What sort of Ron fuel are you using? I'd have expected 40mpg+ on that engine.

I understand. It's perfectly doable as a DIY job but there's always the peace of mind getting it done at a dealer or specialist.

Sounds a bit pricey I just do it myself and save £400-£800 😁

I'm sure you can shim the box to remove play on that model, also has a few drain holes and a set procedure for draining and filling. Can only be don't by draining and refilling the box as the oil level is above the filler hole. You refill from reverse switch.

Seems my tank has the later cap already fitted, what's the chance it has no bag in the tank too?

Never know if they have been messed with unfortunately.

Get VCDS on it to start with, sounds like a dodgy sensor

Common sense, I have in the past turned off the pad wear light on cars with VCDS due to the wiring being broken. Sometimes the pads without wear sensors are actually more expensive as they aren't as common.

I have a hex+can cable but not sure it will work with my 2020 Octavia so am looking to invest in something else.

Definitely. I assume the system has not been flushed properly, to do it properly you would need to do it multiple times. With main dealer garages being on bonus schemes stuff like this usually happens cutting corners to achieve bonus.

Yeah I will use genuine oil, if I feel like I am topping up to much I will swap to 0w/30 see how it goes. I think it's the later DCPA engine in my car.

If coolant has mixed with other type it can turn a brown colour. Is it said to not cause a problem.

Yeah I like to keep the engine around max torque so 1400-1500 minimum so I'll drop a gear so it's under less load.

Thans id rather buy the original tank and cap too, must be some reason why they have realised the part.

I don't suppose you have a part number for the reservoir without the bag?

So do you need the engine cover?

Is it an ex Arnold Clark? I find anything from Scotland or Arnold Clarke are the worst 😢

There are many places can repair them, unless you just want a good used or new one.

I was very surprised when I first drove the tsi engines. All the smaller ones were amazingly smooth and very quiet also fuel efficient.

I was going to buy some from China maybe next month. I'll let you know.

Check the ECU plugs, if you really want to be scared search up coolant migration.

Have you seen them leather style floor covers? Covers the whole floor and carpets, also the boot area.

Like brand new

Can you change the distance on the assist the same as the ACC?

Hello since the Octavia is over 10 years old now are there any common places for corrosion? I'd like to get some protection in place to prevent any problems later in the cars life.
