Brake Disc Size Query
somedudebob replied to somedudebob's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Thanks for this. Front options are 340, 312, 276. I think theyre 312 but not 100% Rear options are 272 and 253... -
Hi Folks, I have a 2014 vRS TDI Estate and I need discs and pads all round, But everywhere I look lists 3 different sizes for the front and 2 for the rear. Is there any easy way to get the right parts ordered first time round? Cheers!

Well @SashaGrace to the rescue. Turns out I’d made a mistake in the wiring. the directional lines work, however the distance indicators, well, look a bit short to be useful. But not really too worries since the distance indicators from the sensors are displayed on screen too. now to figure out what’s next. wireless CarPlay and Charging? wheel refurb decisions, decisions -

According to the packaging and order it was an NTSC camera I purchased. That doesn’t mean it’s what arrived though. I don’t know what a Pal camera when it should be NTSC looks like, if your confirming that my example looks like this I’ll chase with the seller -

Ah ok, Yes that makes perfect sense, I just meant odd from my perspective, of assuming that the car would believe it was built the same year it was registered, Like Im expecting someone to code in a date of birth as it rolls out the factory or something. Long and short of it is my worries of a clocked dud car have been alleviated. Now, If only I could get this blooming camera working. Im going to re make the connections at the back of the stereo again over the weekend, and double check my power is good, If no avail there, Ill run a temporary fused power down the car from the battery as a test. -

You are correct. The 10th Digit is matching up with 2015 year, all be it first reg in 2014. How very odd. -

Oh for goodness sake. Don’t I look a tool now 😂😂😂😂 Doesn’t explain the issue with the year though. I’ll dig out my paperwork tomorrow but it was definitely a 2014 car -

Now I’m even more confused. Because I noticed this when looking at the fault codes. The mileage reads +108k. Where as there is 68k on the clocks. Now the stereo isn’t the original, so is that the mileage from the car the stereo was removed? Or has my car been messed with? -
