  1. On my 2002 octavia vrs have noticed when car is switched off and locked the time, mileage and trip are constantly on and causing a drain on the battery. I'm guessing should go off and if so what is the likely cause of this? Is it dials or something like an ignition switch? Any help appreciated
  2. My other half has a 2015 skoda rapid 1.6tdi and the two centre blowers when on flutter is definitely note changes in power and also after a while when a/c is on all of a suddenly just goes hot any help appreciated
  3. Thank you and is just a standard aerial on the car as came with tape player didn't think the mk1 vrs came with a sat nav
  4. I don't suppose anyone has a part number for the aerial mast gasket as sure mines allowing water ingress any help appreciated
  5. If I remember it will fit but you need to space the spiders as will catch the caliper not 100% sure I asked years ago
  6. Out with the comps in with the speedlines
  7. Hi a while ago my girlfriends Amundsen head unit started playing up or more specific satnav side of things. We can be driving and when come up to a T junction will just say "at the second" giving up no verbal clues so have to look down at the unit to see what it's on about. We've dropped it at skoda on two separate occasions for a update all under warranty but was also told they would replace the aireal and see if changed anything but now changed and aren't. But was told this unit has many known faults anyone else had any expirences with this unit or managed to rectify the issue
  8. One of the best bits I did was the TT/ S3 hub carriers, cast lower arms, and rack using powerflex bushes where needed made a big difference
  9. If push them down first then push the clip in they come off a doddle.
  10. Hello need to pick some brains over fitting my oversized inlet pipe how are people fitting them? Do you leave the metal cover in place that bolts to the front of the turbo housing if remember is a small rubber pipe on there or remove that and straight to turbo? Any help is much appreciated. ( is a vrs )
  11. What condition is the engine cover in?
  12. Ball joints, track rod ends, drop links all changed when the rack was and have been checked inbetween now and top mounts were changed for Leon Cupra R items four months ago. So not sure what else can be other than rack and pump
  13. Hi after some help as not sure on a issue. I have done the TT/S3 suspension set on my up mk1 Vrs had to change the rack about five months ago well roughly I think. Recently have noticed more so when the car is up to temperature that when been driving and I approach a corner the first initial turn has what can only describe as a stiff point before turning then is fine sort of but slightly heavier than normal and doesn't return to centre very well would you say its another worn rack or is it possibly steering pump? Any help appreciated
  14. Ah ok cool. Yeah already have to genuine items so covered there.
  15. Lloyd is that the esc beam relocation plates or something different all together? Plus who sells the shims?
  16. I brought meyle hd items and cant knock them
  17. It's been done and the camber is non adjustable on the beam
  18. Hi was servicing the car yesterday and discovered that on the rear I'm scrubbing the inside of both rear tyre's. I've lowered the car a small amount as still on standard wheels with 225/45/17 so my question is does anyone know if by using rear camber shims how far I need to go to get the wheels at the correct camber that they run true and wont scrub many thanks
  19. You can't go wrong with Bilstein but another one worth looking at are H&R which have a good build quality
  20. Hi some help needed as going nuts. In the last 6-7 months I have fitted TT/S3 steering rack TT pre recal arm's (in case makes a difference ) hub carriers with new wheel bearing's, hub's, track rod ends and shafts, drop links and powerflex bushed everything bar the back bush which was a meylee HD item and all new bolts so sub frame bolts and pinch bolts on the carriers . Last weekend fitted new Leon Cupra R top mounts and bushes. But I have a donk when im on lock and have noticed when it hit's a point and wheel spins it donks then in time with it slipping am I right in thinking I coukd have a knackered CV joint? Any other ideas welcome many thanks
  21. Looking at these pics where about's are you welding the box section into the subframe?
  22. Hi I've brought some side mount bucket seats and was wondering if anyone else has fitted these style and where to look for subframes and other parts many thanks
