I don't know how you'll fit a roof box on the car... I've got trouble fitting the kayaks, never mind getting the tent in the car!
-
I've e-mailed them so I'll see what comes back..if its not favourable then it'll be all over the forums EDIT : Oops...Looks like I'm too late. September 19th it is so. I vote we add a cinder block to gaff's kart this year...Just to keep him driving at our speeds :P

What about here : New Page 1 We've done Midlands a few times now, how about a change in venue?

Hi all, Just had the local Skoda dealership offer them up to the car. The carriers bolt straight on but the discs (I have 2 sets) are rubbing on the caliper forceing it at an angle. Has anyone upgraded to a set of r32 front 2 pot brakes? I was recommended to get the discs machined smaller by approximately 4mm
-
Thanks guys, I've managed to get my hands on the mk4 R32 calipers, discs and pads. Anyone recommend any particular brake pad for them?
-
Hi all, I'm thinking of upgrading the front brakes on the hearse to mk4 R32 ones. Does anyone know is it hard to do... do the carriers bolt on? Would I need anything special to do the job?

PowerBulbs Power Plus H4 50% more light
bpm replied to matt_theforce's topic in Handy Topics & Guides
I'm going to give these a go. I just went back to Halogen from HIDs as the halogen gave a better throughput of light, but they're aweflul yellow now. Hopefully these will give better light and be a little whiter -
Hi all, A work collegue asked me to take a look at his superb and the following faults showed up : Address 08: Auto HVAC Labels: 3U0-907-044.lbl Part No: 3U0 907 044 A Component: CLIMATRONIC S B5 C 2004 Coding: 17000 Shop #: WSC 00028 3 Faults Found: 00603 - Footwell/defroster Flap Positioning Motor (V85) 37-00 - Faulty 01271 - Positioning Motor for Temperature Flap (V68) 37-00 - Faulty 01274 - Air Flow Flap Positioning Motor (V71) 37-10 - Faulty - Intermittent Can anyone tell me where to find this so that I can replace it?
-
Ah nuts. Isn't that the hard one to get at?
-
wow....exactly the same thing happened to mine about 3 weeks ago! I'm just glad the dealer had one on the shelf for me to pick up! Now the obvious question.... I presume its some sort of breather pipe? (I'm asking as I'm too lazy to find it in the Haynes manual)..
-
oh he has... Congrats Walter. I should really spool up my GPU now.

Whats the range of differences between this and a normal vRS ? I can see the leather seats, alloys, steering wheel and the addition of a new colour..

Hi all, I've discovered that when I open up the boot lid, the "door open" symbol on the dash doesn't work anymore and consquently the alarm re-arms itself with 30 seconds (the safety feature to combat false button presses). The car is showing up no fault codes related to this, so i can only think its a short on a wire somewhere. (The fuses are all working and test ok). Anyone know how to best go about checking this?

Transmission Noise - Wheel bearing
bpm replied to billhill's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
I have something similar. It sounds similar to KITT's (from original Knight Rider) engine sound and started happening very pronounced when i swapped the tires from the back to the front recently. -
No I'm in the same boat... The first fins I broke were the result of an aluminium pole being poked into the car from the boot and went a little too far... Now they're breaking one at a time. I tend to leave them open in the same position so they don't look broken. The price sounds right...

oops! Missed that entry on the routing table. Right, I wonder if the PC is using the 192.168.3.5 interface as a source? Can you add a route to the .129 router for the 192.168.3.5 host and point it at the 10.64.1.129 IP ? this would be a quick way of seeing if this is the case.

cathalb on this website has had them remap his Octy vRS mk2 and having been a passenger in it, it is a good map giving a good power delivery.
-
Right, your problem is that you have a /8 ( 255.0.0.0) subnet mask on the 10.64.x.y network. This means that the server will always look locally for the 10.1.0.0/16 network and never to the router, so no matter what your routing table tells you, the /8 mask always takes precedence. Is the subnet mask on the 10.64 network correct? If the Solaris machine works, I'd say that it has a different subnet mask on it, more than likely a /16. Hope this helps Manny

Help! Custom fit components Octy Mk1
bpm replied to irmscher2007's topic in Audio, Electronics and Security
I have to agree here. get some spade connectors and plug into the original wiring, no need to cut them. Also pick yourself up a multimetre, it'll show you which is the positive connector if you have lost it! The crackling is going to be a little harder to troubleshoot.... As all the other speakers have the cackling, do this happen with the radio set on CD or just radio, or both? It could be a short in the new speakers causing the amplifier to try to compensate, affecting the rest of the speakers. The best test is to unplug the new speakers one at a time to try see which one is causing it. Can you had the radio out of the dash? If so it could also be a loose connection at the rear of the unit. Hope this helps -
"Stuff" :P I'm getting the remap tweaked while i'm over there.

Can't make this one I'm afraid as I'll be on the Irish sea heading towards Jabbasport...
