Hi Sleepy_Nonah Yes you are perfectly correct as the parts quoted are a retro fit not OEM fitted!

I gave this calibration technique a go and it definitely worked on my 2016 Octavia. It's surprisingly easy to perform and after calibrating twice, now I have heat in the cab in 2 minutes. Brilliant!!!

As a professional Welding & Quality Engineer I know there are no silly questions, so I thank you for your input. It was commuting just after storm Arwen when ambient temp was around zero. I tried selecting the different combinations of the air direction zones & checked air was being directed as selected. I tried also selecting the AC system, as a previously owned new Kia Sportage GT Line had a supplemental heater in the AC system. Unfortunately my Octavia AC output seems to have no discernable effect on heat output! Once again thanks for your question.

Hi Franky65 How did you get on with sorting your space heater? When its really cold outside, my Octavia takes 30 minutes before I get warm air coming into the cabin.

Fantastically detailed guide that's perfect or this idiot to follow. It took me longer to order the parts than to fit whilst I was following the guide.

Hi I am Mike's and have recently bought an ex work, high mileage 1.6 TDI 2016 Octavia Estate in white. Despite the high mileage (K133) it drives really well.
