  1. How To Start an Octavia MK2 via the starter solenoid

    ChrisLyon posted a topic in Skoda Octavia Mk2 (2004 - 2013)
    My my Octavia mk2 - 1.6ltr MPI will not start due to a “clutch not depressed problem”. I need to start it some how, to get it to the garage. On a previous occasion an AA man managed to start it using a probe/wire connected directly to the battery. I assumed he used it to energise the starter motor solenoid. However, he managed to do it without removing the solenoid terminal connector, which seems impossible to remove. Any ideas on how I could do the same thing please?
