Many thanks for your info.My door lock LED was on all the time and my battery had gone flat (LEDs dont use any current but the corrosion was probably causing a high resistant voltage leak) My connector plug was corroded similar to yours.I cleaned it all up .now working ok.Note be careful with the connector pins in the window motor they bend easily... use a mirror to check all three rows of pins are straight before you refit connector plug Cliver (2003 TDi estate)

Octavia 1 PD130 turbo problem
cliver replied to Flying Rhino's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
Hi, your 130pd does not have a wastegate you have a vnt turbo .you may have sticky vanes that send car into limp home mode.switching off and on will clear it.(search vnt turbo faults) M.A.F mass air flow faults are common (sensor near air filter) . search you tube for animation of how variable vane technology works. cliver -
re tdi I have a 03 130 tdi elegance estate 6 speed.( Bags of room)Check out the vnt turbo is not sticking.Put it under load going up a steep hill in 6th and see if it goes into limp home mode. cliver
