Hi there Thanks very much for getting back about this. The fauly codes do tend to appear as a trio, although on occasion it is a single P2015 that rears its head, which might point to that being the cause. This is probably a stupid question, but is there an easy way to locate the earth in question? I was looking for wiring diagrams online and so forth, but no luck as of yet. As i say its possibly asking the obvious. The only other solution I was toying with was the possibility of maybe opening the flaps and remapping them out of the system as such. But I know this is probably not recommended in the long run. Thanks again for your help with this.

Hi all I’m not sure if this in the right place or indeed if it’s been covered elsewhere. But I figured I’d start somewhere with it. 1.6fsi petrol 2008 . 119k. After a bit of a blip at 73k involving a new injector on cylinder 4 it had been running well. However recently it started running like a pig and dropping onto 3 cylinders with cylinder 4 playing up again . Fault codes were - p2015 p0304 p0204 Plug replaced and coil replaced and it is running on 4 cylinders again. However it repeatedly starts to run rough and the eml light is still kicking in with - P2015 A friend ran it on their better diagnostic machine and said it was showing as Swirl Flaps closed. Do as it stands it’s still running strained and rough. If that’s makes any sense. So I was curious if that’s was a common thing with the 1.6fsi ? Again sorry if this is covered elsewhere .

Hi all Cheers for all the replies. Well, I replaced the air filter and plugs. Still the same. So I took the plunge and changed out the coils. Dealer had claimed to have changed one. So I went and did the rest. Now runs bang on Seems It looks like one of the others failing under load might have been it. Cheers for all the help. Glad I came across this forum

Hi there It does seem fine when pushed hard. Brisk acceleration seems to be fine. Although it's possibly got a slight lumpiness when cruising on the motorway. Apologies for being a bit vague, it's my first Octavia so I don't have a point of comparison. it did have new plugs put inat the same time as a new cool pack, as one plug seemed to be browned a little with heat. But the problem is still there. Hope this makes vague sense.

Its a first post , sadly it's to ask about a slight fault I'm suffering at the moment. Car is a 2008 mk2 Octavia 1.6fsi. It seems to have an issue when hot. It basically behaves like a pig between 2/3000 rpm or thereabouts. To the point where it feels likes it's about to run out if petrol. Then once above about 3000 it's absolutely fine. Idle is fine, in fact very smooth. There are no warning lights and no fault codes. A mechanic replaced one of the coils recently. But still no difference. He also tweaked the throttle adaptation (his words,) still it's hesitant at 2/3000. Ive not had it too long. But am running it on super UL to see if that helps. Sorry for rambling, hope it makes sense? Cheers

Oops just realised this should probably be in the Octavia forum!
