Depends where you are in Sussex. I use Camspec in Crawley for servicing and Wheel Works are in the same road. Had my fabia wheels repaired and re-coloured by WW and they were great.

Here are my Superskoda bonnet lifters fitted. They are the first few photos on my stream: https://www.flickr.com/photos/7702970@N08/

Yes I have fitted them both. I undercoated, painted and lacquered both main brackets and the smaller ones before fitting. With both fitted you need to use both hands when closing the bonnet but I feel that having both struts there is more support when the bonnet is up.I had Devontopias lifter fitted to my Fab vRS and these are just as good. We'll worth it in my opinion. I will post some pictures if you want.

I am well aware that some people have had a bad experience with Superskoda but i just need to say that i have just looked back and it turns out i have ordered over 15 times from them and i have never had a problem. I know it can just be the "luck of the draw" but all has gone totally fine for me when ordering.

I generally have a browse on Superskoda just to make sure there is something I haven't already bought !!

There is now an install video on their site or here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_N1d9xp1-Q&feature=youtu.be I have ordered the kit so you can remove me from this group buy. Thanks Chris

Hi All, Can anyone confirm the Bosch part number for the rear windscreen wiper blade for a MK2 FL Octy? I have it down as a Bosch A400H and would like confirmation before I start buying on-line. Thanks

Resurrecting a bloomin old thread (hey, why not) Can anyone recommend a decent tyre pressure gauge. I have been looking at something like this http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/tyre-pressure-gauges/longacre-standard-digital-tyre-pressure-gauge-2-inch-2 Yes I know its probably a lot for a gauge but I want it to be accurate and clear/easy to use. Any other recommendations ??

I had to slam my brakes on at a set of traffic lights so i sat there with the hazards flashing (advertising the fact the i was not paying attention ) So basically i either have to move off or use the hazard switch to deactivate them?

I couldn't find another setting anywhere. If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great.

Hi All, While doing some emergency braking the other day (keep your eyes on the road folks) i realised that the hazard warning lights were active for what seemed like ages. It was a blooming pain and i want to switch this off if i can. I have had a look with VCDS and the box under "Emergency Brake Flashing via Turn Signals active" is definitely un-ticked !! Is this where i should be looking or is it located somewhere else. Ta

I have this grill fitted to my Vrs. I didn't re-fit the badge at the time as i think the backplate of the badge needed the "vertical lines" of the original grill (if that makes sense).

I bought mine from a member on here called rcaero. They are exactly the same shape as the ones listed above, from ali express, except they are plain black. They fit perfectly and do the job they are supposed to.

"These leds posted from BigNick are completely safe and I believe they'll last for years, so I think it's totally unnecessary to scare other people who might want to buy these..." Thats all very well you saying that but this http://www.atomcentral.com/atomic-explosions.aspx#!prettyPhoto/1/ was a result of using LEDs........ (that was xpower using his rear LEDs for the first time)

It might be an idea for someone to buy just one of these and see if they are any good. I don't mind getting one at the pre-order price to see if its actually better than the photos that Superskoda have put up. I am guessing that the brackets have to be there to strengthen the bonnet and move the pivot point so the gas struts work correctly

Thats weird....no where in the advert does it say it has been ragged senseless on the way to jobs etc....strange :think:

I am glad there seems to be quite a few good Skoda dealers out there judging by the comments....its a pity the 2 dealers nearest to me are a bunch of t@#£*rs !! The first service on my Blackline was done at an independent VW specialist and i wouldnt go anywhere else (have done for years when i had my Fab vRS). Not as cheap as a dealer for servicing but i know damn well they do a better job !! Rant over. ps i wouldnt expect anything outside of a warranty though even if i did get the servicing done at a dealer.

Pictures Brimma.....pictures !!!

Not meant to cause anyone any anguish with this post but i used to work for one of the main hire car companies and the cars were never serviced as they used to be sold on before the "1st service" was needed. They were also never driven carefully by the staff or customers. If it was me i would try to return it to the dealer as i think there is a case for it being mis-sold !!

Have you got a link to the download ?

If i am looking at the correct car, silver estate - YK13 PYD, then it is listed as an Octavia VRS TDI CR registered on 7/3/2013. It is not a Blackline.

I have three clips on the join in the centre (top, middle and bottom) and i have three clips on either side. This seems to keep it in place all the time and i have never had any problems. I originally lost one clip and contacted the seller and he sent through a whole bag of them
