Just had my 2014 2.0tdi done under warranty, it took them 3 weeks, two heater cores and countless flushes to get rid of the crap.

I live in ne scotland just 5 miles inland from Peterhead up a couple of single track roads that can be pretty bad at times, even seen the snow plough getting stuck once or twice I just got an a 2014 Octavia that is fitted with 17'' Michelin Crossclimate tyres. I have always kept snow chains in the boot as i have needed then in the past for various cars but apparently we can not fit snow chains to the 17'' wheel tyre combo we have (guess there is no clearance). In the past i have tried various winter and all season tyres and the only time i was disappointed with one was when the michelin cross climates first came out i had a set fitted to my Lexus and i got stuck at the top of a hill, the same hill i had driven up a little time before with the wifes smart forfour fitted with winter tyres that went up the hill with hardly a wheel spin so given the choice i would go with full winter tyres every time. We also have a little 4WD Toyota that runs year round on winter tyres so it tends to get used most when snow threatens
