vRS 170TDi Cork

I do like the front spoiler, as you say the GTi is spoilt for the add-on they have to choose from...

excellent detail....

Can't wait for the pics..

Have a look at this site... http://www.bt-design.cz/vozy/octavia-bt-race/ Go to the Saloon and look..... Wish I had these seats and I like the carbon trim on the dash also..

thanks , these will be useful as they look way bigger.

thanks bud.

That setup really looks well now. They rear spacer are really needed for the vRS, i've them on mine too. 20mm each side. Love the wheels. have you a code for the paint? you've made up my mind, I need that colour...

My old Octy vRS TDI used to get approx 46mpg..

that is some move to make....Enjoy the new motor..out of interest what was the Phaeton worth?

Just rang my local Motor factors and they quoted €280 for the part, so i said I'd see how much the dealer would say. Expecting it to be extra €100, to my suprise it was cheaper. Part came out as €109.55 Product Info -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mfg Part# 1K0998262T The dealers make up the price with fitting as they quoted 2-3 hours, but my local mechanic is going to fit for €30 and wipe the error codes. Hopefully be back on the road for €140. I'm starting to miss my baby already. :'(

Hi All, My EML light came on yesterday evening on the way home. No lack of power untilthis morning it felt way down, after a while the power came back. turn off the car and back on same thing, power gone again. 2007 vRS TFSI. I got the local lad to check the error code p0141 O2 Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 2) and epc light on dash . Does anyone know the part number for the replacment part and do you think if i fit it and clear the error code that is should sort itself out. any idea of the parts price also. If I was to drive 400 miles over the weekend would i cause more damage to the car? Sorry for all the question, but I know you guys always have good advise. Thanks Colin

Just got it remapped over the weekend so should be pushing 245 approx...nothing silly.

I've 40k up on mine so i'm going to get some new ones tomorrow. They are not that costly anyway so i'm getting them, she deserves a bit of loving... NGK Spark Plugs - BKR7EIX I hope these are a popular choice.

My wife owns our one and we are both in our 30's. we love driving it. bit under powered as its the greenline but best buy in years for us. saying that my MKII vRS Combi TFSI is still the best...

Smashing pictures there. You say you haven't cleaned it, it looks spotless to me... My two are in bad need of a clean, just too cold to do it now... wish I had done it before the snow for some nice photos..

Are you able to get it on a phone video and upload the it here. we all then may be able to say if we have similiar sounds..

that looks fair nice Phil, did it cost much in total... any other pictures from a bit further back..

07 vRS TFSI 40,700 miles on clock and i plan of adding another 100,000 to it over the next 5 yrs..

thanks for that. yeah miss the Hatch name. may take you up on your offer. I'm going to call into Tarrents on Monday to see what they say also. Cheers Colin

Hi Lads, Quick question for you all. Can the interior from the Saloon fit the Combi Mk2 Octavia? Need to be 100% sure if I was planning to buy them. any advice please? thanks and rgds, Colin

Did your remap do anything to the ECU?

Thanks lads for all your replies..

Hi Folks, I've a set of wheels to paint so would anyone have the paint code for Anthracite? thanks, Colin

excellent write up... love the look of the car but I would get it lowered a bit.
