only 18months old. Cheers

MK3 Hatch:- Front Track:- 1549mm, VRS = 1535mm Rear Track:- 1570mm, VRS = 1506mm MK3 Estate:- Front Track:- 1543mm, VRS = 1535mm Rear Track:- 1514mm, VRS = 1506mm ************ MK3 FL Hatch:- Front Track:- 1549mm, VRS = 1535mm Rear Track:- 1540mm, VRS = 1544mm MK3 FL Estate:- Front Track:- 1549mm, VRS = 1535mm Rear Track:- 1540mm, VRS = 1544mm

Just read another thread about the difference in track width on Pre FL and Facelift models, I've always felt my pre FL handled better than my FL one and the thread made interesting reading, I've copied the info from the thread and will add below but I did a bit of measuring earlier and only found about 10mm of difference between front and rear axle widths with the rear being wider which corresponds with the info from the other thread, what I didn't know was the Pre FL was wider across the front axle compared to the rear similar to the Golf as far as I'm aware. Has anyone added just front wheel spacers to their facelift and how do you feel it affected the cars handling /turning ? I would like to add a small spacer to the front to make the front look similar to the rear. Cheers

It's not a bad price really, if you have tow bar preparation on your car from Skoda when new the job should be a bit cheaper, if not and the fitter needs to fit the dedicated wiring through to your fusebox (£100) then the price is good, there will need to be towing related functions enabled with OBDEleven or VCDS so best to ask him if he is doing this as well. This is going on your 2.0 TDI ? What type of bar are you going for ? Detachable or fixed ? if the price is for a detachable it's pretty good. Cheers

Have you got a mate or maybe someone on here that would do you a wheel swap to try and see if the noise goes away, a lot of people have a spare set of wheels, I have another set of Gemini's for mine in the shed, if you fancy a trip to Scotland . Cheers

Yep found the haldexrepairs website and watched the Volkwizard video, both very helpful, cheers, was wondering really if OBDEleven works ok for the pump prime and the rest after the filter clean and oil change. Cheers

Doesn't seem to be the same set up mate, but thanks anyway. Cheers

Who's cleaned out their Haldex filter and changed their oil, was hoping for a guide and if OBDEleven Pro is enough to carry out the job properly.

Engine running when doing this and no you can't get it to start in S mode as far as I know.

Yep I found that out to my expense, nearly cried for a couple of minutes, turned the car off and on and all was ok but good to know the throttle sorts it as well.lol Cheers

The top image is how I received my car back from Border Skoda in Dumfries when they eventually updated my infotainment software, seemingly I have a Bentley..lol
