Rejecting My IV
I'm really glad I didn't go for a new kodiaq! decided I didn't like the layout of the new dash so saved myself some £££ and picked up a facelift 2021 L&K instead. She's perfect, no errors, no issues, does exactly what it says on the tin. My last kodiaq (2018 Scout) was also near on perfect but when it comes time to change the current Kodiaq I may be looking elsewhere outside of VAG for it's replacement.

Service Plan - All in ... good value?
ah ha ! so that's what it is. I noticed in the hand book some changes that were written in and also a dealer stamp on one of the pages. Just took delivery of the car this afternoon and purchased the all-in pack too

Thanks everyone. I'll purchase the service plan and get the hadlex serviced in the next couple of weeks just to be on the safe side.

How can I tell if my car has a DQ381?

Service Plan - All in ... good value?
I purchased the car on Saturday and yes it's a 2021 plate. The dealer is just organising delivery over the next couple of days. I have a copy of the service record which reads: Oil change service @ 14534 miles on 22/12/2022 Inspection with Oil Change @ 20923 on 12/12/2023 O6F8 completed at 20923 on 12/12/203 <<<<< what is an O6F8 ??? Inspection with Oil Change @ 26653 on 10/12/2024 so all in all she's had 3 oil changes and whatever an O6F8 is

Yeah I am aware of the DGS, Break Fluid etc being outside of the scope of the service plan. I'd do the breaks myself (if it won't void the warranty?) . I am also aware that they dont' clean the filter/pump when doing the hadlex so i'll need to get that done too.

Thanks Yogi! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't about to over pay for something

Service Plan - All in ... good value?
Hello I'm about to take delivery of my new Kodiaq. I'm looking at the Service Plans and the "All in" caught my eye. £38 a month gives me all this for 2 years but does it represent good value for money? 1 x Oil and Inspection Service 1 x Oil and Inspection Extended Scope 2 x MOT 2 Years Roadside Assistance 2 years Extended Warranty 1 x Pollen Filter replacement 1 x Air Filter replacement 1 x Spark Plug / Fuel Filter

Kodiaq Owners Register
Morning folks. SO I am (finally) back in a Kodiaq I originally had a 2019 Scout 2.0 TDI 150 which was fully loaded with all available options. It was awesome. Had it for 3 years and loved every minute of it. However, life as it does, got in the way and the car was moved on. I ended up in an X3 for about 6 months. Engine was amazing (3ltr V6) but I just didn't gel with the car. Moved on to an E-Class estate which was lovely except build quality was poor. Moved that on and ended up in a little Fiesta ST for a while. All the while I was missing my Kodiaq! Well on Saturday I became the owner of a Black 2021 L&K 2.0 tdi (200) and am now waiting for delivery. I'm looking forward to getting her home and then doing a full paint decom, clay, polish, and then ceramic coat :)

Experience of "tuning" boxes
Hello all, Has anyone had any experience of using a tuning box on their kodiaq? specifically the diesel 150. I have had a quick look at the tuning box TDI tuning offer which suggests an increase of some 47bhp and an additional 75nm. Seems like reasonable increases from a plug and play unit but I'd like to hear your experiences of using these in the real world. cheers

Recommended front brake pads?

Recommended front brake pads?
So just to bring this topic full circle.... I dropped the car off at a local Indy in Reading about an hour ago to have them replace the pads. I don't have time at the moment to do them myself. I asked them to check if they needed doing as i was not confident in the statement from the dealer. I just got a call from the Indy... pads are only 50% worn and do not need replacing. 50% over 20,000 miles is reasonable and not unexpected but 85% as sliver said would have indicated erratic driving or a fault which isn't the case. So on the back of this I will collect me car and then go round to skoda and provide them with some feedback.

Recommended front brake pads?
Hi all, Dealer noticed my front pads are 85% worn (after 2 years / 20,000 miles) and wanted £235 to replace them. I'm happy to do that myself and was wondering if anyone can recommend a decent set of pads? TIA Rob
