G12EVO 9.99 Ebay

Hi I paid 1500 cash on a 2011 1.8tsi octavia, DQ200. Yes you need a specialist. I chose a guy in Preston, had one on the shelf only took 3days all good

Needs topping up that aswell.....

Just hada look in my shed, G12evo pink colour 14tsi octavia 2017dsg

Advised Brian so not done

Ps it was 10yrs and 120000 min, actually telling me 140000 was more realistic........

IMO, it's going to be down to the owner of the car, 2 main skoda dealers laughed when I suggested a cambelt change at 76000,20171.4tsi octavia.... Keeps cropping up alot on here and everybody's opinion differs.

This subject crops up alot on here, Nobody knows the ideal solution, are the parts made better to last no idea, 120000miles seems abit excessive to me. If it snaps on you then what............

Toolstn 23104 product code if your UK based

Yes that's it, I also tried not pushing the arm right down on spindle but felt bit loose so opted for rubber washers

Had the exact same problem, bought a box of various size rubber washes and put them on the spindle only a couple of mm thick, worked for me

But steep that obvs main dealer, be looking at less than half for that job, abs sensors are fairly cheap. I purchased my abs sensor off ebay 15quid rear passenger, very easy job and I'm no way a mechanic

Yes I got an ac advisory on my service report from few weeks ago. Air filters and cabin filters, I always ask, mostly never done. I just do them myself. Actually I did get asked about an air filter... Price was 69pounds lol

Cars a 1.4tsi, mitchells skoda, johnsons skoda.... Never in a million yrs would I go to 180000miles without cambelt change regardless of engine .... Unless a chain

I've asked to main skoda dealers with regards to my octavia both said 10yrs..120000

Hi, yes as above, I would service the car plus all filters and skodas new parameters on cambelt change is 120000,so that's a must....

Thanks for the input all in this post, yeah could have a point, don't drive the car in sports mode..... Would you suggest buying the treatment you add to the petrol....... Eg the Forte additive, it's a petrol engine

SmallUpdate Let the car run down with fuel, filled up with a full tank of vpower(nearly fainted at price lol) drove home cleared all faults... Driven car as normal. Checked for the fault codes yesterday and to my amazement there wasn't any fault codes. So not sure what's going on....

P0304 code

Don't notice any issues with car, Vcds throws a code up.....

Yes cheers 6mths left on warranty, they stated it's all noted for future, if car runs poorly..... But yeah... Lots of iffs and buts.....

Yes, nearly 2yrs and twice

Felt like they didn't want to do the work, don't they claim it back of Skoda.... So not like it costing them anything. Going to phone a vw specialist up and see what they say.......

I cleared the faults then filled it up at shell....... Feel like I been fobbed off... As car still has warrenty.....

Don't know, only what they've told me
