Well, as uncle Boris said I cant go anywhere I thought I would give it a full clean and polish, and whilst I am at it add some styling to headlights and VRS stripes.

As said previously.. the best bio weapon is not one that kills a small area quickly.. its one that incapacitates a population slowly.. it decimates the economy and the country's ability to defend itself.. its also easier to explain a pandemic than it is a nuclear, chemical or biological explosion.

So if this did originate in the meat markets of china, in live or uncooked food stuffs, then when will the world stop eatung raw or live animals and what sanctions will be imposed on China as a result of this?

Thanks for the reminder about not discussing Non OEM, but as I said I am new to VCDS and OBD and have no idea what an OEM is or how to recognise one.

Is this any use to anyone? Only just started looking at VCDS and OBD2 in general, so still not too sure. But I do know that a markdown from $600 to $77 seems too good to be true. It wont work on a mk3 Octavia, but says it works on prev versions. [Link Removed]

Fitted a Nextbase 422GW to the wife Fabia and a 522GW to the VRS using these along with rear cameras.. Both were really easy and had no issues. Fitted them both to the 12V socket as a piggy back and no issues (unless you count getting the VRS glove box out and back in). They both stay on a short time and then use the motion sensors to come back on should someone hit my car whilst parked. With the fabia having a smaller engine and therefore a smaller battery, I thought the same that this would kill the battery - but it's using very low power and I've had no issues so far, in fact her fabia didn't move from 24th Dec till today (31st Dec) and it turned over nicely. If you need any advice - feel free to PM me.

Same here - after buyng VW stuff twice, I then changed to VW compatible, now I just pick up some blue stuff in a 5l bottle which costs about a fiver - never had an issue.

I hace installed ODBEleven to see what it can do, used my VIN to lookup my car and hey presto its there with all the mods I can do. Although some of the mods are not that intuitive in what they do, this means I would need to credits to enable them and then use credits to revert them. Most of the mods are enabled on the VRS 245, so does ODB Eleven do anything else?

Took delivery of my 245 Challenge on 19th Dec and I didn't even know about this (not read the manual). If you can wifi hotspot via a tether - then I'm buying a cheap android device and plugging it in and setting tether up.. Then you have a constant wifi connection. Couple that with a product like "Find my [Insert name of handset manufacturer]" or Prey ( https://www.preyproject.com/ ) - you have a cheap tracker as well should the missue borrow your car

Anyone know where I can get a single 19" Xtreme rim from - my VRS 245 didn't come with a spare wheel.

Someone being me and the wife. I bought the VRS, and she got the fabia. Well wewere hinting but our friends were not going to buy us them.

Its under the beam so not noticable.

Its this stuff, which my brother had lying around spare. Devil Eye by Finest-Folia Stripe Style Headlight Film for Skoda Octavia 1Z 5E RS Superb I II https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01IN0BQXS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_JE1aEb5YHAWDY

Well, these must be the best pressies ever.. I just couldnt get them under the tree..

Hi all. I just thought I'd pop in to say I am now a fully fledged member of the 245 Owners club, having picked up this sexy little number last thursday (the car I mean, not me).
