  1. Have you checked the fuses on battery? Like metal strips. They sometimes blow and have a hairline crack commonly missed.
  2. Are they NGK? Did you check the manual?
  3. Piston heads can't even get the data right, wouldn't go on their review. It's a sport hatch so it's going to have some nvh
  4. Don't think I've ever had less than 85 on my 1.5 TSI and I'm sure it went down to 31 mpg sat in traffic haven't been on a long run yet to test it fully.
  5. Usually says on the box, anywhere from 23-27nm.iirc
  6. I just use my mobile phone hotspot
  7. You can do DIY but just keep an eye on the tyres. If it's wearing the inner then screw the rack out of the tie rod and vice versa
  8. If the dealer did the wheel alignment then you should not have to pay again after fitting new parts. You can change the bushes only which imo is a better option as aftermarket arms puts the geometry out.
  9. Nearly every one I have in has a split hose. If you remove the engine cover then where the hose is in a clip on the timing belt cover gently wiggle the pipe and you might see the corrugated hose split. Other things can be over filling the tank causing the canister to become filled with fuel and also the fuel cap seal not sealing correctly. The hoses are around £137 as they contain sensors etc.
  10. What are you not happy about?
  11. You should shift to neutral and wait 2-3 seconds before engaging reverse, technical note from Skoda, the shaft takes time to slow down. Always worth adjusting the gear cables too since you had a new box, easy enough to do.
  12. I'd be a lot more concerned about the transmission service on the vehicle than anything on a vehicle that old.
  13. AC drain is usually in that area, if all your levels under the bonnet are good then I wouldn't worry about it 👌
  14. I would stay away from ridex tbh, stick to something like mann, mahle, Bosch etc something you have hears of for a while. Most of the aftermarket say they are OEM and ok to use for warranty but I wouldn't trust them. The dealer oil filter is only around 6 or 7 quid max so no reason to go for a cheaper one imo. Vag have used different manufacturers for a while, Bosch, mahle, mann, hengst, fram etc.
  15. Yes if you have a drive mode button and put it onto individual you can set air con to normal or eco. Also the plug A on the condenser can be faulty from factory so there is and update for plug and seals.
  16. Go to settings and click wlan and set up a network, you can use your phone as a hotspot but might need to manually add the settings.
  17. Can try not share the wheel tyre comparison site? Im looking to change from 205/55/16 to 235/35/19 thanks.
  18. Have you got wlan enabled and a good connection?
  19. Mine are peeling slightly, just going to leave them for the time being no issues yet. What sort of noise do they make?
  20. Have you tried putting a jump lead from the body to engine/gearbox? This could help tell you if you have a bad earth/ground issue somewhere.
  21. Any idea what the difference is on the modified arm rear bushes?
  22. You may not need it, I did mine few weeks ago they came straight out.
  23. Are you sure the new parts are correct and any chance you have put the friction disc in the wrong way?
  24. I'm thinking of removing the arch liners and fitting some dodomat to the underwing areas to see if it helps at all.
