I presume you’ve enabled the “remember me” button in the login page? Assuming so, do you have your browser set to clear the cache every time you exit the browser or site?

It’s also possible, given the number of error codes that it’s somewhat coincidental. Did the oil spill everywhere in the engine bay? Possibly in any fuses etc? Because that amount of sudden onset faults sounds like an electrical short

I’ve seen a couple of new Toyota land cruisers around the last couple of weeks. Looks like a Lego interpretation of a 90s bronco…

👋 Welcome along!

Hi, and welcome to the forum! Wish your joining wasn’t because of a break in though. I’m sure you’ll post about your fuse issues in the correct section, so I’ll be interested to see what issues you are having since the theft and work.

Good stuff for joining up, You ll find there’s now also several areas of the site that aren’t viewable without signing up, so loads more to explore now too 👍🏻

Evening! Welcome to the forum and glad to hear your another satisfied owner 🙃

*board room circa 2005… “So our mk2 Octavia is ready to start production” “Is there much leftovers from the mk1 production?” “Probably another 10thousand shells and all the panels, trims etc. we’ve thousands of engines left over too” “Hmmm… seems like a waste…” “I know, let’s just build em anyway but only sell them to taxi drivers until we run out!” *board room circa 2010 “So, we started our mk2 Octavia Face Lift sales last year.” “Great” “Oh and we finally ran out of mk1 parts!” “Thank Jesus. Now start designing the mk3 version.”

Hi and welcome to the forum! Hope you find an answer to your problems, and if you don’t just post a one ask 👍🏻

Morning Leon! How did you find life with the HS? My Brother in Law has a ZS full electric for 3yrs now and he’s been very happy with it.

+1 to checking the colours. Don’t assume the part number lookups are correct. Also be very careful about “equivalent” or “compatible” items. The weight distribution between diesels and petrols is different. Also a lot of parts websites think that because a part is for a golf it’s then gonna fit an Octavia. But again, the ratings are very model and spec specific. Just because it fits doesn’t mean it actually works.

Same engines, but not the same chassis. The mk2 octy is built on a modified version of the mk4 golf chassis. Pretty sure the 2010 Passat (B6?) is the first generation be on the MQB chassis, along with mk5/6 golf etc, that Skoda got to use for the mk3 octy.

👋 Welcome along! Hope you enjoy the forum as much as you’re enjoying the car!

Hi, And welcome to the forum! Yeah, there’s a lot of infotainment knowledge around these days as well as everything else related to these cars so you you shouldn’t have any trouble finding out just about anything!

Hi and welcome to the Forum. If you do a search or ask the question in the Karoq section the guys will send you in the right direction.

Evening and welcome to Brisky! Have a look through the project threads and the mk3 section you’ll get loads of tips and inspiration 👍🏻

I’d 3rd? 4th? The injector dying as the issue… Been there had that, paid the bill 🙄

Have you had any error messages about the dpf? The light coming on and then going sounds like normal regeneration activity. It’s when it comes on and stays on you need to start thinking about forcing a regen. And even that’s easy to do - Good long clear ish motorway stretch, get over 40mph with revs at 2000-2500rpm for about 15-20mins. And have more than 1/4 tank of fuel.. ECU should take care of it then.

Glad you’re happy with the Kamiq! My wife has an Arona so basically the same thing in a different dress and loves it so much she’s in her second

Hi Martin, Welcome to Briskoda! You will definitely learn a lot around here 😂

At a guess it’s a CAYC engine? In which case it absolutely has an egr system , the cooler is buried down the back of the engine. Easiest way to get to look at it is from underneath with the tray off. Lumpy idle during a regen is it trying to complete the cycle which should be done “Between 2000-2500 rpm at a speed above 60kph” usually taking about 15-20mins at that speed and rpm consistently. I find 4th gear at 90kph is a nice middle ground unless I can get to a motorway.

Hi. 👋 Welcome to the forums! Wish someone would give me a car 😂

I don’t want to react… great that some people might be able to get their hands on bits they need… sad it’s one less mk1 in the fastest colour now gone to the graveyard…
