  1. Sounds like you need a van mate haha! why not a nice caddy van? very nice daily (if you get the right one) and still plenty of room in the back.
  2. @hutchysrs50 Nice!! go well nice with the leather, show us some pictures when its all done and fitted
  3. oh didnt realise that was all to it, do you know what bulbs i need to buy to change my dashboard lights and door switches etc..
  4. was thinking about spraying mine gloss black, havent got the balls yet to start ripping my dash apart haha
  5. Looks wikid mate, looks abit complicated for me tho haha
  6. Now thats nice! is it much to do you change them? .. skoda should have sent them out the factory with them as standard on the VRS SE
  7. Anybody done anything inside the VRS cockpit? Ive got an SE just looking for something to do nice inside to bring it kind of to life haha nothing major just so it doesn't look old and boring.. Pictures appreciated!
  8. Hi guys! Sooooo today after a lot of hand bleeding, reverse bleeding and several bottles of brake fluid I still had no clutch pedal. I then opted to borrow an easy bleed but no joy so I ended up buying one from Machine Mart. After a quick 5 or so minutes with the easybleed the bubbles stopped and a nice constant stream of fluid came out so I locked up the nipple... and to great surprise I had a clutch pedal!! and its better now than it has ever been since owning it! @sepulchrave you must be right in saying the clutch pedal/master doesn't have a long enough stoke to clear all the air, your advise certainly helped So thanks to everyone who has helped down then line and got me sorted! Glad I joined the page now as its so helpful with advice from others, I can now enjoy my VRS haha #OneHappyVrsOwner
  9. @lupoluke I had a look today and couldn't see anything looked pretty much dry tbf mate. @sepulchrave ill see if I can get my hands on one then and give it a try first of all, thanks for the help mate
  10. And you say the only proper way to bleed is with an easybleed? .. another question, how could I check if the slave is at fault is it possible without taking the box off?
  11. Not sure on the slave as I bought the car xmas eve, paperwork however states the car has had a master fitted in Feb 17. Ive bought another master the other day but just wanted to eliminate all other possibilities before fitting it as surely it shouldn't/couldn't have gone yet? Am I right it saying the only bleed nipple is down by the front of the gear box?
  12. Just an update.. checked the fluid level first thing this morning and was fine, no signs of leaks either! pressed the clutch and it went straight to the floor with a little persuasion of the hand the clutch pedal came back after 10 or so pumps? I then bled the clutch again (normal bleed) and still the same so I tired a method called "reverse bleed" and that still hasn't done the trick either. I can drive the car a short distance then the pedal with start to drop again, once pulled over and again another 10 pumps the clutch pedal comes back??!!!! Am I missing something or if anybody has anymore knowledge it would be appreciated, thanks!
  13. Nice one, will check first thing tomorrow as i bought a master today ready to fit, would hate to fit it then turns out to be something so simple haha
  14. Hi! Sorry if im asking something that's already been covered, I've literally just joined the group and not sure how to work things yet! I've recently bout a Fabia Vrs SE, the other day the clutch pedal gradually started to get lower and lower (the bite) until i couldn't get it in gear? I had to turn the car off and start up in gear and it isnt leaking any fluid any suggestion's? Paperwork states its had a master fitted in Feb 2017. Any help would be appreciated thanks!
