  1. I had a massive air leak in an inlet hose of some sort. Car now all sorted, idling perfect and no dash lights!! Happy days!! Had the service reminder reset too. Downsides. Change of situation now means I'm going down to one car so I've put the skoda up for sale on eBay. I can't advertise it on this site, how do I get it on the sales page? Do I have to be a paying member?
  2. All 4 coils got replaced last week by skoda for free
  3. No I didn't unplug it. I'm guessing something else is up with the car as the old DV seemed to be fine.
  4. Ok new 710n fitted, old 710n removed (who knew) but management light still on. Car still drives ok. Idles a bit wayward every so often. I've cleaned the throttle but didn't change anything either. Oh and the old DV works fine!!
  5. When upgrading to tt brakes where did you get a set of calipers and carriers from and how much were they?
  6. I've ordered an oem 710n one. Thanks for all your help.
  7. It's failed hence I'm replacing it. And I'm pretty sure my engine is mapped
  8. Hi again folks. So I'm gonna replace my standard DV but don't want to spend £110 on a forge item. Is this one just as good/do the same job? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SKODA-OCTAVIA-SEAT-LEON-IBIZA-CUPRA-1-8T-RECIRCULATING-DIVERTER-DUMP-VALVE-RECIR-/380446105058?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item58945adde2 Or do you guys have another recommendation? Thanks
  9. No but I was waiting in the showroom. I wasn't bothered about them cleaning it.
  10. Coil packs replaced free of charge by skoda morecombe. Happy customer there. Management light came back on driving home though. So I'll get the DV checked out at a local garage and replaced if needs be. Car still idles a bit funny. Will give it all a good clean out.
  11. Had all 4 coil packs replaced today. No questions or hassle. Took 45 minutes. One happy skoda customer. All done at skoda morecombe.
  12. My car is having the coil packs replaced free of charge by skoda morecombe this Friday. I sent them an email in which they replied straight away. Will post Friday evening or Saturday morning how I get on. My car is a 2002 1.8t 4x4 with 87k on the clock
  13. Not sure. He cleared the light and nothing has come back yet. Still won't pick up. I'll get the coil packs changed at skoda and see how I get on after that. Will post at the weekend the results!! Thanks for all your help so far.
  14. Dump valve (DV) it said on the diagnostics. Guy at garage said it'll flag up due to the misfire as the turbo still builds up boost?
