Since purchase of my Octavia 1.4 Auto estate in April 2014 I have been watching many posts on this car and now feel the time to introduce some balance to the many topics that surround this Model. During my ownership I have experienced NO problems at all.
Yes, the suspension is a tad firm. And any perceived drumming can be sorted by, a Spare Wheel,A rubber boot mat,a blanket under the boot floor and a window left one inch open. No problem. Apart from that, the software mod has greatly reduced the snatchy take off (most of the time) Finally after three years , the suspension has softened up somewhat or was that too long to have waited.
