  1. HVO how the 90% cleaner is achieved in how it is produced The massive savings come from a "well-to-wheel" view. For every 1,000 litres of fossil diesel burned, you add roughly 3.6 tonnes of new CO2 to the environment. For 1,000 litres of HVO, the net lifecycle impact drops to about 0.195 tonnes Will reducing the co2 in the atmosphere compensate for the rise in global temperature caused by cleaning the air?
  2. If you can charge at home I doubt you will be disappointed, I bought one coming from a diesel with a big boot, Once i got used to using the height of it as opposed to length it's huge.Mine was used not new, Check out the service plans on the Skoda website can pay monthly no interest.
  3. The Asda near me has not displayed the price of Diesel for over ten months
  4. The spokesperson added: "The price customers are paying for diesel (as of August 14) is 174.7ppl. "This was an issue with the pixels on the sign, and a job has been logged to fix this issue. "We apologise for any inconvenience caused."
  5. So if it now shows as the charge that may be all you pay and the chargepoint made the error If though the hold disappeared, Gridserve's payment gateway retains the credit token generated during the session. If their automated system encounters a back-end batching delay or a software glitch, it can take up to 30 days for the final usage charge to appear on the statement as a finalized transaction. I also got Public EV chargers occasionally drop their internet connections or experience offline terminal timeouts mid-session. When this happens, Gridserve's central server may register the charge as a failed or aborted transaction, meaning it completely abandons the payment capture. The £10 hold drops away, and the user essentially receives a free charge. Your answer wasn't really clear as to whether it was still there
  6. Is it showing as "pending" or is it now processed as the charge
  7. Bargain 😄 I thought they where about £20 each
  8. Thanks for that I had, as yet, never come across a minimum charge. Did have one pub that added a £1 connection fee I assume the charging cost went to the CPO so the pub was charging for parking.
  9. The Car ExpertDoes a seller have to declare damage on a car? | The Car...What are the rules about any damage being declared on a car you're buying? Well, it's complicated, which car dealers use to their advantage.
  10. Not in my experience Applegreen for example send an email at start then another at end of charge i have come home to a dozen emails regarding one session with only the last one with a cost charged.
  11. I don't think there is a minimum. I have plugged in it starts and when i come back it had stopped after 1kw and i have had to start again.
  12. https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/modely/en_us/GUID-CB07D968-612A-4FAB-977D-CD01C69464D0.html I wonder if the car records how low you let it go for Battery warranty use..
  13. His trip is entirely on the motorway, maybe he doesn't gamble with £100 fine and three penalty points
  14. Partly explains the congestion on the motorways, having to keep to 60 in the 2nd lane to overtake Lorries but maintain your range? if you're that worried stay behind them.
  15. Would be the safest way, It isn't safe to look at the Sun without special glasses
  16. Under warranty is good, would probably be around £300+ at main dealers otherwise Apparantly they are also Model and trim specific too
  17. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/206441044165?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5339155387&toolid=10044&_trkparms=ispr=1&amdata=enc:1-SNO2VqiQf6i2XF2AfIemg11&ff=11&customid=Cj0KCQjwkOvTBhDgARIsAKUNyRvHndKYVHXXsg-6jzi1vHnfTq9SII-XCUZLhyImArt8O-Xe1k-zBmAaAvLjEALw_wcB&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkOvTBhDgARIsAKUNyRvHndKYVHXXsg-6jzi1vHnfTq9SII-XCUZLhyImArt8O-Xe1k-zBmAaAvLjEALw_wcB Appears to be one unit Check the item description to confirm this fits your vehicle
  18. faulty stalk if they are on the same one, common problem with modern cars
  19. It's one of the annoyances with most automotive forums. When someone posts a problem for help but then never returns to say what the solution was.
  20. I can totally understand why you want to do it. I'm a bit of a sucker for all the latest bells and whistles myself, and if there's a way of making the car do something that a higher-spec model does, I'm usually the first to start wondering how it can be done! 😄 Having looked at what would potentially be involved with the Mk4 though, I'm not sure I'd actually go ahead with this one. The thing is, what you've already got isn't really a "lesser" TPMS system in terms of what it's there to do. It uses the ABS/wheel-speed sensors to monitor for a loss of pressure and, if it detects one, it tells you about it. So the important bit — knowing you've got a tyre that's losing pressure — is already covered. To get the actual numbers on the screen, you're potentially looking at four direct TPMS sensors, a receiver and possibly another module/wiring, plus fitting, coding etc. And then, at some point down the line, you've got four little batteries in the wheels that are going to run out and need dealing with. All of that just to change the information from: "There's a problem with this tyre" to: "This tyre is currently at 2.1 bar." And I completely get why you'd want the second one! 😂 It's just that I'm not sure I'd want to spend potentially quite a bit of money and introduce extra hardware into an otherwise perfectly happy car purely to get that information. A decent digital pressure gauge will give you the actual figures whenever you want them, and you can check all four tyres in a couple of minutes before a long journey. If I'd been speccing the car from new and direct TPMS was an option, I'd definitely have ticked the box. But as a retrofit, I'd probably put this one in the "nice to have" column and keep it on the bucket list for the next car. Then when the next Superb comes along, you can tick the box for direct TPMS from the factory or make sure thee used car has it and enjoy watching all four pressures appear on the screen without having to retrofit half the car to make it happen! 😁 That's just my take on it though — if seeing those four numbers on the OEM screen every time you get in the car is going to make you happy, then I completely understand why you'd want to do it. Sometimes that's reason enough!
  21. If you intend to use Skoda main dealer 2 services have plans. Monthly payments with zero interest . They also have an all in plan form year three https://customer.vwfs.co.uk/service-plans/skoda.html?traci_c=UK|SI|GA|PM|SKODA:DM-P:&traci_s=SI:SKODA:SEA:Google:PerformanceMaxAd:2024-12:&traci_ee=22041507480::::::&traci_t=:::&s_kwcid=AL!10901!3!!!!x!!&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22051408243&gclid=CjwKCAjwyuDTBhB-EiwANCQhLCkFGobbhgE7ZfHM_hd8s4Q2bcibzWXgUH6bN2ly46HTm2MZD08GDBoCDL8QAvD_BwE
  22. That suggests it isn't a "glitch". Given the circumstances that you are "abroad", i think you should probably listen to the mechanic with the diagnostic tool. Your car must be at least ten year old so if this is the first injector that's not bad. What mileage has it done
  23. After you explained to him that the car has been sat for three months did he clear the code to see if it returned?
