Hi, thanks. It's either an ALH or AGR engine. The EGR sits at the top at the back I'll check those pipes, seems a sensible place to start. The EGR itself was replaced a few years ago, but maybe an old diesel engine clogs it up quickly!

Hi, So my car is an old 2004 1.9 tdi Octavia, 180k miles on the clock. The engine light came on and I read the code - PO401 - EGR flow insufficient detected. I cleared the code/light but it came on again about a mile later. This was from a cold start. When the engine was up to temp, I cleared it again and the light/code did not reaper (I drove about 100 miles which may or may not have been the thing to do!). But still no light. The next day it did the same. So it seems it's getting the fault when cold, but when warm everything is OK. Any ideas what I should look at first? All I've tried so far is a can of the EGR cleaner you spray up the air intake pipe. Thanks for any help! Alan

Hi rk696, That would be great - it's the drivers side I really need. I will message you.

Nothing on eBay sadly. I'll look for Golf arms instead. Thanks for the advice.

Hi! Has anyone out there got a pair of Mk1 Octavia wiper arms they'd like to sell? Particularly the drivers side. The splines on mine have smoothed out and the arm doesn't grip on the wiper mechanism any more. Can't get them from Skoda anymore. HELP!! Thanks! Alan
