  1. Technician @ Liverpool Skoda has told me and I quote " Regeneration will only take place if there is more than 11 litres of fuel in the tank " I will investigate this further and report back in a short while. :think:
  2. +1 Works a treat but not too much otherwise streaks like mad. Works on the door seal and keeps them supple ; )
  3. I am running a set of 12 month old Lidl flat wiper blades very similar to the Bosch ones and reasonable price rather than going to halfrauds or stealers for genuine . £12.00 a pair if I am right.
  4. Ironic that is a vw badge surprised you kept it in or do we like winding up vag owners (badge snobbery) loving the inserts I went for the dark wood insert as the silver was likely to scratch and show crappy black plastic after a few months ; )
  5. In fact the mission L is a new breed but there is a new octy out modeled off the Audi A6 next year which is bigger and better and should come with high end spec that you only see in high line I think
  6. I tend to stick to two now just shell and texaco but since using texaco I have noticed exhaust tip have become cleaner.(scratch head!) but have to admit been to supermarket outlets but only on the dregs in the tank only to put a fiver to get me to a shell . A lot can be psychological in my mind but used to run a 13 yr old 306 on shell and redex diesel and found mot soot test result come down by half over three years even my mechanic said it didn't sound like a John deer tractor like most do or smoke like an old chuffer. Each to their own but should put a poll on to see if the big two are winners. (BP , SHELL)
  7. I have to agree with all you said, unfortunately there are the t£@@s who decide that your car is better than theirs so they decide to put a few go faster scratches on. My mate drives a superb and has said when we go for pub lunch about my parking!!! He calls it dad parking. In a secluded area of the car park you will find my car lol. Only thing is buy new trainers you will step in dog sh1! Sooner or later unless of course you never venture out. I too get vexed by all the dings and scrapes seeing as you mulled over spec , colour and engine size for considerable time. I ride a triumph motorcycle and god help anyone who touches it but I suppose it is a bug bearer when you have something nice some people have no consideration or are just plain jealous about what you have!
  8. Just to throw a spanner in the works I prefer the newer estate style as the clear section appears as If it has two indicators in it unlike mine which only has the top section going amber. As far as the 2nd rear fog stick with it boys I'm sure you will crack it (I'm hoping you sort it as I am anxiously waiting)
  9. Bit of a dodgy subject but would think if you can source a second hand squab I would try asking a dry cleaners to see if they can clean the fabric??? If you can get the covering off with damaging it and are confident in reattaching it ask your local dry cleaners for a quote should be a fair bit cheaper I suspect!.....goodluck
  10. Which face lifts can activate 2nd rear fog as I would love to have that done on mine
  11. You could always turn front fogs on via sidelights as it gives a better view of the road and least your not having to mess with finding dip on the switch
  12. +1 For rain x , plus get the heko deflectors they do work plus look really stylish . Had the same problem in my old pug 306 when car was driven off with drivers window down used to get soaked
