Creaking sound from front of car-any ideas?
_Kenny_ replied to vRSuper1's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Would have thought something like a CV joint initially but this should be picked up easily by the dealer if it was -
How big is your "to do" list?
_Kenny_ replied to flat-eric's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Nothing major or adventurous! Clean up the two prongs on the coolant header tank to see if it stops the coolant temp warning light on startup Go around with the touch up stick Give the car a good detail, including claying Source and fit an OEM Stream MP3 unit (or better) to replace the aftermarket Blaupunkt the previous owner fitted -
We have the Maxi Cosi CabrioFix for my baby son and the Maxi Cosi PrioriFix for my 2 and a half year old. Both decent seats. My wife has the Maxi Cosi Tobi in her Corsa but doesn't rate it as highly as the PrioriFix

My rear wiper stopped working tonight too! -
Rear demist seems a bit naff

I was thinking the same on the drive home from work today. My wife's Corsa takes a few minutes and is completely clear! -
Had my timing belt replaced today.

What a fool, I mean believing what his manual says...!!!! I'll change mine shortly.My TFSI is 5 yrs old but only done 40k -
Megs Scratch X should also do the trick

Not uncommon unfortunately

The TFSI will run on normal absolutely fine, don't worry

95ron v 97 ron fuel test.
_Kenny_ replied to bulls20042002's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
I put Momentum in the VRS last week and I've been struggling to get 30mpg on the commute to work which I easily get with 'normal' unleaded. Never had an issue running the normal stuff -
Mines has been known to do the same. But my VRS is Silver...38k miles as well tho!
-
Noticed this with mine too. Only got a new set a year past April!
-
Agreed, perfect for a novice
-
Can't beat clean flaps....

As long as you and your passengers are ok, that's the main thing. Metal can be replaced

Very sweet! -
New style skoda badges fitted
_Kenny_ replied to JohnSTV6's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Wasn't keen on the new badges but they look good on the black and silver examples. I've never seen a taxi as well cared for as that one! -
Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 or Goodyear F1 Assy 2 ?
_Kenny_ replied to studmuffin's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
A mate of mine runs the Hankooks on his tiTTy and raves about them! He's not a hairdresser either.... -
Skoda seem to be useless on any issues regarding paint, whether it's on bodywork or the wheels. They will try anything to get out of paying. My experience nearly made me sell the VRS not long after I got it, however, the car really won me over. Just hope I don't have to deal with Skoda CS anytime soon
