  1. hello, Im interested in the car if the sale falls through. PM me details if you are interested.
  2. Hi there I keep getting the engine management light coming on. Someone has said that it could be one of 2 sensors doing this. One being for the engine temp and the other to do with the air fuel mix. I am sure it cant be the engine temp as it sits where it always does but was thinking it could be the other one, Is there a guide on here for how to change it out and also best place to fine a new one? Thanks for looking, Paul

  15. Hello everyone and thanks for taking the time to read this, I am looking for the cheapest place to buy a new rear window wiper motor for my octavia 2003 salon? Also if anyone has a part number that would be great. Thanks everyone.
  16. Iv had a few different cars now and i have to say the VRS is the most fun to drive simply because people look at it and don't really know what it is! Every person i give a shot of my car to love it and the reviews online rate it better to drive than most hot hatches. The reason i have the car though is i can get 3 sets of golf clubs in the boot or my snowboarding gear etc and fill it full of people.
  17. Im in fife in sunny Scotland. So near edin and glasgow :wonder:
  18. Hello everybody, I have been quoted £495 for a remap from a local tuning center, does this sound like a good price? Also i was thinking of putting a new exhaust on my car what is the best value for money one out there? (I don't want one of those loud ones ether) :p
  19. I have a problem with going from 2nd to 1st gear unless the car is just about at a standstill. It is the only problem with gears i have and the garage say they will have to strip down the gear box and re-build it at a cost of 600 quid! Does anyone know anthing else this could be as it only happens some times and only when doing about 5mph?
