  1. Is there any way of getting the Columbus head unit in my L&G Octy to have the TV tuner they have in the superb?
  2. it had the TV tuner like you got in the L&K MK3 Superb. It's almost bothering me enough to think about swapping (although Octavia boot is more than big enough for me). Is this something you really appreciate or something you don't use that often. My one concern would be parking up and watching TV for a few hours and then the car not starting. Is battery drain a problem? Is it possible to upgrade the Columbus in the Octy to get a tuner. And is the aerial in the front windscreen noticeable?
  3. Can any one help with this part number. Are they easy to replace?
  4. Intermittent wipers don't do anything on any setting. Could this be something to do with windscreen being replaced?
  5. These jet washers are very expensive. Is there anyone who knows where to get them a bit cheaper?
  6. Surely mine is not the only mk 3 in the country with a rattle
  7. I've got something that sounds like an angry wasp to the rh side of dashboard. I'd love to get it fixed. I replaced the satnav it came with for the bigger version. Don't know if this caused the problem Also getting the workshop error issue which I believe is something to do with the microwitch in the DSG gear selector. The thing is it's only beeping very infrequently. Is it worth getting this fixed at the same time as the rattle? It could be that the workshop error gets no worse than beeping a few times a month
  8. It's a 1.8 tsi Skoda Octavia mk 3 pre-facelift. I change the oil every 7.5k miles
  9. Had car serviced and they've put in ap-l 0w-30 rather than av-l. If the ap-l doesn't meet the VW 502 00 standard would you change it for the av-l or is it unlikely to make any difference?
  10. WOT blast through?
  11. I know both engines have turbos and that with turbo engines you need to keep pumping oil after the engine is switched off but I never heard the pump kick in on my 1.4 tsi Am I miss remembering?
  12. Hi everyday when I get on the motorway the distance has reset to minimum even though the previous day it was set near maximum. Does it reset for everyone? Can I make it retain previous setting? Thanks
  13. I was drafting at 55-60 mph and eco mode on the downhill sections
  14. I got 58.5 mpg on the M6 in my 1.8 tsi I was happy with that
  15. Does anyone know how long the car needs to be left alone before the distance driven resets to zero
  16. Official gearknob is £230
  17. Is this easy to remove? I want a cheap gear knob but can't find one with L&K text. Hoping to buy the plaquette separately and swap over
  18. Thanks guys - Changed the AVRCP to 1.4 and it started working again. Strange thing is I changed it back to 1.6 version and it continued working
  19. Music plays fine over bluetooth but when I phone anyone it soulds like Dr Who's arch nemesis
  20. The 1.8 is 2015, the 1.4 was 2016. Both euro 6
  21. I have the 1.8 tsi 7 speed dry DSG. I've found this car disengages from eco mode a lot earlier than my 1.4 used to
  22. When I'm coasting downhill in gear with the car in eco mode with the eco symbol lit up then the computer says I'm using 0 petrol. When the car slows down it kicks into gear and the eco mode symbol goes off - but the computer still shows I'm using 0 petrol. So what is the point of eco mode?
  23. It's the chrome on the lever that is flaking away
