So i'm thinking of coming back to the Skoda fold
Been looking at MK1's and seen this yellow banana
http://www.rivelinmotorcompany.co.uk/used-cars/skoda-octavia-1-8t-rs-5dr-sheffield-201403242776140
I have been searching about for MK1 issues to look for and check
Could anyone give advice?

For the fixed users, i used the Fuchs in mine and noticed zero oil consumption.

RARB, then shocks and springs.

Some better grease. The supplied stuff in the sachets is ****e and only lasted a few weeks.
Totally agree mine used to squeak like a whores wooden bed it was awful.
Best addition you can buy for the car.

Exactly, wax isnt going to stop rust, you need to prep it first get rid of the rust then acid etch primer several coats, then the paint colour several coats then a clear lacquer several coats.

Nice, shame we had to wait 4 months for it! :-(
Totally agree mate, usual though with Google these days.

I have a Ringke Fusion terrible case.

I have a TX-P50G20B had it 4 years i dont see me changing it for another 4-5 years, a Panasonic cinema kit is hooked up to it, i also have a 32inch panasonic LCD in the room.
Highly recommend a panasonic TV.

Not sure on weekly maybe prevention is better than cure but i do it every few months, and i use a sandisk card.
-
Sandisk, had mega issues with the pittasoft one and a cheap one, buy a really good class 10 brand, i use sandisk my self, but as BossFox says it randomly needs a format every once and a while.

B6's aren't an equivalent OEM shock, as said its B4, B6's are far stiffer with a better rebound.
I had B6's with Eibach pro's the lowest spring Bilstein recommend what a combo it was, wasnt silly low looked fairly OEM but the handling was incredible, if your looking to go lower then B8's
As previously mentioned if you're after a kit then a B12 pro or sport line is your best option.
B4's are a pretty decent OEM shock my brother in law has them on his Signum (terrible car overall i may add lol)

You need a leather cleaner then a protector.

you could pick up a 1.8 TSI in L&K spec for around £11-£12k on an 11 plate.

I think a new intake is the answer buddy, if i mind right.
-
Neither save your cash IMO, unless your running big power then a CAI but even then i have my judgments on them.
-
Lower it properly by doing springs and shocks though

IIRC they're pretty harsh on the discs.
yeh they are, i found Mintex discs fairly cheap for about £80.

Come up for a year and 12k fronts are 5mm rears are 7mm
Overall great tyres although on a different car, not as great in the wet as the 2's at hit standing water, the 2's never once flinched, 3's are a tad bum clenching.
