Hoping these photos will help to explain my rambling above. Can anyone tell me what this connecting pipe is called, where I could get one (I’m based in Sydney) and if I can replace this myself? It looks like it could be connected and disconnected easy enough, the rest of the unit works fine as far as I know. Cheers

Hello, I was wondering why my windscreen washers were not getting any action even though I refilled with screen wash. Looked under the bonnet and saw that when I was filling there was leaking in the engine bay, turns out the plastic connecting pipe to the filling unit is completely done, I mean dust. The previous owner had disguised well with black duck tape which was keeping this connection together. Can the unit be replaced by a novice or is it better to go to a mechanic for it? Is it expensive to buy a new unit or do I need just a part? Any help is appreciated as always. Cheers

Thanks, so I just turned on the fans full whack yesterday and turned to cold (no auto/ ECON function enabled). Is that the A/C going? Why make it so difficult.

Hello, New to the forum, bought myself an Octavia VRS Estate/Wagon a few months back. 2.0 litre manual in blue. Love it. Based in Sydney, so the temperatures are starting to ramp up coming into spring/summer. Cannot get my head around the air con system and how to operate it. Do not understand the ECON/ AUTO feature at all. There is no simple A/C button in my model. Can someone please tell me in the first instance how you would go turning on the A/C (I understand that it is not ECON function)? The A/C was serviced about two years ago according to the service history, I understand the compressor is ****e, but is there a way to test to see if the A/C works before actually asking for it to be refilled. Appreciate any help. Slainte, Niall
