  1. Hello, i have a 2015 Octavia 1.6tdi 105hp 77KW ----Engine - CLHA ---Trasnmission - MWW(5S) im in need of a new clutch and im under the impression that if you have a DMF you should replace this also. looking through flywheel listings they appear to all state they are for DSG or dual clutch transmissions, i have a 5 speed manual. can anyone shed any light on this for me? also if anyone knows of a video of a clutch replacement for the octavia or an equivalent VW group car that would be great as Skoda just Quoted me £1850.00 for Clutch + Flywheel so i am considering attempting it on my back. Thanks!
  2. Hi Johnny, Thanks for all the info in this post ive basically copied most of your install just that i have put it all in the spare wheel space. Just a quick question, using the Lc7i, im getting a constant hissing sound thats audible at all gain levels on the Lc7i however its barely audible if the gain is at minimum (would need to put your ear to the tweeter) did you ever come across any kind of hiss? TIA, Josh
  3. Hi, is there coding required for LED H15's? 2015 1.6Crdi Elegance I swapped over to LED main beams a while back, and since then my high beam assist has always shown a fault and refused to work. any way around this other than returning to halogens? I could not see any threads about this coding in specific. if anyone has any experience or could point me in the right direction it would be great. Many thanks, Josh
  4. Hey J_D, Yeah I had them out to do the reverse / fog's which was a big improvement of both brightness and colour, do you have any thought about the top and bottom P21W's and being LED? I noticed when I was testing the reverse/ parking lights (ignition on, engine off, car in reverse, handbrake on) that both the top and bottom P21Ws were illuminated, just dimly. I’m sure there’s an engineering advantage to this over using the lamps with dual filaments with different current ratings but I’m not sure the LED P21W's are going to deal with whatever the car is doing to reduce the brightness. Good point on the light colour, I had already decided on red LED's as I’m after that deeper red colour that can be achieved, I would imagine if you fit white LED’s behind red lenses you would end up with pink lights. I can take a punt, worst case scenario £30 wasted. Yes ahenners, I know, the only units I have seen seem pretty pricy for the sake of an aesthetic improvement I’m just trying to keep the price down, £30-£45 for all the lights in the rear clusters to LED vs £300+ for 2 LED complete units. Thanks for your reply’s,
  5. Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone has put LED brake lights on their Octavia (2015 Estate)? I have noticed that the car uses W5W and P21W bulbs and uses the same P21W to be both tail light and the brake light, i would assume through voltage regulation, now in my mind a LED bulb from ali express may not handle this very well can anyone shed some light :P on this for me? thinking of using https://www.aliexpress.com/item/iJDM-Car-T10-Canbus-Error-free-W5W-168-194-Car-motorcycle-LED-Reading-Mirror-License-Plate/32868797837.html?spm=a2g0s.13010208.99999999.272.1ee43c00MsG6n7 for W5W and https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NAO-2x-1156-LED-BA15S-P21W-S25-18-led-3030-Chips-6000K-White-Brake-Lights-Reverse/32810391568.html?spm=a2g0s.13010208.99999999.260.1ee43c00MsG6n7 for P21W Cheers, Josh
