Hi everbody More information to support my previous posts, My Skoda Roomster was entered into a local garage for repairs. This is information from the invoice, diagnostic test carried out ECU, CYLINDER ONE POOR OUTPUT FROM THE COIL PACK AND FOULED UP SPARK PLUGS ON CYLINDERS ONE AND FOUR. CARRIED OUT COMPRESSION TEST ON ALL CYLINDERS AND FOUND THREE AND FOUR WERE LOWER IN COMPRESSION THAN ONE AND TWO. REMOVED AND REPLACE COIL PACK HT LEADS AND SPARK PLUGS ADVICE TO CUSTOMER THAT THE VALVE SEATS COULD BE AFFECTED BY CARBON BUILD UP AND SUGGEST A SODA ENGINE CLEAN AS THIS PROBLEM COULD HAPPEN WITHIN THE NEXT 3,000 MILES (REPAIRS AS OF THE 9TH JULY) I am monitoring the mileage of my car at the moment and everything seems to be fine. Do Skoda Roomster in particular have a problem with engine carbon or is it a myth. Thanks everybody any adivce appreciated
