  1. Just to confirm, is this for vRS or non vRS 7 seater. I have a vRS with the battery in the back below false floor and doesn't seem to be a vRS kit for spare wheel that I can find.
  2. Is that an 18" spare and is it going in a vRS (battery in the boot)? If so, where did you get the kit from? Thanks
  3. I know this is an old thread but is there a spare wheel kit specifically for the Kodiaq vRS? There's a battery in the boot of the vRS version which takes up room and forces the location of spare wheel further forward. My dealer supplied an 18" spare wheel (needed on the vRS due to large front brakes) but the space beneath the 3rd row of seats isn't large enough to hold the 18" wheel (the foam inserts don't leave enough room). Just wondering if anyone else has managed to get a spare wheel kit for the vRS (68 plate bi-turbo) thanks.
  4. I think that's not a bad idea. I got a quote for Pentagon Supaglass film to be installed on the front windows which I'm going to get fitted when my car's back from the repair shop!
  5. Same car park Tuesday this week and colleague had VW Tiguan broken into. Thieves were spotted and chased off. Yesterday another colleague had her Seat Leon broken into but were caught in the act and chased off. This is the 2nd time for both of them and they've both said they're getting rid of their cars and buying non VAG group cars next! And I'm still driving my wife's old Golf!
  6. So, this week, in the same car park.... A work colleague almost caught (what we think are ) the same thieves attempting to steal his sat nav from his VW Tiguan. Fortunately, he saw them through the window and a load of them piled out of the building. The thieves managed to get into their 'getaway' car!! - a dark blue Ford Focus - without stealing the sat nav. just smashed the window and ripped off the trim surrounding the unit. They got the registration number and have handed it to the police (although it's probably fake). So is it possible to make the screen on my Columbus II unit "quick release" so I can take it into work when I park my car. Currently using my missis' old Golf to go to work!
  7. Maybe a coincidence but I've just noticed they're also based in Bradford!!
  8. Insurance company are dealing with it. Had the glass replaced today and am waiting for insurance company to authorise the local garage to do the repair. After reading various threads on here I'm now contemplating replacing the unit with a compatible of Infotainment system.
  9. I put this link on another thread - just wondering what people think to these: http://www.cartechuk.com/rns-navi-locks/ They're a bit expensive but could be worth it if they prevent your system being robbed!
  10. What do people think of these? http://www.cartechuk.com/rns-navi-locks/ They seem a bit pricey but if they stop the nav units being nicked....
  11. yeah. Smashed nearside window with half a brick. Glass everywhere! Police came out to see if they could lift any prints but couldn't. They said there's been a recent spate of them in Leeds/Bradford area.
  12. Had my Octavia vRS broken into on Friday afternoon!! It was parked in a public car park in Bradford and they swiped the entire sat nav / system. Police said they're still getting nicked from VW group cars. I thought Skoda had sorted the problem out now and that the system was 'married' to the specific car. I'm guessing someone has figured a way to decode them. I also read but am sceptical that they're targeted for the chip inside which can be used to decode sky tv. I think this may have been the case 10 years ago but does this even sound feasible? Anyway, be on your guard if you work / live in Bradford area.
  13. Just had my system nicked in broad daylight from a public car park in Bradford. Mine is a 16 plate vRS so they're still getting nicked. :(
