Hi guys. Hoping to find someone with ODB Eleven who can help me with some coding for my ID4 that's due to be delivered soon. From Lancashire, but can travel to Yorkshire or North East. Thanks!

Given you've opted for higher monthlies and a lower initial payment, I don't think you'll see too much difference.

That's belting, already! -

There are a few on here who I'm sure reply with some sound recommendations of the engine. I'm awaiting mine...! Ordered without even trying it, I'm that confident. By all accounts, the engine is definitely suited to a DSG box and seems to return 50mpg - of course, figures are all subjective but I think you would definitely find an improvement on what you're getting currently. When I was comparing performance wise between the 1.0 and the 1.6 TDi, it was negligible. Obviously the diesel will return better mpg figures, but it's also 10p a litre more expensive at the pumps (at least where I am). Good luck! -
Ask them what the warranty procedure is? 3 times they've tried to fix it and to no avail, don't see why you should have to keep taking it back for repeated visits.

Octavia 1.0tsi SE Tech - Experiences?
dogdiego replied to zeddicus's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
You know you mentioned sport mode... is that available to select then? Eco, sport, normal etc. Didn't know whether drive mode select came on the 1.0 engine. -

What colour do the bulbs look - are they cold or quite warm? -
PCP / Leasing deals right now
dogdiego replied to Mewcenary's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
If you're going PCP then I'd suggest putting your details in Carwow and Drivethedeal. Otherwise, if PCH check out Leasing.com, Leasehub, Carleasingonline. Parkers used to be good but for some reason they've used a 3rd party to supply lease deals and its atrocious. Whatcar also have a leasing section just for main dealers to post up. And ultimately, lead times are loooong at the minute. I did see a few PCP deals on nearly new SE Tech's (I was looking for pictures of what mine would look like) and I honestly couldn't believe the price difference. They were £300+ a month, when there around £200 a month for a brand new lease (on a 1+23 deal for example). I would ring a few dealers and leave your details with the PCH teams to ask if you could grab any cancelled orders etc if you're not fussy about colour etc. I ordered my 1.0 SE Tech Estate DSG through Bristol Street Motors / Vertu motors. £200 a month on a 1+23. Highly recommended if you do end up going down that route. Good luck! -

Great to see you've picked it up, looks very nice in red! S/S sounds a royal pain in the arse, so that will be getting turned off immediately when I get mine. If you get chance as well, can you take a photo of the lights in the dark? Thanks mate. Enjoy it! -
It doesn't show on my Peugeot (glaring omission IMO) but not sure about Skoda/VAG group in general.

I definitely need to see where I'm going as well as hear it. Also Spotify on AA lets you choose playlists etc rather than using your phone.

As long as you're under the magical 25% figure... Under 20% even better. These are a legit brokers as well, a few people have ordered from them on pistonheads so don't think there's anything worry about in that respect.
