I think i just need to remove gloebox and side trim and will give me a good look at the matrix pipes etc, possibly get valeo or denso with part number maybe

How do i confirm this is definitely the correct part for my 2018 octavia vrs 184bhp. Ive read there are different matrix with differen shapes etc Also is this a decent part as quite reasonably priced Mechanic said part from dealers would be £240

Been meaning to get my heater sorted the past two years now, summer rolls around and it just seems unimportant. There is zero heat coming from the driver side and just a little from passenger I suspect the heater matrix is blocked, coolant tank looks ok and silicone doesnt appear split Can the matrix be flushed out without replacing and if it needs replaced how do i determine the correct part and i read a thread last year on different shapes of matrixes. Cant seem to find it

Could be what i have. Not exactly clued in on this but i assume there should be brake pads regardless of what's in place at the hitch

I must check it for brakes, ive not had it long, bought from a family member so dont have the details on it. If i can only tow 750kg loaded then its not much use as it weighs that empty lol Ive lifted a couple of heavy loads of timber, about 500kg and no driving issues. It definitely hasnt electric brakes but i check around the wheels for hydraulic brakes, there is a level connected with a cable but i think thats just a handbrake to stop trailer moving when unhooked

I stumbled upon a weighbridge, with my empty trailer and 2018 octavia vrs, it showed a weight of 2120kg. Not an option to unhook trailer to weigh car but i think octsvia is around 1400kg. That puts trailer at 700kg and its unbraked I think im ok to pick up this pizza oven, its 800kg so MAM will be less than 3000kg, im allowed 3500kg

Ive got VCDS connected to my car. Ive done a full scan. Cannot see anything related to heater flaps Is there a subsection i should be looking at

Surely a blocked heater matrix would not be impacting the AC (cold air) My timing belt was recently done along with coolant and wate pump so all looking good If its the heater flap motor then it has to be both sides and both are causing problems Couod it be the thermostat I must get vcds, i assume it will tell me if motors are faulty?

Ive tried calibrating them several times to no avail. Is this going to be a full dash removal then to get the thing fixed. Second car now this has happened to be lol

Over the winter i noticed my driver side had no heat. It appeared the heater matrix was the problem. Now im not so sure. Ive now noticed I have an issue with the air con. The passenger does not have cold air, driver side does So basically, driver side no heat, good AC Passenger side, great heat but no AC

I have no doubt the trailer is capable, its a braked 4 wheel galvanised trailer. Just not sure if 700kg is too much for the octavia

I need to collect a pizza oven, it weighs 700kg. Is this too heavy for a 2018 skoda octavia?

I thought my issue was only related to driver side not getting hence, new matrix would fix it. Since its quite warm i didnt think it would be an issue but now i find passenger side is not cold enough, driver side is nice and cold So is the problen still the matrix, does it affect how cold the AC is?

Ive tried the heater flap reset several times but no joy Looking at one of these heater matrix parts. Seems to be different sizes, is there anyway to know what one i need? https://m.buycarparts.co.uk/skoda/octavia-5e3/59676/10204/heat-exchanger-interior-heating
