I've got an intermittent issue with my Speakers - my R/L Speaker sounds like it is shorting out at times, and when it does it knocks the other speakers out in time with the beats of some tracks - i've found that by setting the Fade to F3 that i don't get the problem with the rear speaker, but then i get a lot more vibration rattles from my F/L Doorcard instead... So, i want to know how i can get the doorcards off (without breaking anything!) so that i can have a look at whats going on and try to stop the rattles and see if there are any obvious problems as to why the rear speaker drops out randomly It so intermittent, i have doubts that the system would play up if i took it to a dealer to have a look

Briskoda Clubstand @ Castle Combe Spring Action day - 25/04/09
djgritt replied to devonutopia's topic in Track Day Action
May have missed it, but whereabouts has the Brisky stand been allocated by CC? I'm up there, with VxON, in a White Corsa with Orange Wheels (quiet at the back... ), but will probably have a mooch on over if i can find you all Jason, i take it you organised it all for here, so you should have a map of the stands, what code are you? We are D47... I can see where you will be on my map if you let me know the code -
Full or Cut/Road Legal Slicks? They don't allow the use of Full Slicks on the Action Days... It's always been mentioned in previous briefings, i've done 5 of these CC Action days myself now...

Tyre Pressure sensor - possible to be faulty?
djgritt replied to Stoofa's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Just not afraid to give the car some grief... If i wanted to pootle along economically, i wouldn't have gone for the vRS Plus I run crappy Dunlop efforts. -
Ah balls to it, haven't noticed for nearly 2 years, and not long left til i get rid of it...
-
Is it? What a crock of ****e. Its pointless! :thumbdwn: I'm poor, don't have Maxidot...

I just noticed today, that when i have my Mirror Adjuster in the 'R' Position, and make any adjustments, BOTH mirrors adjust. If i move the knob up, both go up; If i move it down, both go down; If i move it right, LH Mirror goes left, RH Mirror goes right; If i move it left, LH Mirror goes right, RH Mirror goes left... I'm sure this didn't do this before - if i make adjustments with the Adjuster int he 'L' Position, only the LH Mirror moves, as expected... Problem? Or just something i've not noticed before?

I ALWAYS get the TPM Bing up after new tyres - I know well enough, I get through a pair every 10k Miles I'd only have concerns if it popped up again after being reset -
I own, and regularly wear the following (in the same colours) ... I have more, but looks like the people i bought them off don't do the designs any more as can't find 2 of them on the site I also have a custom one which has 'I've had it up to here with Midgets' written across the belly...

Saw one this week - the Grey doesn't look special, and the wheels are crap. Leathers are nice mind.

Mine's a Company Car, but still has a Colour Coded Grille - it's nothing significant and purely aesthetic, so shouldn't be any worries RE Insurance etc etc - takes 5 mins to swap for an OE one too Not too keen on the lights being there - those panels don't 'do nothing' - would be ****e if you had to access the towing eye for example...

Vrs Limited Edition Queries
djgritt replied to Nelspeed's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Yep, and Yep Passenger one seems to work too -
Mine KEEP on blocking - i've been running plain water through them since Xmas - and they've been cleaned by Skoda since - i had to have a replacement a couple of weeks back - now the other side has blocked up - bloody irritating!

Would you like coloured alloys as an option?
djgritt replied to Steve vRS's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Also, add White to the list... -
Why does my diesel vRS idle at 1000rpm?
djgritt replied to Steve vRS's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I've been getting this intermittent increaded idle, have been for months, no problems though. -
Have I been ripped off? - Michelin Pilot Sport 2 Tyres
djgritt replied to orinj's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
:rofl: Longevity?! I was getting through a front pair of Michelin PS2's every 10k (at best!) It became such an expensive hobby, that my Lease company have put a block on me from having Michelins anymore... Unfortunately, i HAVE to have Dunlops or Pirelli - neither of which i want, because from my experience, they are ****e... The Dunlops are about as good as a set of £30 Ditchfinders, and the Pirellis are too soft and get scrubbed out in no time I want PS2s back -
new milotec carbon b pillar covers
djgritt replied to carrock's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Those Interior bits look awesome! The rest of the Silver trim need doing too though -
Pics give some good hints, but will wait to see better, less disguised ones... 211bhp 1.8 sounds good though
-
My stuff MIGHT fit in there - best bet is to find my local Mazda dealer and see if they will let me try to load one up...
-
That'd be cool, cheers
-
How is the load space in comparison? I know not to expect anything like the Octy, that'd be a bit of a task! But, i need to carry a fair bit daily, so yeah. Got any pics of the bootspace of yours? So i can get an idea of what to expect... Oh, and yours looks awesome, love the White Is it the Sport Aero version?
-
I'm liking the 3 MPS... It's high on my list to replace the Octavia later this year too, very high. Prefer the current Model at the moment because of the understated looks, but the new one is growing on me...

Dunlop Sport SP01 - why such bad reviews?
djgritt replied to a topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I'm on a full set of Dunlop SportMaxx fitted, as now no longer allowed Michelins. All i can say about them is 'Shocking'. :( Grip isn't bad, but could be better, and isn't on par with the PS2's i ran previously. They managed in the Snow well though... -
Looked like a good (but Cold) day - shame i missed it Well, until i remember i was in the Cypriot sunshine instead...
