Yes, I have on my FL VRS. I'll dig out the details and post them here later

The OEM TRW front disks were vented but NOT perforated

My aircon is no longer supplying ice cold air, even on 'LO' setting, and is hissing quite loudly. Is it simple a re gas that's required or is something else wrong? Any help/advice greatly appreiated.

Doesn't that merely tell you what has been done since the original settings were flashed. Not sure it'll tell me what the current setting of each value is currently set to??

Hi I've been using OBDEleven for some time and made a lot of changes to my car and always did it using adaptations. I've recntly made a couple of changes using the apps (one click change) and want to know what it actually changed. Does anyone know of a way I can 'download' a modules current settings at all? I'm sure I used to be able to do it in the Android version (perhaps my memory is failing me) but I can't seem to find a way to do it in the iOS version?

Hi Just wondered if any 2.0 TSI 230bhp owners have fitted a DTUK tuning box? If anyone has, I would be very Interested to know their thoughts on the results and also how easy it was or wasn't to fit??

Okay, as promised here are the instructions for coding the eyelashes to be on with DTRLs and then optional coding to make them flash in or out of phase with the indicators. These work on MY18 cars...maybe on MY20 too. Perhaps someone can confirm.

Sorry for the late reply.....I'll write it up and share it here later.....

Well, as soon as I have time I shall be jacking my car up and crawling underneath to check for sure but based on this evidence it would appear that my car does not have the VAQ after all. Feel cheated now!

Hmmmmm, I definitely do not have a module "32" .... the plot thickens

I have OBDEleven but not VCDS, can I still check. How else can I check otherwise....I was led to believe when I purchased that mine had the e-diff

So if you see this in the drive mode selection screen it would indicate the presence of a VAQ?

Good question and I'm not sure, what I do is generate the log and then email it to my email account. If my memory serves me right there's an icon (looks like an envelope) top right of the screen for this purpose.

Yes, all good advice, take a backup of all modules before you start and then if anything goes awry you can revert back to previous settings. I maintain an excel spread sheet for each module that has all of the settings (imported from the text files created by backup) with the default value, the modified value and, in a lot of cases, the English translation of the German terms. It makes it easier to see what you have modified and what you haven't and gives me peace of mind:

You need to do it via the adaptations. Connect the app to the device, press scan to scan the modules and then access the relevant modules to makes the required changes. There's a stickie in this forum with instructions for the things you want to do (HBA and TSR). If you need further help, just shout.

You could always buy mine

Ha, you say that but many years ago a friend of mine bought a VRS from a dealer in Wales only to find out much later (when trying to claim under warranty) that it was in fact a non UK Spec car, imported from the continent. He wasn't best pleased when Skoda UK said they wouldn't honour the warranty.

Happy to do a full strip down video.....as long as you foot the bill

Oh yes it does, see video IMG_3842.mp4

Actually, I assume you took that from this brochure where a 230 isn't even an option so the *2.0 TSI 245 Man + DSG only refers to the fact that it's not on the diesel and petrol with DSG only. SKODA_OCTAVIA_Pricing_and_Spec_JAN19.7eed374b63e2bc5abd44874dd4bd8c94.pdf

So how do you explain the fact that my 230 facelift has one then? Could it be a non UK spec car???? Just wondering now

So the e-diff or VAQ Is fitted to ALL Pre facelift 230's, some face lift 230's and ALL 245's to summarise.

?????

Sure, but you intimated that there was a difference between an e-diff and a VAQ when in fact they are one and the same!!!

The VAQ is an e-diff and is fitted to the 230 VRS as explained here : https://www.carthrottle.com/post/is-a-clever-diff-all-the-skoda-octavia-vrs-needed-for-greatness/ " The final item on the 230 menu, however, looks like it might just do the trick: VW Group’s Vorderachsquersperre (or VAQ, if you find that a bit of a mouthful) front differential lock. It’s the same thing you’ll find in a Seat Leon ST Cupra or a VW Golf GTI with the Performance Pack installed, and it has a justified reputation for completely changing your perception of what’s possible in a front-wheel drive car. It’s best thought of as one half of a Haldex four-wheel drive system, and is able to distribute power across the front axle as it sees fit. Anything up to 100 per cent can go to one wheel. Thanks to the Octavia’s more modest power output the VAQ isn’t quite as compelling as it is in the 276bhp Seat, but crikey, does it make a difference."
