HI , MY NAME IS STUART AND I HAVE OWNED SKODA'S ON AND OFF ALL MY DRIVING LIFE , MY FIRST IN 1987 WAS A EX RALLY CAR 1978 SKODA ESTELLE WHICH REALLY GAVE ME THE BUG, THEN I HAD A COUPLE MORE ESTELLE'S BEFORE A RAPID 136 . I HAD A FAVORITE IN THE MID 90'S AND AN EARLY OCTAVIA IN 2003 . I CURRENTLY DRIVE A JAGUAR XF BUT I AM LOOKING AT A SUPERB 4X4 EARLY NEXT YEAR FOR TOWING AND ALSO MY SON HAS A OCTAVIA VRS DIESEL ESTATE . I WOULD LIKE THE THANK YOU FOR ACCEPTING ME ON THE FORUM .

HI ALL, I AM NEW TO THE BRISKODA FORUM BUT NOT NEW TO SKODA , ( SORRY I SHOULD HAVE INTRODUCED MYSELF FIRST WILL DO STRAIGHT AFTER POSTING THIS ) MY SON BOUGHT A SKODA OCTAVIA 2018 , 18 PLATE VRS ESTATE WITH 144000 MILES , AND ALL WAS WELL FOR 9 WEEKS UNTIL A ELDERLY LADY DECIDES TO RUN INTO IT WHILE IT WAS PARKED OUTSIDE MY SONS HOUSE. ANYWAY LONG STORY SHORT THE CAR WAS WRITTEN OFF CAT S , AND PAID OUT BUT HE BOUGHT IT BACK FOR VERY LITTLE MONEY AND HAD IT REPAIRED PROPERLY AT A PROPER BODYSHOP AND THEN FULL MOT WHICH IT PASSED WITH FLYING COLOURS , NO ADVISORIES . THE PROBLEM IS WHEN HE COLLECTED THE CAR AND STARTED DRIVING HOME IT WILL ONLY GO TO ABOUT 20MPH, NO LIGHTS ON DASH ETC , ENGINE STILL SOUNDS SWEET BUT ABOUT 20 IT AS FAST AS IT WILL GO , I HAVE AN AUTEL READER AND PLUGGED IT IN BUT NOT BRINGING ANY CODES UP . DOES ANYBODY KNOW IF THERE IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS RESETTING AFTER A SHUNT , IT WAS HIT O/S REAR DOOR / REAR QUARTER / AXLE . ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED .
