As first thing i apologize my english skills, but i hope that you understand me I just want to share my project with you! I am 22 years old dude from Finland and this is my third first gen Superb. I have also had 1U Octavia 1.8T 4x4 Hatchback, which is kinda rare here (never officially imported to Finland).. So, about this car. This was must to buy because of its specs (2.5TDI with automatic gearbox, full leather interior, nav with television-tuner, fridgerator on backseat armrest, etc...). Here is car right after i bought it. First thing of course was to lower it with coilovers which i had from my last Superb.. Car was in really bad condition. Very dirty from inside, got rust all over, windshield was cracked, headlight automatic range control didnt work, air condition pushed only hot air, drivers side driveshafts outer joint kept very bad sound and there was no tread left on tyres. Next i bought these OZ Michelangelo II 8,5 and 10x18" with good summer tires and fixed some other problems so that i can drive with car as daily. Just before winter i decided to fix all rusts and respray whole car. Paint was in horrible condition and in my opinion polishing wasnt enough to fix it. As car was painted, i decided to clean interior too. Here is picture before and after cleaning drivers seat. Floor carpet got also washed when seats were off! And here is cars condition today. Bought also new wheels to match shiny paintwork :sun: (Work Euroline DH 9 and 10x18"). There is also some little improvements like new style Skoda badges, smokey side blinkers, leds in licence plate and whole interior lightning.

Octavia A4 2004 Speedo And Fuel Gauge Fault
Axxu replied to airwaveskoda's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
I had same problem in my octavia my 2003. There was no fault codes, and tried to fix problem by changing speedo sensor. Checked also that wiring and fuses were ok. At last i had to change whole instrument cluster, that fixed the problem..
