odd bod

Just a quick update on this for you.... Took the car back to dealer (Faintree garage in Bridgnorth) who again could not find any fault via VAG diagnosticis. Spoke in detail to Steve Wedgebury who was extremely helpful. There have been similar problems on the Fabia Vrs it seems.... Steve has agreed to replace the throttle pedal and sensor under warranty for tomorrow. Lets see what tomorrow brings.....

Am having problems with my new VRS FL Octy which now seems to be stalling under load... I only purchased the car on 01/09/09. I took it back under warranty a few weeks back to my dealer who could not find any faults with it. No fault codes at all coming up. I took it back to the dealer because when lifing off the throttle, it was taking an eternity for the revs to come back down. Was told that it could be a blockage or throttle sensor problem which had cleared. Now the car seems to have a nasty, "flat spot" when accelerating at low revs. I have also noticed the car has a stutter at higer revs. Its a real pain at junctions when pulling away as the tendancy is to stall it. I also find that the car has a split second delay between depressing the throttle pedal and the engine winding up, noticably again when pulling away from idle. And ideas guys? Am taking it back again this Friday.......wanted any info which may be useful beforehand....

spot on! no pun intended. LED's are always on day or night. When switching side or headlamps on, the LED's simply go a bit dimmer....

manual gearbox every time....more feel for what the car is doing in my view....

Gearbox on mine is very smooth, is quite close ratio compared to my old mk1 vRS. Clutch is really light and smooth...

Have tried pressing and holding key fob - mirrors do not fold..:thumbdwn:

Have had all of mine in Black - as it matches the wife's Fabia! It was a toss up between Black Magic or Candy White - both look great...

....is not really too bad to keep clean either:rolleyes:

A few more...sorry about grainy images, but you get the idea:D

Dealer has just told me that he has sold all his September stock and the wait for a new vRS now is between 8 & 9 MONTHS!

Here we go.... Standard 2.0 T FSI

Faintree in Bridgnorth are the boys to go and see.

Am now the proud owner of my new 59 plate Octavia Estate vRS Facelift....with no spare wheel....:eek: Am currently looking on e-bay for a suitable space saver to chuck in the boot to replace the can of tyre weld:(. I am baffled by the different types of space saver out there. My car currently has the new look 18" Neptune Alloys on. Anybody have any idea about which space saver I should be looking out for. What will fit?

Its e-sure through confused.com.

got the paperwork through today....£191 paid.
