I done the “DSG reset” the other day and I’m sure I noticed a difference, so I guess when it has a service they reset something software wise. That reminds me I’ve not long gone over 40k and need to book in the service shortly

Sounds possessed to me. I’d find somewhere near where you had the work done and see if you can replicate it near, then get a mechanic in the car with you, just make sure you can hear the noise on the same part of the road. Might be worth getting someone you know to see if it makes that sound outside

Used it for the first time in 2 weeks, Gout in the big toe is bloody horrible, still can’t walk properly 😞

I would have thought you’d need something like VCDS to purge the ABS. Is that not the case or just something not necessary?

The extended scope is just more checks have a look here https://www.skoda.co.uk/owners/servicing-maintenance-fixed-price scroll down a bit and you’ll see “oil and inspection service” then scroll right and you’ll see extended scope then click full details The extended scope is normally on top of your annual service

There use to be a handy PDF but can’t see this years one cambelt & waterpump is the big one

It’s a choice you’ll have to decide yourself. I personally went for diesel purely because when I do a long trip in my car it’s a long one, mostly it’s short journeys but never ever had the dpf light come on, had a few regens though, if I notice I’ll go a little further until it stops (back fired EU eh?) I much preferred the grunt the diesel produces and felt the petrol seemed a bit tinnie if that makes sense. If I were you, I’d focus on what options and colour you want then see what’s available in your budget, I honestly can’t see you going wrong with either to be honest. Might be worth checking the VED aswell as I’m sure petrols are or can be a lot higher

I’m pretty sure I’ve read on here a lot of those errors will disappear. Also read about doing a full lock left and full lock right to clear errors, pretty sure that was in relation to new battery installed

What xenon bulbs do you have?

I took brembo discs along with me for my local Skoda dealer to fit along with genuine pads. They’ll just say it’s a wear and tear item so not worth the hassle imo

Ah I read small print as well so cheaper for you as it’s near expiration. To answer your question the all in package is one up from listed component and DSG is listed there. It says it’ll repair or replace, so DSG should be fine, however I’d do the quiet service at 40k miles for DSG then I can’t see how they could argue

£188 is a bargain, I just done a quote for mine 2016 40k miles with £250 excess and comes out as £481 I suppose yours is cheaper as it’s still under manufacturers warranty isn’t it?

Could have been me They’re still looking great

There is no coating on the OE ones and will look worse soon enough. As your car is new I’d paint them. When my rears got replaced I went for Brembo disks as they’re coated and look nice For painting I’d say use hammerite smooth silver or black and do a good few coats, probably be easier with brush on rather than aerosol

That’s why they’re so expensive it’s magic

It’s been fine since the plus gas to be honest. As lubricating it sorted it if it does it again I’ll get the Wurth product

I wouldn’t fancy spending that much to only have to butcher it for a Skoda logo, be better to buy the OE one of they ever did. Not something I’m desperate for but would be nice

Exactly that https://youtu.be/3aqkxNqiugU https://youtu.be/RzMVGMKlnyg

Does anyone know if Skoda will ever do a dynamic wheel cap like VW and Audi? My wheel caps are pretty minging and would go nicely on a superb, expensive though

Finally used the boot things after 5 years

Found it today, never noticed it before

Which dealer did you go to?

So they plugged it in and found a fault then want you to pay £102 for them to plug it on and see if there’s a fault? Is your car a diesel? I googled VW P171900 (p1719) and could be as simple as low ish battery or it was doing a regen

Give this a go

Doh. 1 more thing I can think of is try pushing the inside panel on the actual boot everywhere and see if you get a rattle. Or if you think it’s actually the boot, can you push down on different areas from the outside and have someone from the inside push just after you push, if it rattles then bingo found the issue
