My turn,06 octavia classic,1.6 Sahara sand in around inverness

Anyone used halfords for oil and filter change,£70 all in so thinking might give them a go,unless I hear a horror story.

Turn the key right once for driver door then turn right again for all doors and boot,hope this helps.

Thanks for all your help,I'll nip to the dealer tomorrow.soon as I get it done I'll put a pic on once again thanks all fo the help.gareth.

Did you order direct from skoda if not do you have a web address for where you got it fom,cheers Gareth.

Bingo that's exactly how it looks yes,it looks awfull is there a part I can buy to fill the gap,thanks for putting up the photo it's very good of you.

Ok hear goes,I took out the standard double din and put in a Sony which went in great but when I put the facia back on,the one that covers from the ash tray up to the stereo and around the heaters I found the adaptor I used to install the single din is to narrow on the sides.im not explaining very well sorry but the screws which held the original stereo are now showing so I'm needing a bigger adaptor on the sides.hope someone understands what I mean and can point me in the right direction.just remembered I bought the kit from a company in Paignton called ice if this helps,cheers Gareth.

thanks for all replys now i have a new problem the skid and abs lights have come on any ideas i was thinking new pads,cheers all gareth.

hi all i have a 2006,clasic model bottom of the range but never the less a great car,anyway my problem is the rear wiper moter it will work sometimes and the rest just nothing.you can here the arm click when you move it back to make the contact but no movemant would i be as wise just to change the motor and also whats the part number for the rear wiper as halfords wanted over £22 which is a bit steep.thanks for any help i get cheers gareth.

looking to change the speakers in my 1.6 clasic,2006 model,ive changed the head unit but now the front door speakers to something with a bit more punch.Also no rear speakers so thinking of a sub any thoughts or would a good set of front do the trick,gareth.

pressed the button in the car to lock doors and it fell all the way through,just need to know how to get the center console out,cheers.

gone off the idea of rear speakers so looking to upgrade the front ones for now then in a while maybe a sub,so my question is i have around £60 for some new front door speakers,the head unit is the standard stream so just need a little more base realy.

am i better keeping my standard head unit or fitting a new one as i need to wire up some rear speakers,pulling my hair out so any advice will be welcome.gareth.

so is it a case of fiting the speakers in the back and running the wires to the head unit,is there a space for the rear door speakers to fit into.was thinking of putting the front in the back and getting better ones for the front,thanks gareth.

is there a space in the rear doors to fit the ones from the front,also whats a good pair tp put in the front and is it easy to wire up cheers gareth.

hi all just bought a 2006 octavia fsi,noticed no sound from rear door speakers so took the head unit out to find no wiring to the rear doors.so looked at the doors to find no speakers,has anyone else had this problem with this model and would it be an easy-ish job to wire up some rear speakers.new to this site but what a vast amount of information here its great,many thanks gareth.
