So I fitted my switch this weekend and it was unbelievably easy. It took me about 20 minutes once I figured out how to get the gear shrouding off. I'll upload a picture shortly in case it helps other Octavia VRS owners. Thanks for the info in this thread. I saved myself £300+ Shame on Skoda for not making this a recall and even worse, going for the more expensive gearbox repair option when an official part can be fitted so easily.

I've just bought from skoda-parts.com, £49 in total.

Seems I cannot edit my post. Ah well hopefully you get the point.

You're right, is it incredibly distracting.

I have this issue on my 2016 VRS Octavia. The dealer charged me £75 to diagnose the issue, then said it would be £360 to fix it. I declined the fix. But have now seen there's a kit you can buy. Does anyone know where I can purchase it from in the UK?
