Re map of my MK3 Octavia vrs deisel
mpwood123 replied to ISQ's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I debated about either remapping or getting a tuning box for my 17 VRS TDI and eventually went to DTUK and bought the tuning box. So happy with it! It took me about 5 minutes to plug it all in and I have used all 3 modes and its great! Just got to get a feel for the mode your happy with...obviously if you whack the power up then the fuel consumption will drop, much like any other car but then youve got the extra boost of power! I currently have mine running on Map 2 with +1 Power and its great, pulls hard in every gear but notice it mainly on the motorway, even at 70mph if i want to overtake someone then i just accelerate and the car pulls like a train! Very happy with it and i would recommend it to anyone who wants more power from their VRS TDI. -
Oil Leak! 3 Months Old!
mpwood123 replied to mpwood123's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Initially that's what I thought but the cap is on secure and there's no oil on the top of the engine so it's definitely coming out from the bottom somewhere, hopefully I'll find out today -
Hello everyone, Over the past few days I've noticed small patches of oil on my drive, didn't think much of it until last night, after parking up after driving for about half hour, left the car for a few hours before moving it and noticed a fresh oil patch. Took it to work today (I work in a garage) and put it up on a ramp, the whole under tray and underneath of the engine and suspension was covered in oil! Took it to the nearest Skoda today and I've left it in their capable hands, any one else had an oil leak so early on? Mileage is only 4700 and only bought it in March this year!

No no still 2016 model, I don't like the facelift lights to be honest!
