Outside of LED lights all the rest was standard unless I am losing it! Equipment highlights for the new vRS models include sport seats and upholstery, full LED headlights, Performance mode selection and a super sport 3-spoke leather multifunction steering wheel with vRS logo and paddles for DSG models.

Are these mods like the auto lights something anyone with a VRS can do?

Thank you lads. Is the glass hard to put in, I'm lost without it and I'm on the road 3 hours a day and its dangerous without it.

Folks Got my wing mirror clipped on street last night. I've a 2015 VRS with black pack, so the mirror is black. The motor works, but the glass and back and indicator is smashed. Do you guys think I need a full unit or can you buy sub assembly? IF I need a new unit then could I fit it easily myself. Any idea of a price or where I could buy cheaper, I am sure the garage will be expensive. Many thanks Aidan

Umm, so might be better to hold out then until next year.

Hi All Owner of a 2015 VRS, I put up a good few miles on it and have 45,000 now after 14 months. Was playing with the idea of changing as the 0% interest is out again, but I can find no appeal as its swapping really for a car which is identical, OR have I missed any major changes in the 12 months. When is the next big change coming through even? Many thanks

Its due a service in another couple thousand KMs so I will mention it. Thanks

I dont have access no, hard got? Has this been reported in the new models, find it very strange for a car only 13 months old to suffer from this. It happened coming to work again, on flats.

Hey All, 13 month old VRS, 2.0 diesel. Car has 44,000 kms. When driving, and this is not getting regular, its like as if the engine takes a breath, this could happen 3 or 4 times over a 1 hour journey. Its just a very strange issue, would have thought bad fuel but I have changed the providers a few times and no change. Happening now for last 4 or 5 months. So its like as if they car takes a big breath, doesn't lose power, but then it just pushes on then again. Thanks

Same as, on the front left. Same pain in the ass, had it on the last car too!

Turned out to be the exhaust sensor. Fair play to Dave in Sheehys in Naas, as always looks after his customers. Also though I tip my cap to the service provided by Padraic in Monaghans in Castlebar. Looked after me very well.

Sorry yes there was nothing confirmed as to what it was. Mechanics dont work Saturdays. It will be interesting to see what it is.

Thanks but they will not be charging me for these. Since when do glow plugs go in a 10 month old car! In fairness to the guys I bought the car off they got back quick with a car arranged for me. I have it dropped to the local Skoda dealer and it will be looked at on Monday.

Okay thanks. I'm going to do that. Many thanks Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

2015 VRS 2.0, bought April last year, Driving home tonight I got the flashing glow plug, limp mode, so been the owner of a Mondeo ST where the EGR valve killed me, this wasn't new!!! I restarted the car, got 5 clear minutes and the same again. Then another 20 minutes later I got the engine management light!! :( Where would lads start with this? Dealer where I bought it is 3 hours away, I had a 30,000 km service last week, there is a dealer 10 minutes away. I drive every day for over 3 hours to and from work so I am BADLY stuck. Advice appreciated. I'm BADLY p(ssed off.

Only have sound down after a call comes in. Thankfully no other issues

Looks like I never entered my car on this! Bought March 2015 - Blue - vRS, Hatchback, Bi-Xenon, Red Interior, Black Pack, Sunset Glass, Intelligent Park Assist, Intelligent Headlight Assistance, Heated Front Seats, Cruise Control. On 2nd set of tires and 22500 kms

True, good few Octavia III around me here anyway.

I;m departing the Octavia II grounds lads and have moved to the Octavia III

That was something I was wondering, could I have asked about red.... no I'm kidding! What I was wondering is this normal, never bought a brand new car before

They had a personal message as well! And the umbrella, 1/2 tank of diesel, bottle of white wine and box of chocolates.

Picked mine today! WOW, SOOOO happy with it. Had a 2013 but the Mark 3 is nice to look at and drive without a doubt.

Cheers lads, I have a 200km trip home on mostly motorway.... having to drive it like a granny in a pram!

Hi I had a google for this, but couldn't find an answer! I'm picking my new motor tomorrow, but have never owned a spanking new car before. What is the break-in mileage (kms) for a brand new VRS before you can give it a good drive! Or is there one! Many thanks

I was thinking they were the 19" That's interesting re the glass. I have the same ordered but wasn't sure how dark. Looks very well. Safe driving.
