  1. I've had this for a while but totally forgot about it, as I already jack my car where the document says to. But some recent threads have reminded me to post it up, and answer the age old query of where exactly do I jack my Mk1 Octavia. This is taken from the official Skoda workshop documentation. Someone might want to make this a sticky or something...... Raise vehicle Raise vehicle with a lift platform and a workshop jack. The arms of the lift platform must be positioned under the frame side rail. WARNING -Under no circumstances may the arms of the lift platform or jack be positioned under the sill, the engine, the gearbox, the front or rear axles. -It must only be raised with a workshop jack at the indicated jacking points arrows. -To avoid damage use a suitable rubber or wood insert. Jacking up points at front Both jacking up points at front are located on both front frame side rails at the height of the marking on the sill. WARNING -Never start the engine or engage a gear when the vehicle is raised, while even one driving wheel is still in contact with the ground. -It is important to support the vehicle with suitable supporting blocks if you wish to work under the vehicle. Rear jacking up points Both rear jacking up points are located on both front frame side rails at the height of the marking on the sill.
