Car finishes tomorrow on eBay!!

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?

All 4 coils got replaced last week by skoda for free

No I didn't unplug it. I'm guessing something else is up with the car as the old DV seemed to be fine.

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!!

When upgrading to tt brakes where did you get a set of calipers and carriers from and how much were they?

I've ordered an oem 710n one. Thanks for all your help.

It's failed hence I'm replacing it. And I'm pretty sure my engine is mapped

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

No but I was waiting in the showroom. I wasn't bothered about them cleaning it.

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.

Had all 4 coil packs replaced today. No questions or hassle. Took 45 minutes. One happy skoda customer. All done at skoda morecombe.

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

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.

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?

Ok had diagnostics done. Engine misfiring on all 4 cylinders and problem with DV. My friend at the garage said all 4 coil packs are probably to blame as I disconnected them. The DV is due to the misfiring so not a problem there. I've phoned skoda in morecombe and my car is booked in to have all 4 coil packs changed under recall as my car hasn't been done. The garage said if the management light is on due to the coil packs it'll all be done free of charge. So if all goes well then happy days. Just got to get to the garage without breaking down! Will let you know how I get on with the dealer at the weekend!

Not had diagnostic done. Eml light is on. Flashed once whilst trying to accelerate. Where is the diverter valve and what does it do?

Tried the sparks and gapped to 0.8 mm but the car is still the same. It revs freely stood still but under load struggles under hard acceleration. Not so much a trumping noise. Feels like the car isn't letting itself accelerate freely. Like a soft thud but lots in a very quick succession and holds back. Checked hoses as best I could and they all seem ok.

Just to add the car will rev freely to the red line out of gear standing still and only does this under load

Yeah think it is. Feels too quick for only 150bhp

Hello again. (4x4 octavia turbo) Ok so I've changed the 'Y' shaped hose, changed the oil and filter and changed the spark plugs for the NGK ones. They are gapped at 0.28. The car now makes a trumping noise and backs off when boost builds. What have a done? I did undo a few hoses to get the y hose in but did them all up. Is it something to do with my sparks?? Oh and the eml flashes sometimes when it holds back.

Ok thanks buddy

Would this split hose cause my idle problems and would this cause my engine management light to be on? Also what hose is this so I know what to ask for to get it replaced!!! Split is worse than it looks in picture. Thanks

The split is worse than picture. Also what is this hose called so I can get it replaced!!
