Octavia mk2 vrs mpg issue
therams replied to vrs-christiano's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
its the coil packs and once one goes the others follow, my 2011 vrs had same issue, one failed , then another went months later so did them all and mpg returned to normal -
is this the fix for missing tmc then

exactly the same with mine, noise decreases when clutch depressed at idle

superb l&k 16 plate, clutch/ flywheel replacement
therams replied to therams's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
good shout on A&A motors , i have used them before, the prices at dm keith are well expensive, i will check wallis as well -
the car is tricky to get in first gear on occasions, also at low revs excessive vibration and noise (cannot pinpoint exact location of noise) and hardly any travel on clutch pedal when depressed. skoda saying possible clutch wear and flywheel replacement required , possible cost around £1800-2000, seems a bit pricey is this about right

Poor rear washer performance or just normal?
therams replied to Calskil's topic in Skoda Superb Mk III (2015 - 2023)
mines not worked for 5 years ,skoda blamed it on cheap supermarket screen wash, which rubbish as i use good quality screen wash -
my mark lll 16 plate with 67k manual is starting to make the same noise, skoda hull had it for a day but were guessing that it could be possible flywheel issue, nothing resolved yet just to keep an eye on it,

hi, with the ongoing lockdown thought it would be good chance to update the maps on the columbus sat nav, went on the update portal for skoda entered my VIN and it says that" no update available " how is this possible as the maps will never been updated from new , any pointers ? im guessing that its not done automatically or is this a model and age (superb 16 reg) that cannot be updated
