Check the oil level regularly.The TFSI motor is notorious for its high oil consumption. -

When talking about the KYBs,are you gentlemen referring to the Ultra SRs? -
1.8 Engine - at what "age" are these engines OK?
greek 5vrs replied to Stubod's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Opt for the BZB.Avoid the CDAA.Extremely high oil consumption. -
It is normal that there should be oil in the i/c and the d/v. What condition is the pcv valve in?Is there oil all around it?

Are you absolutely sure that it isn't the jumbo box that's creaking?

All-weather tyres are a big compromise.There's no tyre which can provide excellent grip all year round.One has to go for dedicated summer or winter tyres depending on the season.

Good stuff.This is what I filled my box with last week.Paid 8 euro a bottle.The ebay seller is way too expensive. -
It depends on how low you're planning on going.I have a 2.5 cm drop on OEM drop links.

Noises on startup from used 1.2TSI. Normal?

Timing chain tensioner?Not cheap. -
I would strongly advise against buying Spax.Defective rear dampers.Changed them twice.Running FK in the back now.No problems.
