Have them aswell, 77k klms on car and on second set with plenty rubber left. Was in a very wet mucky field few weeks ago and they got me up a slight incline with 6 people on board. Very impressed. I would like to get a wider tyre for the rear to beef up the look from the back. I think the original are a bit too much tucked in under the arches.

Does it have a proper twin exhaust or is it a fraud like my vrs octavia?

I'm having a similar problem to the one described by Grant above. Mine is a '06 2.0T fsi vrs. It has the stutter/misfire at 2/2.5k rpm. Just serviced it with new plugs so it aint them. Any suggestions ?

Passenger seat on mine doesn't get as hot as the drivers seat!

Have a '06 VRS and find the road noise fairly bad. Have federal tyres which were a freebe from the dealer so was hoping if i changed them it would get better. But there's a few complaints on here using different tyres so not sure, Apart from stripping out the car to sound proof it is there any other options?

Have you sorted your probs Phil ? Miss fire was probably fuel pump.

Cheers guys, Sounds like a bit of messing around just to get the leds working. The standard 5w bulbs don't look too bad after all !!

Tried to fit some led's to the park lights on theoctavia and they won't work. A mate said its something to do with the new type loom. Is there anyway to get them to work?

Cheers Stu, My cossie is running 29psi of boost so there's plenty of noise out of that yoke. Love driving the Octavia after being in the cossie. So much more refined and comfy. Would hate to ruin the drive in it with dump valve hissing etc. i'll prob go with a local tuner here who'll bring it upto 240brake. Should be ok with that.

Think I'll give the optimistic "75 brake" upgrade a skip then. Is the revised DV recirculating? Not really into the hissing noise.

Impressive figures there alright. They mention nothing about hardware just a file upgrade for the ecu. I was sceptical alright because most local tuners are giving increases of 30hp with a remap. Celtic tuning are giving 75bhp!! Got a remap from them for my 1.9tdi van and TBH not too happy with it. Fookin fly wheel rattles mad under load around 2k rpm. Think i'll have to put it back standard.

Hi all, Looking to get my '06 vRS remapped and just wondering whats the best option. Celtic Tuning do an e motion kit which brings the power up to 275bhp,Anyone had this done?
